I use epoxy. But, like I said, it would've looked better has I applied more on the inside. I frankencased, so hotglue was a must. I might have overdone it, but, It's in bodywork.marshallh wrote:It's a good start, and an improvement over your last one. Here are a few suggestions:
1. Learn to use bondo. Once you get that down, try cutting some wood panels to give the case some curves. Curves are good. Straight edges aren't.
2. Let off on the hot glue. Yes, it is great stuff, but when you use too much of it, just wait til a hot day and your portable melts apart. Use metal mounting brackets and screws. If you must, use wood or plastic supports along with hot glue. If you can see the hot glue in the inside, you're using too much.
3. See if you can get a file set and a drill press. You can get nice button holes by drilling a small pilot hole and then slowly filing the hole bigger.
I also have a drill press and files.
I just choose not to use them.
