Looking gorgeous so far Mag . I keep telling myself to learn LED lighting but I keep being lazy & doing nothing about it .
Maybe next jear. And a short Update: This will be the "lighted push-button plate" behind the logo. Needless to say that I use LED again. Connected and... ... testet Tomorrow more.
Great sponsorship MaG Very nice the light effect and also the color on the Slotin !!! I am curious... where did you install the leds to light up the slot, both on the upper and lower side? How did you fix the plexy to the chassis?! Ciao
The LED are only on the lower side. I use some superglue to hold the Plexi in Place. After the glue dry I also use some polyester resin on the edges. To hold the "lighted push-button plate" in place I use 10mm platte. Used but effectual. The inner plate. White for a brighter surface behind the "lighted push-button plate" With 4 bolts it cant go anywhere... For the switching I glue some 4,3mm push-buttons with polyester resin in place. To connect the LED and the buttons I use an old part from a broken Mainbord. Done. On the inner side i use e pin-and-socket connector toconnect the "lighted push-button plate". -> Easy to remove. This sis the inner view. Again I use some superglue and polyester resin on the edges to hold the things in place. This USB connector is also from a old Mainbord. Nearly done. Just some more precision work precisely.
Nice to see old parts being reused. I like the look of this project so far. I look forward to seeing more.
To fix the USB stuff I use a plate, big enough to offer a sufficient "glue-area" The opening is big enough to push the connector from the back in th eplexi. Not only the connectors get some hot glue And after the sleeving.... more glue.
Another important detail are the case-feet. To get a nice thickness, I need two 10mm parts. Here just a short preview: By the way: The final feet get a better machining.
To cut the side panaels I use my new saw station. The cuts become perfectly straght. The long side I cut freehand. From my point of view it's a pretty good job. Done Again some LED. And with less light.
Today I got the parts for the cooling. This is again one step further to the "day of paint" Again: THANK YOU TFC / The Feser Company for the supporting.

This grille will look great after the painting Some other important parts: I think the hose system will do a good job. And some putty for the radiator bolts.
