I hope to complete it this week. I need to redesign the case a bit and get the materials to build it. I decided to go with a wood case because it will cost less and I can round it so it's more comfortable.

It was a pain to move, but I think it'll be worth it.

Okay... I didn't complete it. *sarcasm on* Yay for my brother taking over the workbench and trying to wire up some flash triggers *sarcasm off*. I have no idea when I will be able to complete it. Whenever that time comes, I hope it'll be soon.

Okay, I'm finally back to work progressing faster. I got the case partially completed, and she's a wooden beauty.

Nooooooo! Dont stain red oak thats a beautiful wood! The case looks great. Just put a few coats of lacure of clear epoxy (I personally like marine quality) so it says in good shape.

Red oak is beautiful, but I do want it a little deeper red. I'm definitely going to at least put a few coats of finish on it. So far the case has taken probably over 20 hours of cutting, gluing, dremeling, and sanding. I do not suggest this type of case for newcomers to portablizing at all. That is unless you have some good wood working skills. The slits for the buttons and the little circle inset were actually easy compared to allot of the other parts.

Also, dremels rock!
