Case Mod - In Progress Project M8 (CaseLabs M8 workstation mod) COMPLETED! Final pics on page 33

I hate you (brotherly lol ) for one thing though! I had that in my mind for a long time and I was about to use it !! But there was no f-ing way to do something so awesome!!!

 

That cable management isn´t just unique, it looks stunning aswell!!

 

I've been following this worklog for a while and I have to say it just keeps getting more impressive with every update. PC-Beto is one of my favourite mods ever and this one definitely is up there in that list as well. Really amazing work.

 

Thank you very much KoSoVaR

Interesting idea But I am afraid all the cables will be white But I will keep this in mind!

Never thought of it that way

Haha Thanks achron! I have that genius on several sweathers and t-shirts

Thanks Waynio I absolutely love doing cable management, and am glad that people like it

Haha thanks Pete!

Haha, do you think it will CF with this one ?

Haha Thanks alex

Great minds think alike

Thanks Quizz_kid!

Sooo, I have been wanting to do this for a long time, but today I decided it was now or never. So I hope you like this video People told me that they liked the way I recorded how I did some of the 3d drawings on pc-beto, so I thought why not do a time-lapse. Enjoy!

​

 

What is that hand thingy device ??? Nice video

 

Already looks super badass but wow when it's complete it will be more than a dream rig.

Sweet squished designing vid too mate. Did you find it prevented you from slacking off, did with mine.

I second the hand thingy device question also.

 

It's a 3d mouse: www.3dconnexion.com/index.php . Very popular in Denmark with people who work with 3d rendering, animation, etc.

 

Very nice vid How long did that really take you? always have been interested in 3D moddeling

 

Thank you all! And as Sutura said, it is this mouse (sorry for the language )

​

 

Ooo I like that mouse.

Along the same lines, I spent a few hours on Friday (bored at work) making a very accurate model of an SSD, a Crucial M4 to be exact (they're all the same!).

Here's a quick picture, but if you, or anyone else, needs the CAD model I'll stick it somewhere everyone can get it.

 

That looks really good achron

 

Update when I get home from the gym

Until then, teaser!

 

What format is the model? I'd love a copy if its SolidWorks, IGS, or STEP!

 

Love the cable holder things that you made. It makes everything look so clean and beautiful. Kudos to you sir, you are a genius.

 

Thank you very much man!

Ill include some already posted content in this update, just so everyone sees it

Update! As you have proberly guessed, I want to keep the amount of visible wires in this build to an absolute MINIMUM! That also includes harddrives.

​

People told me that they liked the way I recorded how I did some of the 3d drawings on pc-beto, so I thought why not do a time-lapse of a thing i had to make anyway. This whas what came out of that.



After 7 hours in the 3d printer, and around 100 cm^3 of material later, this what what i had.



And mounted on the harddrive rack I was very nervous to see if I had gotten all the measurements correct, but as you can see I NAILED it.



And how it looks when slided in. It is made so it will hold itself in place via friction.



A little look on the inside shows how the sata ports is connected. The path for the sata ports needs to be moved slightly to the right, as you can see the sata connector leaning a bit to the left. 0.5 - 1 mm should do it



Power and sata wires will come out the back



And i know i would have gotten my arse kicked if i did not post a picture of it mounted in the case

Thats it for today!

 

Droooooooool. Im running out of words to describe your build other than, AWESOME. Lots of inspiration for my build!

 

pope you are a true inspiration to any new or old modder out there

 

Dude


Mad overkill cable vanishing act of awesomeness nice, super nice work p0Pe.

 

That video was EPIC Hans!... Speechless!

 

Great Design Job! 3D printing is really awesome. I dont know anywhere in the USA that I can get it done, though, I haven't searched hard. To me there is just something in the quality about making with your own hands. Great work so far.
