Several projects are well under way and I spent some time case building this weekend.  I realized that most of my projects actually start out by visualizing how the completed piece or gear will look.  I then sketch this out and make sure that I order the necessary hardware for the cases.  Often times while building the circuit the controls and layout will change, but I try to stick to the original sketch as much as possible.

I’m trying a couple different case configurations to match my original concept sketches.  Here you can see the Stepped Tone Generator (aka - Atari Punk Console) original sketch and then beginning case build.

Next steps are to sand and finish the wood, Cut, bend and drill the control panel. Then print and attach the lables.  Going to try to accompnish all the this week so I can assemble and complete next weekend.
