It's a nice piece. I'm sure you'll get someone to buy it 😉

Thanks.

I'm sure it would sell faster if I left my Roland SCD-15 in there, but it's not for sale. 😉

After all that and finally building it, I come to realize I would probably never use it. Alas, I had more fun building it.

Why not?

Or exposed to sunlight for a long time.

I'm pretty certain "yellowing" is caused by a flame retardent chemical in the plastic mix that reacts with oxygen over a period of time (usually a few years). It cannot just be sunlight as i've got old C64's, Amiga's, Macs and PC's stored in a dark dry loft and a few have gone yellow! And i don't smoke either 😜.

Though sunlight certainly helps, i.e. in a computer room of a school these close to the window are more yellowed than the others further away.
