- Hello and welcome back to Mickey's Flightdeck.
In this video I will show you the construction of my flight- and navigation section of my Boeing 737-800 overhead panel.
You can find all the needed files to cut out and engrave your panel as well as the 3D print files for the switch caps in the member section of my website.
Also many other plans for building your own homecockpit can be found on www.mickeys-fli....

I wish I would’ve seen this sooner but yeah, that font is spot on!
Your attention to detail is astonishing. Thank you for sharing your expertise. Your work is exemplary.
It’s realy real! 👍🏼 Good job.
You're an absolute master. Thanks for your videos 😆
I can't wait for the next item you build
Me too.
Beautiful work!
Thank you.
Tks, your explanation helped me a lot.
That's the goal.
Sehr gute Arbeit! Ich mag deine Videos. Mach doch mal ein Video über deine eigenen beschrifteten und beleuchteten Pushbuttons. Würde mich persönlich sehr interessieren wie du die Sache löst. Vielleicht kann ich da noch was für meine eigene Konstruktion mitnehmen. ^^ Aber Daumen hoch.
Welche Buttons meinst du? Mein erster Button war der vom Glareshield und das ist als Video dokumentiert.
Danke, das Video habe ich noch gar nicht gesehen. Sowas habe ich gemeint ja. Sehr schön erklärt und gebaut.
Felicitaciones. Sigo tus videos.
Thank you.
Fantastic Work Michael. Will you be making all of the overhead panels? If so I will want to follow along. I'm about to get a membership to a makers space that has cnc router, 3d printer and laser cutter. Hoping to make all of the panels.
Yes, I will build all the panels. It will be a long process, so you will have enough time to build it.
Just discovered your channel. This is great, very useful and detailed information.
May I ask which type of drill you're using to engrave the letters ? I'm struggling with my cnc to get a decent job.
Thank you and keep going. Cheers from Paris
I'm using a 30° engraving bit in my "AMB 1050 FME-1" spindle.
Great channel, I enjoy your build videos. May I ask where you got your CNC machine (or the plans) from?
You can find them at www.holzmechanik.de
Super, wie immer! Ich würde dir aber raten die Panele vor dem Lackieren mit dem Boeing-Grau, zu grundieren. Die Farbe hält auf dem Akryl nur schlecht und es kann dir passieren, dass du später, wenn schon alles fertig ist, Ablösungen bekommst. So jedenfalls meine Erfahrung!
Dank dir. Ich hoffe ja, dass das vorherige Aufrauhen der Oberfläche und die Versiegelung mit Klarlack genug Halt gibt.
@@Mickeys_Flightdeck Hängt bestimmt vom Lack ab. Entscheidend ist die erste Bindung! Was immer du drüber legst, verbessert nichts. Mach lieber, bevor du mehr machst eine Probe. Die Fingernägel später können einen Schaden anrichten, weil der Schaden ja auch hinterleuchtet ist.
@@karlheinzmrazek830 Hallo, was empfehlen Sie als Produkt zum Grundieren Ihrer Acrylplatten?
Tragen Sie dann einen Lack auf?
hello, it s really marvelous. So i m wondering what is the number (trade mark) of you re machine who made the gap ?
It's a self mad CNC router. You can find the plans here: holzmechanik.de/
Erstmal Respekt für die Arbeit und Ausführung! Was nützt Du für Estlcameinstellungen zum gravieren der Beschriftungen? Welchen Fräser/Gravierstichel? Und wo bekommst Du die Toggle Switches her? Meistens findet man leider nur die Mini-Mikroausführungen.
Danke und weiter so!
Grüße Pascal
Hallo Pascal, schau dir vielleicht einmal mein Video #30 an. Dort gehe ich detailliert auf die Einstellungen zum Gravieren ein. Zur Anwendung kommt ein 30° Gravierstichel. Die Schalter habe ich bei Aliexpress gefunden (z.B. hier de.aliexpress.com/item/32960109321.html?spm=a2g0s.9042311.0.0.27424c4dylgFCP).
Nice video. Are you going to place in a solenoïde switch for the yaw damper?
Is there one? I didn't know that.
@@Mickeys_Flightdeck yes. Also the wing anti ice switch.
@@DolfBreederveld Thank you.
@@Mickeys_Flightdeck Last year I made a sollenoid switch for the A/T arm switch on my FMC. Next month I am going to make two more for my overhead.
Good evening Mickael,
I have finished manufacturing my CNC and would like to start manufacturing my MCP.
I made one prototype in MDF which works well with X-plane, but I'm afraid I won't find
white acrylic panels big enough in France because the MCP measures 71 cm anyway!
