Arya-update 14.5.
 

For the last three months I have been planning a small office/multimedia PC made of wood.
I was waiting to finish my semester at college and now,when it is over-I presend you my project-Arya.

Here are rendered images of Arya.

You have found your style. Will be following.:thumb:

Thanks. :thumb: Although, I don't understand-what do you mean when you say "You have found your style."?

I mean this has similar construction style as scorpio. and they both look awesome.

I see-thanks for explanation. They are similar construction because my friend's CNC machine only have two axes. If we had CNC with three axes, construction would be different a lot. :lol:

OOOH! You should have added a little extra material so you could sand the whole thing round.

You mean because the black stuff? I actualy like it that way. It shows the shape of case little bit better. :D

Todays progress-side panels assembled.

I knew it seemed familiar somehow... :D

Like your adaptation though, will be interesting to see how it looks finished! :)

That is nice design.

But this mod is not related to it in any way.

Thanks for the link. :)

Today work on the project continued.

Golden power switch with brown paracord on cable.

http://i1355.photobucket.com/albums/...psae6f7c56.jpg

Front panel had too long cables and too many connectors.

http://i1355.photobucket.com/albums/...ps300afc00.jpg

USB connectors are placed on mini PCB's with extended cables.

New parts arrived an hour ago. :D

Front part covered with leather, rear part and new spacers.

Today I placed fornt USB connectors and I/O shield. You can see the size od Arya compared to that I/O shield. :D

Looking good. I like the look of the front piece with the leather, combined with the wood.

This is really nice, :) got to love layers, enables complex shapes & retains strength. :D

Thanks jokkos. I am actually thinking of using more leather on Arya-maybe I cover this bottom ring with leather. :)

Thanks Waynio. :thumb: Layers are nice,but they are PITA to put together. :lol:

Ohh the joys of using layers, they are a pain aren't they :) The spacers make it a lil easier, how many times did you forget to use one and have to take it apart again ? :D

:D I didn't forgot any spacers,but few times rod fell out from hole and I had to put everything back. :wallbash:

Today I worked on the electronics again-this time it was the RGB LED's with remote control (now you know what the smallest hole in front serves for :D).

Of course I didn't like the look and size of the controller, so I mod it a "little". XD
