Ok well first off, this is my mate Vince's mod I'm just the helper/experienced modder/project logger here. The case is a pre-built acer computer case and so far we've cut the side panel. His plans are to put a red LED fan in the front of the case, and a white LED fan at the back. He's also thinking of bondoing up the front panel to get rid of the acer label. And after sanding he's contemplating the idea of a respray. I'm trying to get him to go with a jet black high gloss finish mmmmm. Anyway here are the pictures of our adventure so far. PLEASE NOTE: This is not my mod I didn't design anything I just cut stuff and am guiding etc. The side panel with its nice new design The tool The first cut The first hole The inside work place because it was raining after we started and also the panel is getting there Me cutting in the sheltered workplace My mate Vince cutting (oooh sparks!) More of Vince cutting More Vince... the panel is getting there A nice artistic closeup of Vince's handy work The window part. Finished! The fan hole design A nice artistic shot of my handy work on the fan hole More of my handy work The outside working place while I'm cutting the fan hole Finished. The panel back on its case. (the edges are still rough and there is no perspex but Vince is working on that) Well thats it so far. Hopefully he does well on his first mod. I think its going great so far and I love his designs.
Well well well, I says vinny has done a good job... I was talking with him earlier, and he said I got him into basic mods (i.e flashing lights and so forth) and when he was lookin at the cases, he started to think about doing his own design cuz the others were crap... He looked really into what he was doing there... Im glad he did it tho... it looks awesome
Small update! Vince got some goodies today, led fans and connectors yay! Here are some pics of the fans: Vince has planned for us to cut out, the same fan hole design on the side pane, on the front bezel, eliminating the acer part. I'm going to keep nagging him to paint etc too hehehe. I will see if I can get him to clean up the wires inside the case too.l
