DoOb's

 

have you done any other mods? as you will not get any sponsors unless you have either done other mods or done quite a lot of the main work on this one.

and also havve you even read the rules???? i think number 2 is that you are not supposed to post in the project logs section untill you have actually started modding.

 

Aaaah my bad. No havent got that far yet. Well i have done two others, but not on here.

Mods can close if need be, but im gonna have enuf posts pretty soon to be here

 

Nice Ideas Really! I can't wait to see the action. Amazing! Well done.

Good luck.

 

They don't have to close it, they can just move it to the Modding thread and move it back when it qualifies. But if you get some actual work posts in pretty quickly they probnably won't bother.

Your previous mods don't have to be in this forum for prospective sponsors to get an idea of what you do.

I like the separate compartment for the WC stuff. Looks like a promising design. Keep it up!

 

Thanks Dacust, yea gonna get on it A.S.A.P just sourcing Alli and then im on my way.

I'm gonna do a model out of corra cardboard, so i can get all the right sizes, then i will start then real case. That way i have better way of solving solutions before they happen in my real case and wont make mistakes that could arise.

 

This coulde be interesting. I like your design.

 

Thanks NZ_mod_man

Ok so i phoned the Aluminium place earlier, and they sell big sheets for a decent price, a price where you can make a case. And they can also do cut cuts. Which is what i need to have a accurate nice looking chassis, with no crappy edges.

Also done some measuring up.

Length of the case will be just about 56cm long, 42cm in Height and 30cm in width. No bad i rate. Length for this is a must becoz of pump and res being in the compartment together. Should wourk out pretty well.

 

What my pc is looking like now, lol

 

I've heard many-a-bad-thing about those Waterchill connectors. How are they holding up?

 

WOW! This is so so sos nice! The water cooling is amazing!!! WOWOW, This is kickass, Can't wait to see the mod!

Good luck.

 

Well the connector did leak but that one you see there is a new one i bought. Works very well, no leaks and high performance, got it from here, with 5 10mm barbs aswell
