Breaks my heart, but I'll have to kill her.
01/09/16 06:15 AM


My cab with the rotating control panels.

Since my last move, I can't get it working. That, and her beautiful neon lights got broken in the move as well, so not only does she not work, she looks like ass. The lights she had are no longer source-able.

Some wires got dorked out of the panels too... I think the little ones were curious, not sure, and I've trouble shoot the shit out of this cab, and can't get it right.

The controls don't behave normally. IPAC blink self-test indicates a problem with a specific button... even though said button no longer has any attached wires... so it may be the ipac which is f'd.

But with three different control panels, where each panel shares wirting with the other two panels in parallel, so any one of the three panels can work... and all those wires shoved through a hollow axis so the panels can rotate... it's a wire-trouble-shooting hell.

It will be less work just to rebuild her... into three separate cabs. The ass-load of work to make that rotating control panel was too much to ever repeat... I could have built an army of cabs in the time it took me to build this ONE.

Sadly... this weekend... I begin her de-res.
