How does  your recollection of the M400 you carpeted compare to the Islands 
Tron  depicted at http://www-dcrp.ced.berkeley.edu/Cervero/crimtron.htm? You 
say  the cabinet was in poor shape when you received the unit ...  
extensive-touring-with-frustrated-band-members-poor, perhaps?

Now,  doth the craftsman recognize his work?



Sadly, I do recognise this as being my creation. I can't say with  absolute 
certainty, but unless someone else had exactly the same idea, which is  
possible I guess, it's probable that it's the same machine.
I thought that the carpet would be a good to help protect the unit (which  it 
did), and would look good, which actually looking at it again, does, in my  
opinion.
In fact, I made the mistake of doing the work in a small, poorly ventilated  
room. I didn't realise this was a mistake until I came round. I had passed 
out,  having OD'd on the glue fumes!
