nice finish on the paint job. that glossy red is super nice looking. excellent engraving.

 

Nice engraving mate,looks real cool.keep it up.

 

It looks great and the engravings are just stunning, but the three fans in the lower chamber aren't really gonna do you any good. Just have one or two in there and throw alteast one away...

 

Thanx for Your tip!
Progress going slowly forward.

Do Somebody out there,know where i can order 3D stickers(basicly in Europe or elsewhere),in the same style(Ferrari style) and different sizes, as this man profile on this case ?

 

That would say,You`ve tried this,and know, it do not work out in this way?

 

Well i couldnt really ressist staying away today neither,so i took out the PSU ramp from the newely mounted cabinet,stripped it for paint,have a nice conversation with mr Dremel and that ended out like this:

Where am i`m going to put it?Inside the PSU ramp ,yes it`s going to be red once again.The four drilled holes on the top is ment for rubber grommets to avoid "noice" from the PSU.The four frames in the grille will have an LED each, offcourse in the colour red,an illution here:

 

Wow, just wow. I love it... would it be possible to get it to look more like the back end of a 360?

And where on earth did you get such a small Ferrari badge?

I'm taking notes

Looks fantastic mate. Keep it up.

 

Well there have been a little progress today also,any way i have to wait for the paint to get dry,so i decided to get ready with the leds in the grille:



A little LED test:

 

A mini update,ramp ready painted,and the LED`s are working really nice.

 

very nice [/borat]

 

That looks so good painted mate. Excellent work on replicating that look.

 

And where on earth did you get such a small Ferrari badge?

I`ve collected Ferrari scale model cars for about 20 years,somtimes there happens to be some leftovers.

 

Haha, love the little badge and LEDs
Look forward to seeing it finished.

 

Some new updates,18.10.08

Have to do something with the fan controllers:

They turned out to look like this:


I also found a knob, who need to be integrated into the front as the power switch,not yet finnished,as so long it look like this:

The whole front, by the time temporary assembled:

There are also some new fans to be mounted,more correctly colouring on these ones:


And I still waiting for my new flexishaft(to the Dremel) from UK,to finish up the engraving on the other side of my case,the old one broke down,hanging in my pants while working

Much more to come...........................................

 

WOW!!! I love your attention to detail. Th little Ferrari logos on the fan knobs and around the place mixed with the CF looks great.

 

doubletake

Wow that's some great stuff!
How many scale model ferrari did you have to dismantle to get the logos for the knobs? I like that look a lot. Great details. I especially like that engine start button you found.
I think I said it before, but you've got some amazing engraving skills, and that painting is not shabby either.

This sentence just made me laugh... no offense meant. I've just got a dirty mind.

 

New updates 21.10.08

Details inside the case,covered with carbon film


The cabinet door on the right side,with the newly engraved Ferrari logo,(Done with the Dremel and flexishaft)believe me:its hard getting straight lines, I`ll figure out something to straight them up.


And thanx to all you guys,who gives feed back to my project nice ya like it!!! Thanx again
