No, not a vintage Eastern bloc drum machine.
The building material, that’s like a pre-coloured MDF.
I’ve just had a (yellow) bathroom unit done in it, and I think it’s really nice stuff.
There’s a couple of small gear stands I’ve seen on the market, but was wondering if anyone has done anything more substantial with it. I can’t justify the spend right now, but if/when I get my home studio/office overhauled I’d do it entirely in valchromat.
Anybody beat me to it?

Yep, I clicked this because I thought it would be an Eastern bloc drum machine.

Real producers only use asbestos for all their studio building needs

I haven’t, but a friend has used it a lot for speakers and cabinets. I like it, it has a very nice surface. I think it’s quite easy to work with. I made a big studio console in painted mdf for my previous studio . I guess if I ever find the time to build a proper console for mye new studio, it will be in Valchromat.
I sometimes see people selling leftover boards from finished projects in the second hand ads. Might be a nice way to test and get to know the material before embarking on a bigger project.

I haven’t made anything studio related with Valchromat yet, but I have made some other furniture. And I must agree with you, it’s really nice stuff. It is easy to work with, and I have found it especially good for milling!
