Liebe Besucher, dear visitors…
… wir finden es toll, dass Ihr Euch für unser Lego DJ-Pult interessiert. Da es schon einige Anfragen gab: Das DJ Pult ist ein Unikat und nicht zu verkaufen, da wir es in unserer Wohnung einfach viel zu schick finden
Aber stöbert doch ruhig mal durch unsere anderen Kreationen… mit Liebe handgenähte Unikate aus Downtown Münster.
… we’re thrilled that you like our selfmade Lego DJ deck! In case you want to build one yourself feel free to check out our construction manual after the jump.
First of all: sorry! Our “construction-manual-english” sucks big time, but let’s give it a try anyway…
You need…
- wood core plywood
- wood glue
- set of threaded bars, screw nuts, flat washers, anchor sleeves and plaster
- woodscrews
- elbows, big ones
- Lego (approx. 1.400 pieces), new from the Lego online store. You can also buy used ones, but you won’t get the brighter colours (light green and orange) and new bricks really look way better
Total costs: approx. 400 Euros (500$).
Step 1
Planning, planning, calculating, planning. To take the measurement of the Lego case we recommend to build the ground structure out of Lego bricks you already posess.
Step 2
Cut the Wood core plywood in pieces you need or ask your carpenter to do it for you.
Step 3
Insert two little cut-outs. You need one at the front for attaching your headphones to the mixer and a second one to lead through the cables. After these steps each piece should be glued and screwed to the bottom board.
Step 4
Use elbows to reinforce every corner. Drill four holes in constant distances through the back, hold the corpus against the wall you are going to attach it to. Now you are able to mark the position of the holes you need to drill into the wall. Please make sure your wall is able to bear approx. 40 kg (88 lbs). You really need solid walls made of bricks.
Step 5
Drill four really big holes into the wall.
Step 6
Put anchorsleeves in the holes and fill them with plaster. You need to do that one by one and put the threaded bars in the plaster filled holes. Plaster bonds really fast.
Step 7
Wait until plaster is hardened (at least two hours) and put the DJ deck on the threaded bars. Put the flat washers on and fix the screw nuts.
Step 8
Put turntables and mixer in the right position.
Step 9
Build the Lego case using your favourite colours. You don’t need to glue the Lego. Don’t forget the little cut-outs!
Step 10
Put the Lego case around the wooden corpus (we nailed some of the plates on the upper side. You need to drill the Lego before nailing it to the wooden corpus) and put Lego tiles on top.
Done

Hi,
Any chance you could tell me exactly what bricks you used to build this; color, size, amounts etc?

hi ben, we used about 1400 bricks. it depends on the measurements of your turntables and mixer, how many bricks you need. we built the first row with old lego bricks to see how many bricks we need for one row.

Hi Matt, we did not paint the wood. You can’t see the bottom.
