Having a few rather tatty Beolink 1000 parts sitting around got me thinking about what to do with them so I thought I'd make a bespoke one to match my system 7000. The top plates have been stripped back to bare metal before applying metal etch primer & sprayed with several coats of satin black paint & polished to a piano black finish. The main body was stripped back to bare aluminium and polished via increasing grades of wet & dry paper before polishing with T cut & finally jewellers rouge to give a mirrored finish.

Got bored so I made this

It sure does - more pictures please! 🙂
Very nice! That picture may have just cost me a few hours of work, I have a well worn Beo 4 I've wanted to fix and now I may have to borrow your idea. A perfect match for BC9000.
Very nice! That picture may have just cost me a few hours of work,
The beauty is that all it took was a couple of hours work and a few quid for the paint. It has definately made good use of otherwise pretty ropey parts which were just laying around waiting for the rag & bone man to take them to the great scrap yard in the sky.
Thanks for the kind comments. More pic's to follow when I've dusted off the dog hairs and got some decent daylight. I have to give a little credit to Craig who's opinion I asked when he called in last week and gave me the thumbs up to follow this through.
Chris.
Wow, it looks great! A good match for the BS 7000 too.
