Have you ever considered swapping out the printed crystal for real Quartz crystal to add to the realism/effect? Would it be easy enough to do providing you had the right size? I've just ordered this chassis and would love to attempt putting a real Quartz inside. Cheers. Love the Chassis design BTW.
Hey, Sure, we do it quite often (as well as other installers). Actually, the 3D printed crystal can also serve as a template to get the right quartz size and shape. Then, what we do is to cut the 3d printed crystal away from its base, then epoxy a quartz stone in its place. It’s rather easy. An important point would be to be able to make the quartz base flat to glue it properly (we use Dremel for that).
@@GOTH3Designs Excellent, thanks for your feedback. That's really helpful and using the Dremel was something I was considering using, but have never cut/sanded/polished quartz before, so knowing you use it for that exact purpose really helps. I'm looking forward to building this chassis now and experimenting with a real quartz crystal to add to the realism of the build. Really appreciate the video and you responding to my question so quickly. Keep up the great work.
Always natural brass for all our chassis. The parts always come out good, which makes the polished option not worth it in our opinion. Of course it is a matter budget, and some people prefer to spend more to have the part in polished metal and at the best look :)
