Man oh man that's beautiful.
So did you mask the edges while using the thinners?

Yes ofcourse, but it wasn't very nice strait line. Thinner seems to leak under the tapes.
Lastnight I try to wipe off the WACOM label and replace with my own logo. I failed, hahaha. Thinner leak onto other part and it looks awful on top.
Will wipe the whole thing clean, mask and spray a new paint coat. I think that should give me better result.

You should spray it with something crazy. Find like a rainbow spraypaint (does that even exist). Then overlay light gold and silver sparkles.
lol, I am bored....

Thanks guys. While waiting for other parts to arrive (from around the globe), I've done some test to see what actually causing the jitter on my build.
- Driver board away - no change
- Unplug the backlit inverter bundled and use the inverter from my laptop and drive the backlit - no change
- Adding aluminiun sheet as padding for the driver board & inverter - no change
- Using a different CCFL backlit (taken from a faulty laptop screen) - no change
- Totally unplug the backlit (dark screen) - no change
- Powered from different sources, tried 2 different 12V adapter, also modified a firewire cable to steal power from my computer - no change
- Also tried aluminium foil wrapping various cables (USB, DVI, power) - no change
- VGA seems to give less jitter than DVI
To try:
- Different DVI cable (shorter, longer, different brand, gold platted, you name it).
- A cold start without inverter & backlit to confirm is it the heat from CCFL causing the jitter.
- Power source from different building

I take it the foil shielding wase grounded/earthed and all that.
Might be worth trying lead foil, the sort of stuff you get for flashings on guttering and such like.

the refresh rate also influences jitter. I set my video card refresh rate to maximum for my dontiq and the little jitter I had almost vanished.

My LCD panel at 1280x1024px can only support 75Hz or 60Hz. Using 75Hz at the moment.

Found my material for the stand. My back casing should arrive next week.
Hopefully to finish this project by end of the month.
