Case Mod - In Progress Project Extreme Lian Li II (Part 2)

And I could want the last extreme Li :] I'm so gonna have my eye on this one, the last one was just superb.

Always a shame to see such a nice piece of casemodding being ripped apart, but lets hope the new one will be still cooler!

 

@Jipa, things start and things come to an end.

 

Starting with the drawing for the cut out.





I put the whole case under the saw.



Not a saw broken.



After some work with the vile.



And it fits.





Next part the radiator.



This time with the Dremel.



It also fits.



No problem with the screws anymore.





The lower part from the case.



Now it’s waiting when my Canon 350 work well again. It’s broken.

 

hey why do you rip that award winning case? i thought you have enough sponsors to make a new one?

 

I find reinventing things is fun

Looks like this will be as killer as the first, good work so far.

 

Good to see you back at it Ediejo. You seem to work so fast that I hardly ever get the chance to comment on your threads. You should know though that I really like your work, it's really top notch and I don't wonder that you get all these sponsored goodies to play with

Keep up the amazing modding.

You have some great skills Ediejo, i can't wait to see the updates and the new direction your going with on the revised edition of a legendary mod already.

Nice to see you back on bit!

Good luck!

 

@widmod, I rip the first extreme lian li because it’s too big for in the house. It was on many events so it’s an old one now. I only can transport it with the caddy or an other big car. And the case if heavy about 100 kilo including the transport box. So I need every time somebody to help me to lift it in the car.

@Breach, I do my best. And I try to put some more detail work in the case now.

@darkened, yes I work fast that’s true only for this one I take my time. I hope I can make it better than the first one.

@x06jsp, maybe I can give you some new inspiration. And thanks for the nice posting.

@rowin4kicks, you must wait my Canon 350D camera is broken. For the second time in one year. Now I have no camera for some weeks.

 

im sure you will keep on giving me inspiration!!!! im currently making a case from scratch got any advice?
links in my sig.

cheers jos/gingermonkey

 

Good luck with this, although I'm sure you don't need it. Your work is amazing.

 

I font some time to work on the case again.
There is the possible to place two psu’s in this case. One at the bottom I and one in the top. I gone use the one in the top. So I start to make a whole new back. From Plexiglas and aluminum.

First part is from paper.





In the bottom part will come 2 x 80mm casefans.



Making the First part from acrylic



Some sanding work.



Cut out the inner part.



Also some sanding work.



Last part by hand.



That’s fit.







Ready for polishing.
See you soon.

 

Continue with the backside from the case. I think the out take at the back make some noise with all the holes. So I take it out.



Out is one part. To vile is the second part.



It must be straight so I need a line to see how far I can go.



And than sweating.



First part ready.



Next part the acrylic.





That’s something to handle with care. I won’t broke the small part acrylic.



See you soon.

Continue with the Plexiglas. Drawing the holes for the PSU.



I saw it a little bigger than the aluminum. So the last part by hand and Dremel





Then polishing the edges.









Same story only this time aluminum.





I cut the part that I need with the dremel.



The last part with the scroll-saw.



Looks much better than with the slots upstairs the psu.



It’s not 100% ready but it fit well. There is some work to do.







Sanding the aluminum.



Also take of the anodized part from the aluminum.



The First part what been polishing.



After the polish pasta, I do the same with AlU belgom.



After that the same again with metal polish van autoglym.







See you soon.
