Not started yet as still in planning stage and I still have quite a bit of hardware to secure.

I've got some very strong ideas re the content and coulour scheme, but things may still change between now and when I start

I guess perhaps early next year before the build gets underway.

I'll be opening a proper build thread when gets underway.

so its now past early next year...pull your finger out dubs i was looking forward to this one :)
 
Evening all

Well you'll be pleased to know that I should be starting this project in the next few weeks or so.

I'm pretty much decided on the colour scheme but like a lot of my stuff I'll be led by the project as it progresses.

Still have to source components etc so a little while to go yet.

Meanwhile a few more pics and thanks for being patient. (thats a 120mm fan beside it to give scale).

Some kind of pulsating glow, maybe from cathodes or LED's, would look awesome, try and incorporate a kind of mini light show?
 
Nah not dead but I will be if I start it before i've decorated the Bathroom and showerroom. Mrs Dubs insists.

Should be getting going soon enought though, at least get the kit inand start the planning even if i'm not out in the garage with the dremmel.

Thanks for being patient
 
I could always put you in contact with Mrs Dubs if you'd like to try to persuade her otherwise

You feeling Brave???
 
Well thanks for being patient. I now have official permission from Mrs Dubs to start this project.

Permission was granted about 30 mins ago and already i've got the case out in the garage and got things under way.

Why the sudden granting of permissions? Cos I've just had to fork out over a grand for a new boiler, shower, sink, tiles, taps, etc and that's not counting the Plumber.

Worth every penny I say as I can now get on with this.

I have a reasonable clear Idea about what I want to do now, but as anyone who has modded will tell you things tend to evolve along the way. And by evolve I mean you have to adapt what you want to do to what can actually be done.

You can plan as much as you like but things will still bite you in the bum.

It's also nice to let the build go it's own way to a certain extent. I'm not saying modding is an organic process or anything quite so deep, but projects do take on a life of their own as they progress.

Ok enough of the ethereal stuff and a few pics to get things started.

I should add that i'll be using two cameras in this project depending on what i'm doing. the phone cam will be on hand at all times to get quick snaps as I go along, but the main updates will be with my new baby, my Canon 60D. No i'm not minted, i've saved for a heck of a long time and added to it a collection of various Birthday monies. I would have gotten it sooner but apparently you're not allowed to sell human organs on e-bay, even if they're your own.

First up a few of the workshop.
