MonoMiK DIY synth mechanics

Building a DIY synthesizer not just involves all this interesting electronics, there is also a lot of mechanics to do. As i want to create a lot of documentation for the current project, the MonoMiK, i had the camera running during my 6 hours of mechanics work today and created a video from it.

This is most of the inner frame holding the modules later and giving the synthesizer stability and some sort of electric shield.

Great video! One thing I've learned about trimming screw lengths is to place a nut on the screw before cutting and deburring. That way, when you take the nut off, it re-threads the end of the screw making it easier to use later.

Oh, this sounds like a good idea - using 2 nuts might also make it easier to place the screw in the vise.

Very interesting. Nice work. Thanks for the video.

nice work!! i'm making my own modular right now, and i know it takes much more than wiring to make a good synth. i can't wait to see your finished project.
