We all use thumbscrews, and the case mod market is oversaturated with thumbscrews made in Asia. What can I possibly do to compete? First off, give people their moneys worth! This is the final version of the "Bullet" theme case thumbscrew I'll be manufacturing. Depending how well it does, I'll offer more designs..It will be available in 6/32 and M3 thread. The diameter is 5/8", it actually looks bigger in these pics than it really is. The price hasn't been determined yet, but will likely be sold in sets of 4. http://www.mnpctech.com/Bullet-Thumb-Screws.html Final version Prototype version
WOW! those are sweet as Bill! Thought about doing it with the thread on the flat base of the bullet instead? Would looke awesome polished with gold anodised tips
i cant help but think of the movie "lord of war" when i see them. it would be cool to do a amo theamed case. shotgun shells as feet, howitzer casing as a res for liquid cooling, and im seeing a bandolier molded in to the side of the case. could do custom screws like jessy james that look like shell casings. that would be cool
Thanks for the comments guys! I wanted to leave the option of engraving or painting something on the base, thats why the tip is threaded... Anymore features will drive up costs, but at least you have the option. I've always thought case feet styled after shell casing would be cool too. Comparison to Lian Li thumbscrew, we'll be making these in M3 and 6/32 thread, so they fit all brand cases.
I love most of your work, but these are ridiculous... and way to massive! Cant you make them any smaller, and less intrusive? Does this mean that mnpctech now has a CNC lathe?
The sort of e-peen these things give you is like what you get from running sli, so the bullets are pretty good value.
make em a little smaller so those of us without tooless PCI-E slots can use em inside our cases... that would be soo cool
I do plan on making them smaller, just as soon as I get some other prototypes finished up, I'll get back on these.. I will keep you updated
