I had a friend on facebook contact me to ask if I could make a cover for a zx950 style amp he was making. It sounded interesting and fun and it took a little bit of work but I think it came out looking amazing. I have also been experimenting with adding color to the engraving.
To practice the bends and get a jigg ready for it I decided to make a cover for the power core I won in a waffle. This was designed and built by jason campbell to 66.6 farads and I realized with a little work I could make a new cover for it. The problem there was that then I needed to make the inside look pretty and even pg never intended for that originally. I made the copper electrodes and rerouted some wiring to hide it and covered the rest with tech flex. I also experimented with the gold inlay and I am really happy with how it came out although right at the end I wish I had added a volt meter instead of the pg logo in the top left.
This is hidden in the very back corner
and here there is a little pg logo photo bombing the tri-lights.
For some reason the pic of the other side didn't load where it says it was designed/built by jason. Sometimes imgure seems to take a little bit when it wants to.
what else can I say I am a grumpy asshole most of the time.
Holy shit guys that looks amazing! This is the God-Tier fabrication work that made this forum special back in the day. Crazy to see what you guys can do with your fancy new equipment!!

wow, that came out pretty awesome! nice work on that! how much to make a clear cover for my power core 20?
I don't have anymore of the little aluminum tri-light inlay as I got that a while back on here, but the rest of it would probably be around $125-150 area.
I was happy with how both of these came out.

No longer really "in tune" with the audio industry, and probably have not been for some time.

todays project was a small roadtrip for the amp I have been dreaming of for the mustang
Now I just need a nice digital EQ/cross-over with 10 channels(helix/masconi/ect) so I can use my old Morel Ti Elite 9-5-1 components up front with some morel Ultimo Ti 12s for subs
