Case Mod - In Progress Cold Eye - A CASE CON

Nice electronics skillz! I like how you made the socket from an old molex connector. Those perf board terminals are great, is there a name for those?

 

looking great mate.. im truly jealous

 

The socket ist bought -> CLICK HERE

The terminals: CLICK HERE

UPDATE

Today I cut the...


..."cornea"


Nice screws


The first threads I cut manually


But the rest... CLICK HERE

 

you cut your threads much faster than I do. Why you don't buy a thicker acrylic plate and to counterbore the screw heads. The greatest problem is the price of the thicker acrylic plate.

 

I played with that idea...

Perhaps in the the next project.

 

This is such a cool build, really nice work, I can't wait for more.

 

/\ ditto

 

Filled with water.
I hope that....

 

wow thats cool!

 

Thank's

UPDATE:

The water is still in the eye. .

Now I start with the backpanel...



and the pushbuttons for the tft


I think that works


The connection cable



later more

 

The paint is drying



Now it is time for some more LED


This time a serial connection...


...with the obligatory resistor


And a functional check


later more...

 

Very nice work there, liking the eye a lot

 

wicked... lights

 

A rest aluminium...


...is just big enough to match the TFC Radiator.


Here the Dremel works perfekt again. (I love that tool)


Before the bending comes the Dremen again.


And a close-up

 

Now it is time to bring the LEDs in place


First: The drilling


Of course: tree times


The Back side view


A other thing what will be done, ist the radiator bracket. To mount him in place I cut seven M5 threads.


Mounted


And here with the TFC products


Illuminated:


That the TFT can breathe I need some holes in the Backplate. For that reason I firt print the "COLD EYE" lettering on some labels.


With the DREMEL and a perforated plate..


... I made some vent-hole-lettering

 

That looks really cool, what do you think about those fans, I was comparing them to some Scythe fans the other day and for the price they didn't seem worth it.

 

wicked idea with the lettering!

 

With the rod-nut combination I'm more than unhappy. Therefore I soldered the nuts to the rod (aua)


The cable from the front pane...


... pass thru the TFT...


... to connection aria .
c


For the connection I use a rest from the project "Rocklander"


The result:

 

Your creativity is going beserk

Thumbs up from a neightboor country

 

This mod looks insane with that Triebwerk Fans. I think they will blast.
