| Chau Honrado 24.08.2010 | really nice work! ridiculously high level of finish and a really clean look, looking forwards to seeing the next set of flipped cases |
| Eldora Longchamp 03.08.2010 | wow. i can't believe this thread doesn't have 300 pages! That is some FINE FINE Work. Incredible. |
| Onie Sarandos 04.08.2010 | Excellent, excellent work. Very impressive, and, more importantly, inspiring! |
| Lilliana Perris 03.08.2010 | Yeah, this is a damn good job! The finish is excellent, looks great! Well done seeing that through mate! |
| Irwin Ney 03.08.2010 | Lets rate this thread with 5 stars @extraclassic Maybe you could upload some pictures to the community ? Some people (like me) doesn't have access to public filesharing urls at work... That can limitate your viewers :P |
| Jacqulyn Shoemo 02.08.2010 | I gotta bump this to the top so that everyone can see your fine work. |
| Janyce Henningson 04.07.2010 | Mate that's an awesome job - jealous as fck |
| Junita Giacopelli 04.07.2010 | can you tell me where you got the red foam you used for lining the cases. also, any chance you can provide us with the case measurements, im no expert when it comes to woodwork and i could use the help. cheers |

I'm glad you've got this baby nailed. It looks (and here's a word I never use) awesome.
A quick question, did you get XPadder to work the pots or did you end up using something like GlovePie? Hope you end up having lots of fun with these babies. Xpadder went out the window as soon as i decided to add a couple of knobs to each case. I ended up using Glovepie which works great.
Good work - the level of effort and detail on these is amazing. I would've liked to have seen the decks flipped 90' - but if you ain't scratchin', you don't need 'em flipped...
Funny you should mention flipping the decks as a fellow DJ friend of mine has just asked me to build him a pair that way.
Man you deserve a blog post on the main site...
This project is awesome! Congrats! Do you plan to do a tutorial on how you did the adaptation of the PS2 controllers to a arcade button controller?
I was wondering this too; I assume you took them apart and wired up the arcade buttons to where the controller buttons were, and then use a HID-MIDI translation software?
When i start making the next set of cases i will post an in depth tutorial with lots of pictures.
Hell of a job man. I really like how you made enough room for the laptop.

| Irwin Ney 02.07.2010 | I didn't check it yet, I will make sure to check when I get home |
| Onie Sarandos 02.07.2010 | Nice job man! I luv seeing the chronology of the pictures, which show the progresion of the project-well done! |
| Joan Kollmorgen 02.07.2010 | Thanks guys |
| Antonetta Wikel 02.07.2010 | Incredible work. Hurry up and finish so you can take my order for the cases I need. Good form, really well thought out. |
| 02.07.2010 | that's so damn fresh! |
| Joan Kollmorgen 02.07.2010 | A few more pictures. Everythings wired and working just need to get some flightcase hardware (angle,corners,handles and catches etc.) Ended up spraying the Xponent and replacing knobs - still got to get some fader caps Built a laptop stand for the Xponent case plus fitted both power supplys into back of case Laptop fits in the case too Just making a few mappings in traktor now |
| Joan Kollmorgen 20.06.2010 | Heres a few photos of the components being used to build this project. When i ordered the gamepads off flea bay i thought i was getting 2 seperate gamepads but when they arrived i noticed they were linked together. I figure this is a good thing as i will only use 1 usb slot on the laptop. Heres the rest of the components. And the arcade buttons. Gonna start putting it all together later today. |
| Joan Kollmorgen 20.06.2010 | Update. Gave the deck cases 4 coats of Tuff Cab Paint and fitted the foam. Still got a little more work to do on the Xponent case. I'm very pleased with how the paint went on. It's got a textured kind of finish and i get the feeling it will live up to it's name. |

where are you getting the new knobs for the xponent? i've got an xsession pro and would like some better feeling knobs.
Ive got to drill the recess deeper and then make the knobs fit :eek: |
