MIP Bottom Frame - A Boeing 737-800 Homecockpit #76

Nice to see the great quality of the cuts. I used the same method with my CNC, but decided to do the way around, from one large mip to full, small modules for the same reason as you mentioned, simpler maintenance. Made it way sturdier. Great work! :)

Suggestion: To stiffen up some of the areas in the center of the MIB, you can cut strips of Acrylic to the same thickness as the wood frame, stand them on edge inside the wood frame, and then chemically weld them to the back of the MIB. It will add rigidity to the frame, and can even provide guides for the devices you slide into the instrument cluster holes.

The problem is, there is no room behind the acrylic because directly behind this bottom layer are the monitors. Only above the screens is more space behind it.

Hello. Where can I buy the mip plan please.

[@Mickeys_Flightdeck]

The plan is part of the membership of my website.

[@dennislander2079]

we can use 6mm MDF ?

[@Mickeys_Flightdeck]

Yes, this should be possible.

[@Mechrank]

Dimensions and angle you got it from?

[@Mickeys_Flightdeck]

Search for Marcus Pilot on Google and you will find a PDF with many measurements.

great go go go we waited too long Polycarbonate sheets (pc sheets) should be used instead of acrylic sheets. Use PMI foam sandwich structure and Kevlar fiber, epoxy resin to make MIP panels. Then we can build airplanes. Haha the above is just a joke don't take it seriously. When will force feedback YOKE and follow-up throttle be added to the plan?

[@Mickeys_Flightdeck]

Force feedback will not come. Maybe a motorized throttle. I can't say when if will come. First let's finish the MIP, glareshield and CDU.

Polycarbonate sheets i used not , because when you are use a router bit to cut the pieces , the polycarbonate melted to my end mil when i cit the pieces.
