Hi there, finally I managed to finish my mbSEQ with custom diy wood case included

Update: added the back panel layout as pdf by lukas412 request, feel free to use it!

Attached File

mbSEQV4 back panel.pdf (325.36K)
Number of downloads: 11
Inside the case:

Not quite done with it though as there's this strange thing the lcds do after a couple of minutes:

Both lcds go dim (characters and backlight) in like 1 second intervals, 1 second regular brightness, 1 second dim

I'm using a brick psu labeled as 9v, 800mA, maybe not enough power?

Awesome!

That little bench for the SD card socket to sit on: EPIC LULZ!

I like the way that SD cards appear to have supplanted the bankstick. Your case looks so good that I'm conflicted about whether or not to go with the aluminum chassis group buy. I have access to all the tools to do something like this.

Had to do it like that because the sd card pcb (from sparkfun) comes without mounting holes

Davo:

If you have the tools and the time go for it, lots of fun!

julienvoirin:

Just changed the psu to a more reliable one, 9v 1A, everything working fine now it seems!

Nothing fancy: pine + mahogany stain + water based polyurethane for finish

For the record:

It turns out julienvoirin was right: "have you though to 7805 getting too hot and then not delivering enough power ? "

Added a diy heatsink (no way to fit a proper one in the available space) to the 7805 and the lcd problem is gone for good, whee!
