Stage 6 – Moving

Well, not quite the update I had planned, but I knew this was coming. We are in the process of moving houses, which means this beast of a machine has to get moved as well!  After, I removed anything that might jostle around inside, I used the opportunity to snap some more pics of the whole thing.

On one of the pictures above, you can see how the control panel top has been hinged. This allows easy access to the controls for maintenance or modification.

A lot of the pieces of the machine are removable.  Above is the control panel, which is basically a big box that can be removed and also above is the front ‘glass’ (smoked acrylic sheet) that protects the monitor.

Took everything out from inside and getting it through the door. There is probably less than a half inch of wiggle room with the doorframe. That has made it tough, and ended up with some scratches on the side. Some touch up painting is planned for Summer. Also, lucky I added wheels on the back, can’t imagine trying to get that thing to budge with just feet!

And down you go…..!

After it arrived at the new house, I added some shelf brackets inside to mount the PC and subwoofer. This will make it much easier when having to move it around the house. That likely won’t be too often, once we’ve decided on a spot for it.

Well, that’s it for now. Likely going to be very busy with moving till the end of the month, so I’m not sure when the next post will be. Hopefully I’ll have a chance to get the post about Art up. Till next time!
