Just got new acrylic parts delivered from Plastkomponenter, but they are unusable. Top and bottom are not parallel, and the handles will not join nicely. Crrrrap :/
Latest version of the design looks like this:
So, what now? Figure I could make a cast and try vacuum bagging (in Norwegian). If you heat acrylic sheets they are easy to bend.
But I’ll still use the parts I got shipped for prototyping. They could give me good answers on other issues and ideas. I may try to implement lights into the handle and also test to light up the design elements on the side. Lights in the handle will be difficult to achieve, but I know it will work well if I succeede. More worried about the design elements.
