Damn! Just as I was about to order one!
Got any stock left, more in particular a BruFace ?
Oh well, can't be helped I guess... Thanks for making this project a reality in the first place : you took it a lot further than all the others did !

I'm sorry to hear that. What chance is there of passing on the tech plans? We have CNC equipment here and could maybe produce them. Couldn't annodise though.

I also saw that you are selling your empeg in the For Sale forum. Was that a spare (i.e., are you keeping an empeg for yourself) or are you moving on to different equipment?
I am sorry to see you go, but I understand. Thanks for all the work!!!

That must be why I didn't get a reply to the last few messages I sent you.
I assume these were done on a CNC machine, any chance someone else might take over making them ?
Depending on the cost I have access to a CNC machine.
if it was a mold I might be into purchasing it from you just so we don't loose out on these faces.

I also have limited access to CNC equipment (my dads!). Hopefully someone else will produce something. 303 did a great job with them though - it would be hard to top them.

303, did you ever get around to making a shorter volume knob? I'd still like one if you do have any.

Hmmm, if someone with the plans and a CNC could make wooden fascia, I'd be extremely interested

303 doesn't even hang out here anymore, and there's no way he going to reproduce another of his labours of love for anyone here these days, not even for a total noob. Cheers

Whoa! Calm down. You don't want to get into a knowledge match with Mark, even if Mark was a little rude with the "noob" remark. I'm thinking he was just poking fun a little, tho.

The hazards of trying to guesstimate someone from one post - I am just amused at the thought of his identifying Mark as "Playstation Boy" and someone who doesn't get out!

Oh, you mean the nice guy who I've met in Amersfoort, Holland and Cambridge U.K., I wish I got out as much as him!
N.B. I'm really creeping on the off chance he'll find me just one more dock lurking in that fabulous workshop of his!

Sure! It even says so next to your posting: "new poster"!
Back when I was in your position, I think the wording was actually "newbie". Which peeved me slightly at the time, too!
And for the record, I've never owned a playstation, nintendo, x-box, or anything else of that genre in my life. Though I do admit to having played the original Wing Commander and Loom games. Oh, and Castle Wolfenstein, too. That one was fantastic in 1982!

Speaking of getting out (and hijacking this thread), here's where I was at the time my avatar photo was taken.. on top of this thing, having just finished leading it the hard way up (from the lake):

Mlord..The reason I called you all that because I was offended by your comment about me being a noob..That is an insulting word and It is a subculture geek lingo that is often used by arrogant snoby computer nerds..I would even prefer newbie...I was informed about your profile... I have my own profession and I know well enough about computers to build my own and build networks and webpages and enough linux to maintain my server,,etc..etc just because I am not a linux programmer shouldn't give you the opportinity to make fun of me or anybody..I also travelled almost all europe and some contries in Asa..but I don't show that off.. I am a Doctor..I am sure you wouldn't know fraction of the things I know and trained in medically.. Maybe I am new to this forum because I spend most of my time helping other people and not worry about some mp3 player so much and waste my spare time to hang out here all the time and reply to other people's posts with arrogance and negativity especially when It wasn't directed to me ...like you and other couple of snobs All I did was to ask this guy if he could build me a face plate for extra money...sometimes people can show effort when offered extra money..I am sure he would definately do it for me If I offered him $10.000 but since I am not that crazy ..I just offered him the reasonable double price..I could even paid him triple for his kindnes and effort if he did.. The reason I posted in this old thread is because, some one from my own original thread directed me here to be helpful..and ALL I did was to ask him a question..Not to any of you people.. If he wants to responde he will..but there is no need for comments or critism or negativity from any of you..My question wasn't directed to any of you..This is his thread remember ?? My biggest pet peeve is arrogance and people who think they're God's gift to the mankind.. So back off ! ...my post wasn't meant for any of you but Tim (303) and speaking about HIJACKING..I posted a question for the original owner of the thread..even though its old..You posted your hijacking arrogance and unnecessary offense.!

Hey Mark! Let me ask you a quick question. In a hypothethical case, how does one go about asking the moderators to review a poster's attitude, without being 'snobby' about it? I am asking you this as I am well aware that your knowledge of this board, as well as many other things, is much greater than mine. Speaking of snobby, a very good friend of mine is a doctor, and HE says the snottest people HE knows are doctors. So Mark, let me know. Thanks Ladmo, who is not a doctor, does not have his own profession, and does not know more than Mark. In fact, I am amazed at how little I actually do know.

I never even mentioned any of that and created negativity in the first place..It was all in response to your own attitude Lando and mlord..read my first post..Does it have any negativity in it No!..It all started after I was called a noob..

Yes Mark , I assume you are the moderator of the forum..Let me ask you myself why am I being attacked..when all I did was to ask Tim (303) if he could build me a faceplate??? Why there is so much negativity here ? I only had two threads and none of them was negative..Just because I happened to stand up to this self proclaimed empeg guru for his insult, all these attacks came in... These people think that they have the right to insult anybody yet they can't be questioned and judged for it...cause they have been a member of this forum longer...

Now, that's the most scary revelation in this thread, if it's true: Spare me your bedside manner if it exhibits the same violent over-reaction as your correspondence. Your whole tirade is based upon a misreading of the sentiment in Mark's original posting.
Quote: my post wasn't meant for any of you but Tim (303)
Then send him a PM, that's what it's for, and spare us all your bad-mouthing and bad attitude on this best of all possible BBS's. I would imagine that if Tim is following this thread, he wouldn't want anything to do with you at any price!

when that person directed me to this thread I didn't first realize that this was an old thread....but yes I should have done that (PM) to avoid all this. My reaction was intense because three people helped escalating it to that point..and just like any one I don't like to be called names.. You call my reaction violent but what about you all ? One guy tells me to shut the hell up because I asked about the idea of making mpeg home stereo fully ... and told me 99 percent of people do not want that..Thats fine but what about that 1 percent may be interrested in my thread..Don't I have a right to ask question to that 1 percent ? the main thing I can't undestand is that.., when I see a thread and it doesn't interrest me or don't like the idea , I just move on and read someone elses idea or thread but I certainly wouln't mock that guy about how bad his idea is or call him names or any of that..You see some idea that you don't like , you just then move on... Now why don't you realize that rationally...Is it fair to tell someone to shut up or get a life just bacaused thay asked for something like that..Isn't that violent ? Thats allright if Tim doesn't do anything for me the correct behaiviour is just let him responde or not but don't speak for him.. Its like the bible saying.. Do unto others as you would have done unto you.. Doctors are also human beings..You go to any doctors office and call him an a** hole and see if he is going to help you or not.. I dare you.. but please stop this.. realize that when you offend people , they will not like it and react..just like you did , but my acting up abut it was because of how you responded to me first..It doesn't feel good is it. to be judged.....

Wrong person to ask. I don't even have admin access here. But if a tacky 14-year old with a large allowance ever did come along and start abusing this BBS, we'd probably all tolerate the snot for a week or two, and wait for her to move on.

Brilliant!
Come on here and abuse the person who's probably done more for the empeg community than anyone bar the original development team, is that the sound of doors slamming shut that I hear in background?
You got called a noob, which you are, it's not an insulting word in the slightest, I hope that you're not this over-sensitive with your "patients".
