Macro Case - by Macroman

discuss away!

http://www.bit-tech.net/modding/2007/12/30/macro_case/1

Back from the depths of modding history, via the bit-tech.net wayback machine - we remember the first mod from our very own Macroman. He shows us how he created a winning case - stealth mod heaven!

To the untrained eye you could miss a lot and see nothing. I'm just glad the judges didn't.

In the spirit of modding a big thanks for sharing and caring.

LARGE slap on the back young man.

I love that, stealth mods rule!! fantastic optical cable idea!!

/me thinks macro should be employed by coolermaster/Lian Li and design their cases and mods for them

Now that's modding to the next level! Excellent work macroman. But you didn't tell us about the color changing case LED!


question for Fly: Is there anything special I should know about ordering from Maplins from the US? Is shipping through the roof? thanks

I love the sunken Rheostats's baybus and I want to test this out on the next case mod that I do. Great work overall on the Lian Li, nice to see people seperating from the norm.

which takes hours from personal experience, you need a lot of patience to do that. Macroman is an expert filer !!

You'd be mad o order from maplins to the US - i bet half their stock comes from the US anyway...

Get stuff from Radio Shack, or another similar US Electronics store...
