    Time for the next worklog :clap:

    At the moment we´re competing in that Enermax & We-mod-it Casecon Contest so it´s time to start a new worklog for it....

    Our plannings for this build were really raw, because we choose to develop it during the building process....we have a raw idea in which direction we´re heading but we didn´t made much sketches, 3d renders or something like that....

    This build will mostly be made of aluminium and it will be watercooled....but everything else....we will see....


    Ok, i have to admit....we did a sketch ....pen & paper and really raw...but thats the only sketch we did up to now....:naughty: and it was only done so that my brother could easier explain his idea to me....:hehe:

    after making this piece of art:hehe: we started to cut out the mainboardtray....:clap:

    thanks a lot m8!
    i didn´t see the log of Zesti before, but after scrolling through the pages ...i really like it & hope that he will finish it!





    We have a new little supply of pics for you...
    In the last days we overworked the radiator parts a little more....beside that we also prepared a plate on which we can mount all parts of the radiator. But before we started to work on the radiator again, we first finished the next pieces of the base frame so that we could mount it for a first test....

    thanks m8!!!

    Time for a small update :clap:

    In the last days we recycled an "old" ATCS Sidepanel, first we disassembled the parts which are used to mount it on the chassis and after that we used the rest of the aluminium as a next layer for our project :clap:

    time for a small update:

    we couldn´t make much progress in the last days, because we were busy finishing the 666 Project, but we managed to cut out the first layer of the sidepanel and we also started to polish the front sheds....

    It´s time for the next status update::clap:

    In the last couple of days we made a lot of those little things like drilling holes, countersinks, thread cutting...etc...

    Beside that we also cutted the front sheds to the right length and prepared the next sheet of metal, which will be used inside the case.....

    As next we´re going to continue with the top and bottom of the case so that we could speed up the building process a little bit...

    thanks a lot!!!


    Time for an update again :thumb:

    In the last days we continued the work on Top & Bottom, first we cut out the holes for the fans and made everything necessary to mount the fans on the bottom panel, then we started to make a grill for the top of the case which matches the look of the front....

    We also started to build the reservoir for the watercooling loop and we painted the first parts....
