Case Mod - In Progress Rebirth ..... Completed... Total cost £132..

Only going to have a few hours, but that'll be time enough to make some progress

I was never happy with the door on the front, so after a little chat with the owner and chief designer ( Dylan ) he came up with an idea and if I say so myself, I absolutely love it .

 

MOAR UPDATESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS *cough cough* Excuse me... where was I... oh yes... MOARRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR!!!

Sorry about that everyone.. Just addicted to Jeff's awesome modding skills.. hmm *gives Jeff his favorite liquor drinks*

 

Lol

 

Just for you there is one coming right about now ...LOL

 

Right the , so the sun came out and I have managed to get a few hours done on the build.
So with out further ado here's what I've been up to..

First up. I was never totally happy with the front door. So Dylan came up with a little idea the set me of in another direction with it..

This was the way it was before...



And after an hour of playing with the jig saw, Dylans idea came to life...



After that I smoothed out the top panel and the one at the front, the main reason being that apart from looking better, there will no longer be room for the USB's and other bits that live there....

Dylan done some of the work as well..It's his build after all











He even done some of the spraying. I was expecting runs and patches but he took to it like a duck to water, all came out really well.



And here's it all rough fitted back together...Don't know about you guys, but I quite like it...

 

Thats looking great Jeff Dylans got the modding bug soon he will be showing you how to do it

 

He wants to be involved with everything.
He can falatten back the paint when that time comes , see how much fun he thinks that is..lol

 

Shame I cant rep him mate, So I've repped you instead

 

Nice one mate. Looking forward to the paint work now

 

Shall I open his own account and get the log moved over to it..lol

Thanks Mark.
Take no notice of the white, thats just under coat.

 

My only concern so far is dust; You might have to get inventive with hiding dust filters on those intakes, or otherwise keep the hoover handy to clean it out every now and again.

Other than that; It's turning out to be a pretty damn good project! Always good to get started at a young age, so the skills are already in place when they want to go off and start modding for themselves!

 

To get the look right I'll have to live with the dust, won't be the first time. The rig thats going in here is running on air, Dylan put a lot of that together himself, under my watchful eye. He's just got hard core geek in his DNA lol...

When he's not playing football, thats his other passion.

 

Looking very nice you're doing a grand job there, Dylan So what colour scheme are you going to have? Not too much bling I hope, unlike your father

 

I have already had to kind of shift him away from flames, he's got them already on Heat Blast..

This is going to be some thing altogether more subtle.

The chassis is getting finished up and painted as we speak..

 

I wasn't asking you I was asking Dylan

 

Oh I see like that is it now...lol

I just rang him and he said the paint scheme is top secret.. Translation, he hasn't made his mind up yet

 

I have absolutely no idea what you're on about, but I'll take a wild guess that you like it

 

OMG another update, thats 2 in as many days...wooohooo

Being so keen to get stuck in to the chassis I totally forgot to take any pics at the beginning, but if you go back to the first page of this build you'll get an idea of what it was like.





And a few of it with the new front panel, grill and nose cone.





There may even be another update tomorrow...lol

 

nice work! and I'm glad to see Dylan being a part of it. I think that i will start a mod soon with my daughter's help - to help her get interested in computers and modding...
Great work so far - keep it up!
