So you want a custom controller?
So you want a custom controller? Posted on: 12.09.2010 by Merlyn Komula Hey guys I recently got into making my own faceplates for just about anything, and decided to share this with the djranking
s community!All of this can be done by you the consumer and in the long run can and will save you tons of time and money! Create any custom part, box or faceplates! I bought a dvd from ebay, and built my own CNC router machine! If your clueless how I was at first, check it out! http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...STRK:MESELX:IT Enjoy! SS | |

Something to have as an installation and used for stage performance. Nothing to throw in a backpack and set up in a dj booth. Will start on this begining of next year. Lucky for me I just need to make the concept and the engineer will do all the work. |

Merlyn Komula 13.09.2010 | @djfrogstar Yeah the pic ur showing, thats like 100000000$ lol And about selling different layouts, I need to a get a website together with maybe flash intergration so that each customer can build and design their own layouts! I feel that (no pun intended) djranking s is very limited to what the offer! So I want the consumer to design their own, and at a reasonable price! will keep you posted! SS |
Jacquiline Dua 12.09.2010 | Yeah Milling machines are bad ass.. We have one in our shop in australia... but a different kind thats more orientated for 3d stuff and making molds So how are you going to price your stuff? Would be neat to have 4 midi fighters built into one crazy box |
Merlyn Komula 12.09.2010 | I bought the dvd which shows how to build one, where to get parts and the ins and outs of cnc machinery! Very informative! yeah I'm gonna post some pics tommorow! |
Jacquiline Dua 12.09.2010 | So is the router machine fully operational? any examples of a controller faceplates you've gotten cut out yet... sounds interesting.. |
