    Nice one Phil!
    Is that flat black? and if so, has it lasted? (no chipping or getting dusty and hard to clean etc.)

    LOL RTT,

    Sledge Hammer Mod, Nice, did it have good thermal airflow qualities.

    And i like the blowhole in the side panel.

    LOL
    But i have bettered you there.

    Once decided to douse my Full tower in a combo of lighter fuel and old paint.

    Put a 3 metre fuse wire on it and watched the mother burn.

    That 486 Certainly did burn its core, in a a heavy "overclocking" session

    I made my own UV spiral wrap. I bought clear spiral wrap from home depot. Then I bought the PCB conformal coating spray that is in the Fan Painting article. The spray I got is silicon based. Took all the stuff outback and sprayed the clear spiral wrap. The spray dries clear so no discoloration. After drying, I wrapped all my ribbons and power cords and it worked! Hopefully I can get some pictures up soon.

    Hye styles

    I'd like to see how it looks cause I'm stuck now should I get the uv tube or just get the clear stuff at home depot and paint it. Plus i'm having a hard time finding a site to order from that dosen't have a bunch of dead links. i'm kind of if-y about putting my card number into a site that looks like something I made in notepad you could also email me pics if you get the time and read this = )

    Has anyone tried cutting the tubing lengthwise to make beading. Should look good to edge motherboard/cards/blowholes. Sharp corners need to be mitred.

    www.glowshop.com in Birmingham now have a working online shop. Neon string is on special offer at 1/2 price. Minimum order is 10m, but can be made up of assorted sizes and colours. They will post worldwide.

    Is the PCB conformal coating spray really UV reflective?
