black wheel??? havn't seen that yet!
I wish I had wooden sides, but I have the feeling them joints never is aligned! Like they always stick off to the side a little
nice job though!

I painted the wheel and the display. This one is really just a MPC3000 converted to a LE look.

Thx for the comments. I used this rubber coating stuff from home depot. It somes in yellow or black. You can find it in the paint or glue section. I got it to paint internal zip drives but then I decided to coat the display and data wheel. It takes about 3 coats and it does not seem to flake or peel on its own. You can peel it off with a little effort so you can always go back to the origional color if you want.
