Modding G-gnome's Orac³ - Part 1

You've drooled over it in the project logs long enough, here's the first official installment.


article

 

mmmm shinny

thats some proper good engineering there, wish i had some space at home for some decent tools and working area, could then try some mods like that.

very nice, looking forward to see it with all the components in.

its like a sort of 70's sci fi squidy (matrix) Hybrid, very good

 

Yahoo!!

Can't wait until the next installments

Is the article going to be seperated into many bits like the project log, or one bit mondo article?

 

Nice job! Just the self-awareness left to sort out.

Sadly, I think you've completely lost the "Orac effect" by building something far superior to the original crummy plastic box with a half dozen fairy lights. You're going to have to back off the quality control by a considerable margin to achieve that authentic 70's BBC special effects department look.

 

Similar to the logs but I'll be reorganising images and text and combining updates together etc.

The next installment has been written and should be out soon

Cheers for the comments!

 

Maybe some nixie lamps?

 

I really like that case, the chrome go so well with the plexy, all those custom connestions look stunning.

I would like to see that in real life.

 

I'm speechless. It looks so, so, so good.

It's going to be so damned good it'll be a shame to have to put a motherboard in it. It'd be like putting a poo-smeared post-it note in the middle of the Mona Lisa.

Sheer class work, you are my personal jesus.

 

OMG. You Bit's are amazing.

First the Vesper now this.


Wow... simply amazing.

 

this is, by far, the most inticate, detailed, complex, and wonderful computer case mod i've EVER seen... ! congrats on your project. i can't image the man-hours involved in this... whoa...

btw: i actually registered on this forum simply so i could post my appreciation of this mod. you should be proud...

 

We don't care what brings you here so long as you enjoy... welcome.

I love the chrome and what you have done so far. Posted with great interest. The first instalment was great and looks set to be a new bench mark for modders to aim for.

CHROMmonky<----

It's certainly a new chapter in the history of modding!

The bar has been raised (way above my head)

Thanks for that sheardjr

 

Resistance is futile

Just found the bit-tech site and....oh my god...you have far too much time on you hands and that mad scientist brain of yours seems to have been effected by Borg nanoprobes...a most impressive modding experience for me. You have set the bar extremely high and we haven't even seen the finished article yet...

Mod on
