Nah - the My Threads have gone upwards of 200 pages. 
Meet might be cool, but I don't have much else to show... Currently doubling the size of my house!

meets don't have to be about showing off our stuff.. yeah that's a part of it.. but we can also jsut hang out.. and talk about what we want to do.. or could do.. or should do.. give advice.. blah blah..
basicly like we do at 2600

Hey yall. My girlfriend likes my setup so much that she wants one of her own when she gets a new car this summer, so guess what, I'll be building it! I've got some cool ideas for this one. The best part is helping pick out a car with the carputer in mind. I'm going to need some plexiglass and someone with some tips on how to work with it, I've never done it before. If anyone, like PatO, has some tips for me on where to get some, hit me up. See you all at the next meet, whenever it'll be.

the ASAP part is tough for me .. I've been getting fairly good with plexi .. I have a case in my bench right now for a HTPC .. it's made using 2 peices of plexi .. one covers 5 sides! .. then a back panel .. still in R&D though ..
anyway for jetta: bending is the way to go.. get some stuff form home depot or lowes . if you need any help let me know.. a steady hand and a touch work well.
Nitro: what's your timeline?

Bending plexi? Do tell! I have one of those little blowtourch things and have been successful bending small pieces (1"), but don't think it could provide enough heat over a 12"-14" span to bend nicely. What's your secret?
I went with the Aluminum because of rough edges. Even when you score it, it's very difficult to get corners to match up perfectly (within 1mm tolerance). I've found that using glue to fill the gaps also looks shoddy. Using fine buffing materials to smooth out the edges is simply beyond my patience... Hence, aluminum.
Go with plexi larger than 1/8" - it's flimsy and cracks easily when dropping a dozen 2x4's on it (I'm remodeling my house). Something closer to 1/4" would be sturdy as a tank!
