Case Mod - In Progress "Cross-Section" by Paladin

Hi, I'm starting the same time my next project.

It is a converted Coolermaster CM 690th.
Many thanks to
Cooler Master that I have the case made ​​available.

The name is the motto.

Here is an example picture of what it means.



So actually the case remains in its original condition. I cut hald many holes in, so that one sees on the hardware.

I do sometimes a small list of what is planned now to this:

• Case cut back on eck, as well as a fan is halved, also see so the CPU cooler is also open.
• A Ram bar is cut in half, but nothing can happen that the contacts are worn, so that only the PCB inside plugged
• with a graphics card the same thing happens.
• A HDD is also tuned to believe.
• Up front will be installed a DVD drive that also gets a cut. Whether this is supposed to work yet is still unclear. If not, we are including a second installed that will go away.
• I want to cut the ATX cable by which you can see the cross section of the cable bundle. I will then versichen covered a 2nd to install. possibly laterally from the connector. If necessary, solder as well, although I am not the friend of them.
• what I will do more then I decide if I fall over her. Maybe one of you have come so good tips.

Here are some pictures of the untouched state.


















Today I've already started it. Update is perhaps

 

Today I finally started with the "Cross-Section" Case.
First, I've spent half an Creppband role to figure out where I cut holes that clean: D

Then it was fate. First of coarse with the hacksaw, and then continues with the separating grinder. I also made a movie that I'm ready but not until tomorrow.
Before the question comes on ... the power supply gets a perspex paneling.

In the front hole is then later a drive that is also open. This should also work then.



















So, that's it again ...

 

Great! I like the idea. It has lots of work and fun involved in it.

 

Thanks

Here I have the introductory video. The video from cutting comes tomorrow

(its German)

 

Really novel idea.

I watch

john

 

german engineering...you'll never cease to baffle me! XD

 

Thanks

I am now Online @LiveModding

 

I never seen mod like this,but looks cool.

 

Paladin

How do you do livestream??

It´s an interesting idea

 

Realy great idea

 

I really like the idea... Now, let's see how you do it...For now, I can't say if it is going to be epic or disappointing, because the challenge is high I think

 

Sorry but cutting the Psu with no protection from " little fingers" is just stupid mate , like the idea alot , but to the psu is stupid , imagine if a small child touched it or even your toe or something , with me having a 1 and half year old its spinning round my head like a mad man at the moment , sorry ,

like the project good idea mate well done will be looking aver this project

 

with www.ustream.tv

I also hope that it works

That's what I wrote in my update.

Here is the video from cutting...

 

Nice video and a interessting project.

 

Today was not the case further, but in something which is then installed.

Here, the victim of a defect 8800GTX ...





I am about the only thing like time with the angle grinder ago




That was cut out after it ... not very nice



...first disassembled, all cleaned and filed.





The other cover was indeed such an ugly stickers on it. I did not get off. But I was still a 2nd defective 8800GTX lying around. So from then stole the cover.









To create later in the motherboard is not shorted, I sanded the pins on the PCB.



So, that's it again.

 

I can't wait to see how you get that 8800GTX to work [sarcasm].

I love the unique concept. I'll definitely be following this one.
So where are you from in lower Bavaria? Munchen?

 

Munich is Upper Bavaria I am more near Straubing, "Simbach bei Landau" is the name of village.

I will try to make it look so the graphics card still works, by which I solder a cable from the onboard graphics with the connection of the 8800GTX

 

Here are some pictures of the untouched state.

 

Today I thought I once made ​​the next cut. Since the graphics card is below the upper section they are seen only bad.





Therefore, I will later make a cut.
This was the first idea, but to me not so liked...



...so I've from this picture...



...and this...



...the here done with a photo editing program. Was haltet ihr davon?



Then I taped a second cut.





In the top is a HDD bay. I would edit a HDD and poke it in




So, what do you think fits ... so? Do you have any other suggestions?

 

You have way to many projects going on but this is awesome. Love it. No suggestions yet..
