My new cybercafé design

Featured Replies

People were asking me what I’m doing these days.

I’m going to open a new cybercafé here in Mexico and designed the workspace for a customer.

It doesn’t look difficult but as I write this, the workshop is starting to make some parts already.

I will start to shoot photos before I begin too, so you can compare it. Believe me its ugly now.

Bad thing is that I’m short on cash; I can’t directly make the place like I want.

This design is relatively cheap, about 35 US$ for each customer place :). The base is made out of black spayed metal square tubes welted together. the tube behind the screen will hold the monitor and headset cables inside so you only will see the mouse and keyboard cables coming out of the desk beside that tube. The tube it self is made again out of iron, painted black and finished with a high gloss transparent paint to make it scratch proof and looks like it came directly out of the shop. All this I do myself, less the welding it together (I have no tools for it, nor can I weld that good). The desk it self is made out of wood panel with a scratch resistant topcoat in blue and black nylon edges...

when I first saw the pictures I was alarmed because they are wireless :P

I could have added the wires but I thought it would not add that much information to the picture. By the way, there will be a 54Mbit wireless network in combination with a LinkSYS WRT54GL. Zxian will help me to setup the router; firmware and some tips´n´tricks ;).

All goes slowly, but I think I can send some real pictures in some weeks :D. I didn’t have time to render more images; I’m building the place up now :).

(Pretend that is upside down --->) ?Si algún día yo estoy en México, podría ir a visitar su café de internet? :P
