Remember those Coolermaster fans at the start? Using them along with those grills. Looks pretty nice! First pic has the fans on with the flash on... Flash off Flash! And out of bordum, I had a extra MATX celeron +ram, so i tested the leds and power button that I also wired today. Well, off to school for midterms. Hopefully I can get the motherboard soon... Spyder.
looks great. are you gonna take everything out of the frame and polish up the aluminum to look all shiny like the fan grill?
Thanks Guys~ Those fan grills are chrome, and I really wish I had the time to polish everything really well. But It is going to be sitting in a trunk......
Well, After a long weekend I finally got it done! Not quite as I wanted.... But dont none the less. Heres the Via 1000 motherboard, 512 of pc 2700, 80gig Hitachi Deskstar, and a Linksys 2.4gig wireless card. I set the motherboard on some scraps of aluminum to get a height estmate, and to figure where the 4 mounting holes will go... I ended up using some old standoffs that were just under 1/2inch tall, and counter sunk them in the plexi so a bolt could be threaded on the bottom. Well, It all fits in there, and the mounting seems to work good. Now here is what I had to rush on... Instead of cutting everything out and finishing it, I had to scrape for time and just hack out the backplate to fit... Eh it works! Heres how the bottom turned out with the standoff mounting.
Ohhh pretty! lol. All the bolts are in, everything fit! Here you can see how I cut the extra 1134 and USB 2.0 bracket to fit... Not bad.... Now lets see if it works.... Crosses fingers!! Its ALIVE!
And off to my friends it went... Here it sits for now in the trunk of his car running a 7inch touchscreen, gps, mps, divx, and probably pron knowing him.... The screen... The custom touch screen menu... And thats all folks! Onto my next project....
is it a post about the car or about the sexy cube box ? I love it, but just one black point, you should have put more lighting in it, no ? me thinks is too dark inside this nice work anyway
Nice work man, but wouldn't it have been nicer to have the alu corners at the inside of the case? I think your cube is slightly bigger than mine, which is better because I had to put too much stuff in a very tight space! Do you have plans for any other projects? ps. you can check my project here.
Theres alot I could have done different... but Im happy with this for now... Heres the Install Pics in the Jetta, I will try to find out what software. http://sigma.pchardwaremods.com/images/jetta/ Next project is in the works....
