Default New build mostly done

Okay guys, here is my second homebrew, a Sony P41. It is my second build but the first one I built completely on my own.

The components



Using the Pelican 1040 case, you have to dremel it a little bit to make the camera fit.



Case drilled and pipe-thru installed



Glass and fresnal installed



Board installed



Case with base layer of camo started



Camera painted



Finished product



The first pic taken in my man-cave. Almost suprised it worked!



Well there she is boys. Got some touch up to do with the paint and some wires to tuck but it is mostly done. What do you think.

Blessings.....Pastorjim

I'm already loving it Todd. I put it up in the yard to test it and I couldn't believe how fast it is. I was thinking that I wanted another S600 but after seeing the speed of the P41, I don't know. Alot will depend on how good the pics look when I get it out in the wild.

If you really got with it, you could probably do it in an afternoon. But the liquid nail you use to camo the case takes several days to dry.
