looks really good dude

Cheers guys, just had a series of setbacks again. about 6 companies that specialize in laser cutting have said they cant cut it because of the level of detail. Special tech have quoted £50 for the side which seems decent but they have stopped responding to emails so that rather sucks. So far nothing but bad luck with this build, so much for relaxing...

just when I had started researching art deco designs, chilled pc have said they can do both sections for £85! score!

Nice one! Are they a European company?

Based in Bridgend of all places, 5 min from my old office. Shame I am the other side of the country now.

Yup chilled PC. He has done a decent job for £50! needs a bit if work and tlc but should be good after painting.

that looks really cool

 

[coob]

Have to say, nice job man! Love the close ups of the blue/black sparkling pieces Looks amazing

 

[Binky]

Another quick update. Got the parts in the post yesterday and they look rather good. The window needs a lot of work to look like it should but it still looks ok now.

 

[Amesy]

I'm quite surprised to find that I actually quite like that. I didn't think I would. Good work dude.

 

[Binky]

Still waiting for chilled PC to fabricate up the small peices that are missing from the window. Once that is done, let the spraying begin! (again)
