Scratch Build – In Progress Project: OSIDIAS - Carbon fiber and 3D printed SFF (Jan. 2, 2020)

Or, you know, use resin with a longer working time.

 

Lol, if it were that easy. I'm using a medium marine grade epoxy that has a 30-35 minute pot time. Even the slow curing epoxy has the same pot life. The resin I'm using is some of the clearest you can get. Some resins have a yellowish or greenish tint after cured, and I couldn't accept that. Basically, I'll just need to work fast!

 

and we are over the result of your picky resin choices
keep up the high standards

 

Lol, picking the resin involved a whole lot more research than one would think.

 

Any news or updates Craig? You're killing me here.

 

Gah! Got sucked in by a random bumper!

 

Lol, no real updates yet. This week has been busy for me. It's the first full week of school for my girls. A freshman and a 3rd grader! So, I've been dealing with school related things. Tonight looks to be my first free night, and I'll see what I can get done for you guys.

 

Now that you've said something(didn't want to be a bump-bumper) I'll echo your "GAH!"

 

*uses shoelace to tie off arm*
god........ ionno if i can make it
*starts tapping vein*
im having withdraws again

 

What's amazyng with your mod it's that like chinese puzzle every piece seem shaped in a difficult form, only fit one way but when it's assembled the right way it fit's perfectly. What's even more amazng is that you are chossing yourself how to make the piece whereas in chinese puzzle you alway's wonder why all pieces aren't rectangular.
You kind of choose something really hard to do to be sure it's amazing

 

Lol, I'll get something up really soon.

Hang in there bro!

Thanks! It is quite the puzzle for sure. I've mentioned it before, but everything is laid out in millimeters. All of my tolerances are probably within .1mm of where I want them to be. That's pretty tight considering the materials I'm working with. I just take my time and it all works out.

Since you guys are so eager for an update, I do have something to show you. I'm thinking about showing my love for Asus ROG hardware, and might add this to the rear of the case. Thoughts? It would be subtly backlit of course.

 

TBH, I'd prefer it had no branding on it, besides your own.

 

I'd like it more if you only did the logo, ditched the text. It will look much less like an advert

 

Dat's da way to do it!

 

I 2nd this. No branding would be better. I think the case will speak for its self, the Carbon Fibre is all the branding you need.

 

yea no branding unless its sponsored. If anyone sponsors this build they would have to give you a lot of gear to make up for "cut"-in-advertisement" in the best case I have ever seen. I love this build!!!

 

I agree, don't put branding unless it is sponsored, don't give them free advertising! Although I do love the ROG logo.

Why don't you put your own logo?

 

I would prefer only the logo.

To maximus09 all sponsored mod aren't branded so all branded mod don't have to be sponsored ^^.

 

I would also like to see the logo or maybe create your own.... After creating such a mod I don't think it would be hard to come up with a logo

 

dude you just made my brain hurt

What about the ARES? That was sponsored by Asus, Intel, Corsiar and was ROG branded, love that mod.
