CBG Posted September 9, 2009 Share Posted September 9, 2009 Well how do you plug in the power cord? Maybe just leave the power on all the time... and then plug it in at the wall? Pretty technical haha Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Intell-I-Gence Posted September 9, 2009 Share Posted September 9, 2009 Hey question for blodders, what material was it that you used as the surfaces for your unit? was it mdf or something else? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
defanutley Posted September 10, 2009 Share Posted September 10, 2009 I have made my own dj console ,A very rewarding project,just still havent got my head round the picture host bit yet Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blodders Posted September 12, 2009 Author Share Posted September 12, 2009 my turntables stay on all the time as does the mixer only cause i'm lazy as for the material it is plywood i have a bit of a love hate relationship with MDF.it is highly toxic to work with and doesn't give that lovely warm wood finish that i was after next time i will use a thicker ply though this one had a few issues with warping as you see it it end up costing me around $300 form bunnings including the belt sander Def - to post and image host it on some thing like face book (great cause i shrinks them i to a usable size) right click on the image a select 'save image location' then click on the IMG tag above on the repy window and paste the images url (should end in .jpg) and click the IMG tag again and you have posted an image would love to see both your designs and projects Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blodders Posted September 13, 2009 Author Share Posted September 13, 2009 what are those speaker stands? they are wickednice work looks like a solid build. that's the biggest problem with cdjs is you require front loading access.CBG - i've had some basic skills but nothing special.

Intell-I-Gence Posted September 14, 2009 Share Posted September 14, 2009 nah real nice job man.... now i just gotta pull mine off hahaha i dunno where to put my speakers though :S are they better off right in front of me where i don't seem to get the full sound or somewhere else in the room a lil further away from me... and probably behind me :S Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

defanutley Posted September 15, 2009 Share Posted September 15, 2009 mate its 170 cm wide, 90 cm high and 60 cm across (with out speaker stands) and I would suggest using straight poles for the speakers to save more room Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CBG Posted September 15, 2009 Share Posted September 15, 2009 wow, it doesn't look that small. does it vibrate much?? how did you join it all together? Im impressed with the slide outs, very nice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
defanutley Posted September 16, 2009 Share Posted September 16, 2009 nope its solid as a rock , but it does weigh a fair bit , lots of nails and glue to keep it solid ,and yes the slide outs are good for space saving Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
