Lol i like the size of your mouth
out of curosity tom did you ever think about using the cosmos 2 and painting it white for Orca and why did you choose the stryker?
btw beautiful job so far =D
Ive said before I wanted a case to work on, other than painting it the Cosmos 2 didnt really inspire me. When Orca is done its not going to look like any other Stryker is it.......

I agree with that Tom.
Anyone can buy a case and get it painted. But to spend time and customize it to every personal aspect, that is what gets me right into my builds.
Having a case that is in a league of its own, and having it different from anyone else. That is what the end goal of a modder is
And making it look pretty too ^_^Tom, after the vid update, you aluded to bolting the case back together using
tinted stainless steel bolts. were those going to be a buttonhead socket screw?
do you know what process they are using for the tinting? 'cuz all i can find are
zinc oxide in white, yellow or black (rusters) and all the stainless is too
phoo-phoo shiney. very interested in the processing. my arc midi is un-rivoted
and looking for a solution.
have you finalized the front panel logo and media? your update was still up in the
air on media and "look"? ive looked into some air-brush artists (t-shirt cats) and
like a tattoo they seem to get detail in small places (ie lettering and fonts).
inspirational build, Tom.. really like the full-blown effort and processes you are
using.
so in true TTL fashion... moah pix! LOL!

No idea on the memorial logo/part yet. One of the YouTubers suggested I bin the switches on the top and put it there, and I have to say its an idea Im liking.

I think that's a great idea I think. But one question: if you do that, how are you going to turn it on? I know there are power buttons available at specialtech, like the lamptron ones. Which you can find in the "Switches" section.
EDIT: Two of these as power and reset switches should do

Ive got a selection of switches here anyways dude, location is the only thing I would need to decide and then pick the right switch for the job.
Tom,
Just watched your video about the Orca update for October and the plate. I did some very very quick paint pictures of the logo in both white and black which others may be able to see the idea of what you are talking about.
I have also included a vandal switch for the start. Just for a different thought really without having to play with other switches should you not want.
Anyways yeah I will stop rambling. Great mods.
Kind Regards,
Adam

Cheers whosbawss,
I watched the video like an hour ago and thought I would do a quick sketch to see what it would look like. It was literally 2 mins in paint of all things to do that.
If I had photoshop on work comp I may have done it on there and then added it to a picture of the standard case to give a better idea but alas nothing installed.
Kind Regards,

Sadly the Vandle switch idea wont work because I need the PCB below the old switches to stay there. I think the plate on its own looks awesome and will allow a larger font though
