Doesn't Sasha usually use a laser cutter for his projects?

[stryd_one]

yes he does, that was what I meant. Sasha has to deal with a lot of very unusual situations in his home, since the recent wars.... I guess that it's small compensation to have easy access to CNC despite this.

VEry nice buttons.

Do you make them at yourself or let you make them some where else

[Sasha]

Thank you.

I`m designing, gluing, painting, sanding and polishing buttons myself. Everything else does laser cutter.  ;D

i was just looking at your photos on flickr, and: i've seen one of those huge flying insects in france! i thought it was a humming bird at first (till my girlfriend was proved right!) but i think it's a type of moth. did yours hover?

ps: excellent buttons too! ;D

[Sasha]

I also thought it was humming bird until I come very close to it. Never seen it before even I lived half of my life at the coast. Moth you say.. yes, it hovers just like that.  ;)

Those buttons are freeking amazing!

You ever considered selling them? Would that be viable?

I would definitely be interested in getting my hands on some of those for my next project!

Hello Sasha,

I am planning to make Pioneer djm 800 and cdj 1000 clones (with MIDIbox64e), and your approach () to make illuminated buttons seems reasonable for play/cue, effect and cue buttons like Pioneer stuff has.

Only question: what material is this? There are lots of “Acryl†types, what particular do you use?

I think something is available in our local stores (e.g. http://www.tuplex.lt/en/reklama.htm), but would like to be more sure before starting to hunt materials and someone to cut it right (BTW is there similar material easier for cutting in home conditions, I mean without laser :).

Thanks in advance,

Zygis

Now that I have seen what Ponoko can do, this looks like a perfect thing for them to make and their "Opal" material looks almost identical to Sasha's. So Sasha, which of your designs works best in your opinion? Which one offers the least required clearance between the underlying PCB and the front panel?
