I decided it was about time to take your dirty dirty minds away from the pump.
![]() I've been thinking about a design for rad-grills for a while, and the final design is done. I was not really sure wether it would hold up in the mill without any support structure to clamp it down on the whole surface, but I decided to give it a go today. I started with the 120mm grill, as it was the easiest/fastest to mill! It turned out to work fine, and all my fears were put to shame! ![]() On with it: The first milling: ![]() Gone through were it's supposed to: ![]() Milling done: ![]() And the leftover pieces taken out: ![]() Looks might deceive as the ripples are not the plexi but the protective film. I'll keep that on until I'm done milling the outline! ![]() C ya soon guys!

That's awesome, so very original, and, erm, sciencey.

The DNA helix looks cool for the fan grill, although that's only one of a dozen of your ideas that I am enjoying.
But your comment to the "sciencey" remark triggered me to think about your earlier teaser. Something just triggered me to think about the DNA model. You don't have to answer if you prefer to keep me in suspense, but will the gear project in the earlier pages drive a rotating double helix for this mod?

That really does look cool. You are starting to make me want a mill (not that I'm going to be able to get one).

Since today is my birthday, I had nothing better to do than stay a couple of hours extra at work to get a couple of little things done, and also to mill the 240mm radgrill.
![]() I was actually going to finish up the 120mm while the other was in the cnc, but forgot the fact that I use the small plane in the cnc while I need it to do the other! ![]() So none of them are finished yet, but they will be tuesday the latest! ![]() On with the show! Milled the 240mm DNA radgrill: ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() The left-overs. Had you asked me to mill these, I'd have said "no way" ![]() ![]() Finally I decided how/where the rads would be mounted in the case. Blue 240 on one side, the red 120 on the other: ![]() ![]() ![]() That's it for now. Can't wait to get further on this, as it finally feels and looks like something useful!

If you want a more uniform glow, i would use some EL tape instead. The LED's wont disperse well enough to give a glow vs. spots of color.

Making a sciencey (