I can't find your video in which you talk about the characteristics of your acrylic sheets ...
Can you help me find it? Could you tell me where you buy your acrylic sheet ? In Germany ?
Are you satisfied with the quality, especially the rendering with the backlight?
Thank you in advance for your help !
I'm going into this in video #30. I used 30% translucent white Plexiglas. Die backlighting comes out really good. But if you want to increase the visibility of the engravings whithout backlighting I would recommend a less translucent one. The power of the backlighting LEDs will still be strong enough. I searched for a local supplier of acrylic in my town. It is cheaper than paying high shipping costs. Maybe you find a manufacturer who can order you a sheet.
@@Mickeys_Flightdeck thank you for your quick reply !
hello can you throw me these panel sizes
Michael, thanks for sharing. Your work inspires me to try this myself. I love the trouble you go to when making your own white silicone knob covers etc. I've always said that more than half the fun is in the building of a sim, not the flying. You need to learn so much! I can't wait one day to start this myself.
And thanks for sharing all your hard work with everyone. You are a champion.
Yes, the work can be much fun and also very frustrating. I often compare it with a model train. It's never 100% finished.
Was für einen Gravierstichel nimmst du? Momentan habe ich sehr spitze Stichel (ich meine 10 Grad, 0.1mm). Die gehen eig sehr gut, brechen aber schnell ab.
Danke für die Hilfe
Ich verwende 30° Gravierstichel. Keine Ahnung, was für eine Spitzenbreite der hatte. In Estlcam hatte ich den mit 0.1 mm hinterlegt. Das ergab natürlich lange Gravierzeiten. Jetzt werde ich mal welche bis rauf zu 0.3mm probieren.
Currently doing an overhead. May i ask where yoy got those LED strips?
Sure, I bought them from Aliexpress. The 5050 LED stripes with 60 LEDs.
@@Mickeys_Flightdeck thank you. I actually discovered you can get strips to cut individual LEDs. Also trying to figure out an alternative to the 3d printed annunciator holders as i lack a 3d printer currently. My panels are printed and glued to plexi. Looks fairly good.
What cockpit panels are you going to build in your next video?
I'm thinking about the electric panel.
Michael Schulz which electrical panels are you going to be doing in the next video?
@@caleb0606 I thought there is only one. This one with the green seven segment displays and the switches where you can control the input from the different generators.
Michael Schulz There are 3 sub panels for the electric system. Which ones are you making.
@@caleb0606 I will post the progress on instagram, when I have something presentable.
DVD Cases come in handy for beginner Sim nerds on a budget, especially the grey ones for milling and engraving then adding paint or layering them with a clear layer to make light-up writing smaller cockpit panels, since Blu-ray took over you can find them for pennies in any colour
Marvellous craftsmanship Michael. Following with interest.
Just mention it’s Stripps not Stripes pronunciation 😊
Damn, I'll have to make a new video 😏. But thank you.
@@Mickeys_Flightdeck Haha - If you do I'll re-watch. Youre the best ;-)
Yesssssss great video as always
Is the back lighting white or yellowish? Hard to tell on camera! Awesome video
It's warm white.
Michael I admire your tenacity but if you're going to do all these panels you need to buy a laser cutter, it would save you hundred of hours work. I can cut both those panels leaving the masking on the acrylic for the lower panel, all in 10 minutes. Then I paint them, and engrave them with the laser. finally stripping off the masked area that is simply the plastic that protects the acrylic when it's made.
Lucky one. But where would be the fun, when I finish all the panels within minutes? But I'm planning to build a laser cutter in the future. Maybe this can be another interesting project.
@@Mickeys_Flightdeck I hadn't thought of that, some more chapters of Michaels progress in this interesting story. Incidentally I wasn't trying to undermine you're undeniable talents, I just thought it may get you flying sooner.
I imagine you know that many builders never finish their projects because over time they lose interest, but if they can get the cockpit flying it spurs them on to finish it.
Having said that, every builder knows it's never finished anyway. There's always something that could be better, Motorise the throttle, link the yokes, change servo gauges for real ones.... it goes on!
I'll still watch your progress with interest.
Sehr gutes Video, wie immer. Was machen sie beruflich ? Machen sie da auch etwas im Luftfahrtbereich ?
Ich bin Informatiker. Aber auch nicht im Luftfahrtbereich.
@@Mickeys_Flightdeck Ist zwar nicht in der Luftfahrt, aber die Kenntnisse helfen ihnen ja beim Bau des Homecockpits. Ich will mir auch eins bauen, aber ich muss noch auf meine Werkstatt warten und auf den Flight Simulator 2020
