2013-11-25 22:57 for the inside of the window, that is 2013-11-25 22:58 heck, maybe even silicone oil to directly bridge the air gap to the OLED display? 2013-11-25 22:59 depending on optical "density" of the materials, this might result in a 100% clean and transparent view to the OLED pixels 2013-11-25 23:00 porchao has joined #qi-hardware 2013-11-25 23:01 (tape) don't forget that there are two walls at that place: the half-case and then the other. the inside of the inner wall is painted black. the problem is that the outside of the inner wall and the inside of the outer wall are rough and reflect light. 2013-11-25 23:01 err 2013-11-25 23:02 (display) the problem isn't the air gap but the roughness of the inner surface. some oil would probably solve that, but then i'd have to worry about oil leaks :) 2013-11-25 23:02 what are you talking about now? the display window or the "belt"? 2013-11-25 23:02 aah 2013-11-25 23:02 (belt) 2013-11-25 23:02 1st was the belt. 2nd was the display 2013-11-25 23:03 (belt) you won't see any of that anyway? 2013-11-25 23:03 since the tape covers it 2013-11-25 23:03 so the tape would be on the outside ? 2013-11-25 23:03 sure 2013-11-25 23:04 ah, but then it would be very noticeable. i mean, even paint is quite noticeable 2013-11-25 23:04 just like packaging tape across the flaps of a paper box 2013-11-25 23:04 even the nice and shiny one :) 2013-11-25 23:05 naw, it's tape on some extremely smooth plastic 2013-11-25 23:05 yes, the idea is it's looking so nice it MUST be noticeable 2013-11-25 23:05 even dust looks like a mountain there ;) 2013-11-25 23:06 I'm talking about extremely thin and high glossy black foil stickytape 2013-11-25 23:06 hmm, and where would i find that ? 2013-11-25 23:07 I couldn't think of a shinier surface 2013-11-25 23:07 3M? Scotch? 2013-11-25 23:07 Silver one is probably even easier to find 2013-11-25 23:08 for black one I can only think of stickers at bottom of every other PSU etc 2013-11-25 23:08 usually black with silver printing on it, actually completely silver though with black printing 2013-11-25 23:09 they are typically the thickness of the brown packing tape "tesa paketband" 2013-11-25 23:09 mmh, my question is more about which industry supplier may have such tapes. they're certainly not the sort you find at the stationary shop 2013-11-25 23:10 yes, you need to google a bit for such stuff 2013-11-25 23:10 probably you could order it at label printers 2013-11-25 23:10 or similar suppliers 2013-11-25 23:11 generally sticker/label manufacturers 2013-11-25 23:11 deco shops might also have such stuff 2013-11-25 23:12 i don't see such stuff around here. even finding decent double-sided tape is kinda difficult 2013-11-25 23:12 o.O 2013-11-25 23:12 i can imagine what you're talking about, though :) 2013-11-25 23:12 well, you probably need to order it via internet then 2013-11-25 23:15 hm, i think i'll try to get things done with the "white" band. for the y-box, a tape may indeed work (if i can find it). but the anelok prototype, needs to be opened from time to time (battery and memory card change). a tape would make this messy. 2013-11-25 23:16 http://www.kohlstaedt.de/technologien/frontfolien.html?gclid=CPXV5peIgbsCFQ1L3god6A4AzA http://www.living3000.de/shop/suche?q=folie%20deko&campid=5337337958 2013-11-25 23:16 but it's good to have another fallback solution, because the ones i've tried this far don't convince me 2013-11-25 23:17 yeah, this solution is not meant for any "user serviceable parts inside" 2013-11-25 23:17 "Wand-Deko Gothic-Haus" hehe ;-) 2013-11-25 23:19 http://www.decowoerner.com/de/Folien-1-2525.html 2013-11-25 23:19 "Plotterfolie": impressive range of surfaces 2013-11-25 23:20 yes 2013-11-25 23:21 if all else fails, i can always use electrical tape :) 2013-11-25 23:22 that looks really crappy and dull 2013-11-25 23:22 lekernel has quit [Quit: Leaving] 2013-11-25 23:22 particularly non-plane surface, it has amazing "impurities" 2013-11-25 23:22 and way too thick 2013-11-25 23:23 I think scotchtape is about maximum thickness you could use before it gets nasty where the tape's edgets are exposed 2013-11-25 23:24 unless you use 15 layers and it adds up to a solid 0.7mm belt around the whole thing ;-) 2013-11-25 23:24 it gets thinner when you stretch it :) 2013-11-25 23:24 (the electrical tape) 2013-11-25 23:24 yeah, and smaller 2013-11-25 23:24 but yes, very dull 2013-11-25 23:26 well, I'm undecided if I even should suggest it since I think it might look crappy as well: there is that 0.1mm pure alu sticky tape 2013-11-25 23:27 you can find that at Conrad et al 2013-11-25 23:27 or maybe use copper instead of alu? ;-P 2013-11-25 23:29 at least the alu tape you could cut open the device with a sharp cutter again, splicing the tape in the middle into two smaller halves 2013-11-25 23:29 would create a rather clean gap between your case upper and lower half 2013-11-25 23:30 naw, the tape, if there's to be any tape at all, should be invisible 2013-11-25 23:30 that's not possible 2013-11-25 23:30 it will be always visible 2013-11-25 23:31 pcercuei has quit [Quit: brb] 2013-11-25 23:31 but i think i can get an okay effect with just avoiding paint on the "belt". it looks fine if it's consistent. just looks bad if it comes and goes. 2013-11-25 23:31 and the whole purpose is it actually *is* visible, so it can cover the nasty parts along your "collision" zone between upper and lower half of case 2013-11-25 23:32 yes, tape will always look as something added. while some odd color change on the inside can look intentional :) 2013-11-25 23:32 i.e., "DON'T make it look like an accident" ;-) 2013-11-25 23:32 exactly 2013-11-25 23:32 really shiny belt might look like the icing on top of the acrylic design 2013-11-25 23:33 brushed alu would look really nice 2013-11-25 23:34 exact height of the case, ending flush on top and bottom acrylic transparent surface with that black inside it 2013-11-25 23:36 yeah, pretty and quite impossible :) 2013-11-25 23:36 the glossy alu stickytape might work as well, but probably won't have a proper surface 2013-11-25 23:36 impossible? how? 2013-11-25 23:36 if it's flush with the edge, then it'll also be exposed to friction. so it'll separate very quickly 2013-11-25 23:36 nah 2013-11-25 23:37 get some of that sturdy alu sticky 2013-11-25 23:37 oh yes. i wouldn't even want paint at the place. maybe epoxy paint, which is nearly indestructible. but then i don't have the tools for that. 2013-11-25 23:39 _whitelogger_ has joined #qi-hardware 2013-11-25 23:39 ok, when I get really bored, I will search for my alu sticky and a matchbox and show you what it could look like.
