Well, I really want to understand your ible, but theres not a final image and i can't see the video, it's private :/

This is a good first Instructable and a cool project. Here are a few friendly suggestions. There are a few things that could make it better: 1 A complete parts and supply list 2. You could explain a little further what an "Armoury" is. I didn't know (guess I'm getting old) but I finally figured it out. 3. Step 3 Nightlight could be explained a little more. Where did you get one with the socket like that? 5. Step 6 explain why you should "Add stand off bolts" I understand after reading it a couple times. Others might find it confusing if they don't know why they are doing it. 6. Add a safety step. I know you address electricity at one point, but you may want to add a step that encompasses all of the safety factors involved, i.e tool usage, router, saws etc. 7. Show a step of cutting and routing I think this is a great project and it came out looking so great! I think I will make one in the future, I have been looking for a audio to light modulator for a while. In the end you came out with a really cool project.

Thanks for your comments, I will make these changes, except for the cutting and sawing, it is a little late for those pics.

Thank you Sir, unfortunately the instructable would go like this. 1) Buy really good camera to compensate for my lack of photography skills 2) Take photos MFCrow
