Hi and a quick question

Hi all,

I have been lurking here for a while, admiring all your work.

Recently I bit the bullet and bought  and a MB-6582 kit from Smash TV and the build seems to be going well.

I am building a custom flexply case with panel mount sockets, which is where my problem arises.

I would like to have the CS laser cut, and I have a friend of a fiend who will do it. I remember seeing that someone had put a link to a fpd file converted CAD, but I can not for the life of me find it again. If anyone can point me to it I would be greatly appreciate it.

PS. I would like to thank all that helped to create such a useful resource, as this is the first occasion that I have had a problem I could not solve with a bit of searching. :-[

Welcome aboard MrTrebus! :wink: You’re first name doesn’t happen to be “Hans” by any chance?

Oddly contrary to Wilba’s statement in some thread I can’t seem to find the .dxf on the Wiki :o This might help though: http://rnd.psychonauticresearch.com/6582Panels/6582Panels-DXF.zip found here http://www.midibox.org/forum/index.php/topic,12676.msg106871.html#msg106871. You might wanna read the whole thread to make sure that’s really what you are looking for.

Off site documentation, tut tut, even I know better than that :wink:

Thanks for the quick reply, I will look it over when I am at home.

The name comes from an old BBC documentary about an old Polish man who collected junk from skips and stored in his house. My mates see a resemblance as I find it hard not to have a nose about when I see a skip.

My entire midibox case, 13mm ply frame, aluminium tread plate end cheeks  and flexiply skin have been scavenged from skips.

It will hopefully not look like it came from a skip.
