Modding Casemod Project: Quad 88

Software eject: the ultimate button stealthing.

 

lol cheapskate! My DVD rom is software eject only. But not on purpose! Hit the button a few weeks ago and nothing happend. So i pushed the button agian & this little copperish circle of metal fell onto my desk. So now the button is just squishy and does nothing. Thankfully the drive still works! Maybe it's time to stealth?

 

lol mines software eject too, i spent too much time polishing my front panel and for got to leave a hole for a button.

Hey Guys! It's been a week since i updated but i just started school again so I first had to get into that again.

Here are some photo's of the new motherboard i got and the Acrylic that Acryan sent me:

​

I hope i'll have time next week and this weekend to work on the acrylic. I am also looking for a nice fan controller to mod, but that seems to be harder then expected.

About the stealth mod I just made it software openable. For me there is no need to press the darn thing every time i want it open (talking about prehistoric! )

 

I like the way this mod is progressing, i did seee a guide before that showed you how to stealth the drives in a similar way and still be able to use the button on the front, they used some foam double sided tape i think.

 

Naberius: like this? http://www.bit-tech.net/modding/2007/12/30/macro_case/2

 

hehe, yeah guys i know how to make that, i've done it before. I just couldn't be arsed to do it

Anyways: keep checking my thread for the update about my frontpanel! It's going to be AWESEOM

 

I found myself an old zalman fancontroller! Well i just modded it and this is how it looks right now (still needs work!):








I'm sorry for the bad pic quality, but my old camera's memory is RIP :'(

 

After a long day of trial and error i was able to create this:

Looking good! Love the fan controller design. keep us posted.

 

I made a nice mold of cardboard today:



After that i threw out the acrylic in my current sidepanel window and drew some parts on the acrylic i got from acryan



Don't tell me i don't use my material efficient !

there are still a lot more molds to be made and acrylic to be cut and sidepanels to re-creat and and and .. A LOT MORE!

LAST BUT NOT LEAST: I BOUGHT A DANGER DEN WATER COOLING SET!



Update coming soon
