Big Blue Saw Review/My Custom DM2 Controller

[TABS]

Sorry I didn't see this until today. I'm glad the panel I made worked out well for you. The controller looks great so far; keep us updated on your progress!

It's 95% done, all I need to do is mount the 2nd jog wheel, and add some risers for the top plate. Its fully mapped with the x-session pro, I messed around on it for about an hour today.

I'll post up pics tomorrow when I get my cam from my brother.

Haha nice

I had the same idea of putting the X session between the DM2 at first

But then decided to go with two separate controllers more like CDJs so I could keep my X session to use with other things

Meh; good enough for now. I'll get the jogs hooked up when I get some time.
I also gotta add a slide pot still, but thats getting ordered when I get the rest of my V7 clone stuff.
My total cost will be under $150(including the x-session pro).

Sweet. How did you do the white coloring? We could probably have done a white opaque acrylic if that's what you wanted.

this is ace i have been trying to make my own custom faceplate for this http://www.djtechtools.com/forum/sho...ght=100th+post
controller in a flight case, whats the best thing to create a dxf drawing? the plastic fabricators I have found in the UK is not as cheap as what you got yours for, i have been quoted £80 for a piece half the size of yours (it equates to about $125-130).

Lol its like 5 coats of white and clear, but its already starting to chip Next time I'll be sure to send you an email for a specific color. I got a few ideas roaming around in my head for new controllers(and a few ideas for you to make some $$$(feel free to PM me on this) but ATM I am focusing on getting school squared away.

@ Herb

To create the DXF drawing I used eMachineShop, then just exported the file. Their prices are absurd, but the program is ace. The closest to AUTOCAD I could find.

BigBlueSaw also has a DXF program on their site, if that is too confusing email/PM Simon and I'm sure he could get you a quote. $125 for a piece that small is pretty absurd.

Cheers man had a look on big blue saw, i think it atomatically made dxf and saved it on my computer (not sure where) i would get it off bigblue but they quoted me about the same $122. then shipping would also cost lots to the uk. cheers for the help
Edit: wait a minute checked a few different materials got a quote of $70 including shipping for the design below in 3mm black plastic which i think it pretty awesome price from the states
thanks again.
