The Stribe's resurrection starts by removing it from its case (which was recycled in the plastics department) -- here we have just half of them and taking apart each part of it and reassessing the board design for ruggedness, stability and overall design suitability for a performance tool. With the shortcomings in mind I can retrofit some strengthening to the boards and the whole thing will be milled in one go. I am not a CAD person or at least not with 5-axis milling machines so I sit with Howard who runs the department and we go through each aspect of how I want it to be and how it will appear.

Its a Screwless device -- the only threaded sections so far are part of the fader board. Each finger channel can be chamfered as well as the enclosures perimeter top and the bottom. It will have webbing for lateral strength and raised threaded dimpled sections to mount the controller PCBs (three of).
