Small sneak peak

Have bin working on the last part for the side panel. The piece U will see is just a try out. But I need to admit that it is looking great already.







Will make a short Video of how a made it.

Update!!

Last weekend I went to Pascal (Paslis) to get some freshly made parts for my project.



As U can see there are already cuts in the sheet of Aluminium. This was done with a cuttinglazer and will help me to create the air vents in the panel.





Started with making a negative mold for the vent. These pieces where made my lazercutting machine. But they still needed some work before it would be ready to use.
Had to file the shape of the Vent in to the piece. After that it needed some sanding to smooth the edges out.





Finished product.





The rest U will need to follow in these 2 video's I have made. This is the best way for me to show/explain how I made it.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cgqUc...2&feature=plcp

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jAAXa...1&feature=plcp

After a hour of work U get this as end result.









I have also started to work on the top grill of the case. This part will need to get the same look as the front grill of the case.









To give U a Idea of how it will look like.





Just need to find a good way to attach it all.





That is it again, thank U for reading.

Fantastic Alain! I've often thought about 'shark gill' vents but couldn't figure a way to make them. Mainly making a cut thin enough. But you show us how.

Always wondered how that vent trick could be done manually, awesome pieces.

Could do that without lasers but would have to tweak the idea a touch so I could make a start hole but that's a heck of an awesome jig idea, like it a lot.

Heck of an awesome case mod, you are massively improving this case.

Glorious! Love the front grilles and... everything else.
Your way of making the louver vents was rather ingenious. I would have bought a cheap vent press (and made a dozen bad attempts) instead.
Being friends with Paslis has a strange effect on on the friend's build quality. Your work was always slick, but now...

Thanks Waynio U probably can drill a 1.5mm hole and then use your imba Jigsaw to make the cut.

Continued the work on the side panel this week. All the pieces are finished for 1 panel I just need to put it together and finish it of.





Had a small issue with using different materials together. The place where the Aluminium and the plexi joins always cracked.



Got my Dremmel and started to cut the shape out. Filled it afterword with 2K Epoxy glue.



Again filling and sanding the panel till it all feels smooth.



Had to repeat the process several times over and over before I could spray some primer on it. With the panel in white I can easily spot the last errors in the panel and fix them.











As U can see there are still some spots that need some attention before the front of the panel is finished. After that I can continue to work on the other side of the panel. This side still need a lot of preparation before it is ready.
