Stereo

There's a small section of floor space off the kitchen just perfect for something interesting. One thing I was hoping to have time and room for was the stereo. This is the piece I finished at midnight one day before the deadline. These are components from a 1/12 scale Aoshima Pioneer Project A99 kit.

I put together the record player, tape deck, tuner and equalizer. There's a smaller component I don't know. The two LPs are from the kit. They were printed on glossy paper backed with cardboard and die cut. The problem is, the die cuts were not on the lines, so only two were really useful at all. There are even wee cassettes! :D

The kit came with a cabinet and huge floor speakers, but there was no room for speakers and the cabinet looked a bit cheap on its own. I made a custom surround to enclose the plastic cabinet, leaving off the door. I also made two cube speakers from wood blocks and textured material from a photo album page.

I think it fits the space perfectly.
