    Update !!!!

    4 days left before the case needs to be finished.

    Continued my work on the front. Filled the edges up with 2K filler And sanded it all smooth. Had to repeat this proces several time before it was ready.

    Colour on it.

    Next step was to finish the top/res. Started to sand it 240 Grid and ended 2000Grid. After that I polished the top/res with Commandant nr4 to give it a clean bling bling finish. :D

    After

    After spending few hour on the top/res. I started with the pump mount. My first idea to attach it on the mobo tray. But with the weight and vibrations I changed my mind. Made the mount from a Aluminum L profile.

    When all the pieces where finished I could finally start with installing all the pieces.

    Made a short movie of the res with all the rest enjoy :D

    Next up was cable management. I asked Nate to add some 8x8mm plexi bars with the top/res.

    [​IMG]

    After some filing and sanding I made this cable holder. Will do the same for all the rest of the power cables.

    This build is looking superb, I really like it. But the 2 things that really stand out for me are the reservoir, that it amazing and the cable management on the back of the case, so neat and tidy.

    The top res looks awesome, but I even more love how you made the wires in the 24-pin ATX cable run SO nicely beside each other. Respect! And +rep, too...

    Really some out of the box thinking on the top. I love it nice clean wiring, very neat and well thought out. +1 rep for that. I hope you finish it on time the deadline is getting close do I sense sleepless nights on the horizon?
