Mod of the Month September 2011

R-kaid-6 by quizz_kid

Project Log: Here
The final nominee this month is from forum user quizz_kid - another relative newcomer to bit-tech, and the only wood-based project on show this month.


R-kaid-6 is based around some modest PC hardware, but quizz_kid is planning to turn it into a striking arcade machine in a wooden case.


The early renders show a hexagonal case and large gamepads. The case quickly started to take form too, and these veneer-covered MDF panels were the first components to be secured together.



The game pad above has recently started to take shape too, and we're loving this detail on the side of the case. This project has already come a long way since it was started a month ago. If you'd like to vote for quizz_kid's wooden arcade machine, then head over to our forum.

That's all for this month! We'll be back next month with another edition of Mod of the Month, and six new projects that will all be shouting for your votes.
