Thank Mambro

Update !!

Before u could start with paint praying the case i had to work on a few details.
Few Updates ago i removed some pieces from the HDDcage and 5.25 bay to remove unevenness in the metal.





With a some aluminum i fixed the the detailing.



Test fit if it fits perfect.



When the pieces fit perfect i could glue the part together with bison metal metal glue.











This has to hard out for 24 hours before u can sand it of use it for it final purpose.









When the 2 parts where ready it was time to take the case apart.



This makes it easy for to transport the case to my work. All the part fit perfectly in my backpack. So i can transport it with my motorcycle. At work i can start with sanding all the parts and pray painting it.

Primer





After 2 layers of primer and finish lak the pieces where ready







Placed the parts in place just to have a look at it.









When i came home i immediately putted the case back together and places the hardware back in.







Cya tomorrow for next update.

Great paint job man, keep them coming

[alain-s]

Thx tomorrow i will post the next one

[k.3nny]

verry nice

[alain-s]

I want to thank Mickel from Imatex for supporting the project with free plexi glas
IMATEX

Placed all the pieces next to each other to give u all a overall look of all the parts that still needed to be placed in and on the case





I started at once i had the pieces.
Just had to drill a few holes to some screws so i can easily mount the plexi on the case.

















Paint sprayed the radiator cap also in white so it will fit with all the rest.



Placed my 8gb ram from project white on the MB. Got my self 16Gb for my main pc



Now that the radiator cap is finished i can polish the dariator it self with Commandand Nr4
U can see the difference between the 1 that is done and the rest.







Placed the radiator on is place at once.





Next step is making a small piece of plexi to place it at the site of the 5.25 bay.





Display in it.









This is how the case looks now















Cya tomorrow for the next Update

I really like what you do with copper tubing. Excellent.
Are you nickel plating again or leaving the natural copper?

[bulldogjeff]

Update

In Kiers build i saw that he engraved his sponsors on a piece of plexiglas so i am gonna copy that idea and use it my self
Engraved the Cooler Master, MSI and Hardware info logo's on it



Time to start with the sidepanel i brought them to my work where i can work on it without complaints from my neighbors







First panel done on to the next one. the other will be a little more complicated with the drawing on it.







Both panels have bins filed and sanded when they where done.



Time to start with the painting



When the paint was drying i started to drill the holes in the plexi so i can mount them on the side panel.





When primer was done i only had to spray 2 layer of finish lak



After a few hours the paint was dry and i could take the panels home again. Placed the plexi glass on it.







Power on







Next step was to make a short 24 pin cable.



Cutting of the female plug.





Making a male to male cable that is a lot shorter then the original Cooler Master 24 pin power cable. To prevent having to much wires in the case. Did the same thing for the 8 pin MB and 6 pin PCI





Testing if the pc still works and it did







Removed the protective foil from the other panel. I need to say that it gives a nice effect with the smoke plexi glas



Made a small movie of the case just click on the picture



Added some leds to the sponsor plate.



Placed it on the the sidepanel











The idea is to isolate the bleeding of the light so that have light where i want it to
Also placed 2 3mm led in the EK cpu block



Its a shame that my camera cant make good photo's with red lights.







A few more things to do on the case it self and then it is finished. then i can start with the front of the case.
