Case Mod - In Progress !!! Project White Completed New Pictures on Page 16 !!!

very nice paint job

 

Think I'd go with the last one, gives a much nicer all round look and more balanced feel to the loop

Coming along great dude, really like the colour scheme and the solid copper tubing

 

Looking good so far, I'm looking forward to seeing more. Congrats on the MOTM nomination BTW .

 

Thanks

Here is a small teaser got no time for update but wanted to share this with your guys ^^

 

Very good work alain!!

 

Haven't looked at this in a while and needless to say I'm very impressed, I love the power supply!
Well done!

UPDATE 07
This week i worked on my bay holders. My first design that i have made wasn't really what i expected.
Picture's will tell the story


Personally i don't like it. It looks to basic and wouldn't really fit with the rest.
I started to look for something else then and then i thought to use the original bay holders from Silverstone and redesign it. ^^

Putted some tape on it and start the drawings


Cutted it out

Then the finished product


Mounted it to check if it would fit nice

And yes it fits perfect ^^

Cdrom in it


then the total picture


The next thing to do fix the mounting for the HDD and make a new Cdrom holder

UPDATE 08

Time for a update ^^
it has bin a while when i posted some progress.
The reason here for was that i wasn't completely satisfied with the original idea of placing the HDD cage against the case.

This is not really fitting with the rest of the parts. So started to dismantling the HDD cage and
started to draw some new pieces.



Dropped 1 piece :s

Lucky for me that the pieces are going to be painted so i glued it back to getter.
Here is the pcb from the hotswap.




This is how it need to look like.

Sanded all the pieces and putted every thing back to getter



I even made some HDD cooling (fan will be replaced with a other 1




Mounted the hole thing against it

Holes for the cables


Then i also had to make a new Slimdrive holder



The mounting mechanism can be changed but i don't know yet



Like this i can cover up all the cables between the front plate en de plate behind it


HDD in the hotswap


This is it ^^ tomorrow i need to get some new screws to finish it off then this part is ready.

Keeping the design going there. Getting a decent frosted acrylic look is difficult but i didnt see much in the way of lines or uneven sanding so nice work there as well.

 

thanks ^^
But the plan is to paint all the parts in white.

 

Update 09

Small update of the painting and the extra hardware that i got from a friend yesterday.
First i dismantled my raptor HDD so i could paint the housing.

I got some 2 component filler to remove the lian li logo's.




2 layers of primer and after that the white paint

Then the other parts Before it started to paint those i did some miner improvement on the holes. So the bolts sink in the object.



Painting ^^

Putting it all back together.






Then the hardware that i got to borrow
I got these part from from a very good friend. In the past i modded his Corsair 800D
Here is a picture of the pc that i made for him.

The parts that i got where GPU CPU motherboard ram.
Asus HAD 4870x2



Motherboard is Asus P5Q PRO cpu is a core duo something and the ram dono what kind or speed labels are removed.


The next steps are sending my Gigabyte P67A UD5 back to the shop to get the B3 version of it.
When i got my new motherboard i can start to build in all pieces.
So i can start to cut and bend the copper pipes.
