    Nice work, Cyprio - luv the keyboard - and, I have the same for my project, picked i up at Bangkok Airport a while back, not to expensive either, around $50- aud.

    I just cannot get over at how aesthetically they were designed - pretty, and comfy :)

    Yeah, its a great design. Be warned though that you cant open them at all. There are no screws or anything.
    Which also means that if you spill anything on its its a goner. :(

    Not really as i have spilt a drink over one and aslong as u clean it up quick you wont have any problems and i think that since there is a little bit less space between keys and the frame helps keen liquid out a little bit but you still need to be careful as always.

    I have just moved house and havent unpacked fully yet so im guessing the next update will be in a couple of weeks guys. On the plus side i now have a lovely Nikon D40 DSLR to take pics with rather than my tiny little Pentax compact. :D:rock:

    Thanks for the kind words -Nick-. :)

    Im back guys. :)

    No update on the mod but i am almost fully unpacked, the case seems to have survived the move fine and as you can see i now have an ADSL line hooked up.

    Stay tuned for the weekend.

    Give him a chance! Packing, moving, unpacking, decorating, fixing, re arraigning things, takes time.


    Ok Enough time! Where's the updates already:D

    John - waiting

    Dang.. I have been inspired!

    Awesome detail on this, i can't stress enough how beautiful the case is. It's just beautiful...

    Hope mine looks HALF as good as this, if it does I'll be happy :D

    the best bit i love about this G5 mod is the case will last so many upgrades, by slapping a lian li MB tray in it. loving it, and wanting it!

    Hey all,

    I am actually at home today so am planning to get some work done and take some better pics of the case now that i have a dSLR. :D

    What is left:

    1. The door window and Aquaero - i had posted some pics of this really early on but i have had to change my plans slightly...
    2. The black perspex/grills that will cover the radiator fans.
    3. The water cooling loop - Tom over at Chilled Pc's is helping me out with some modified blocks for my Abit IP35 Pro and then that needs assembling.
    4. Hard disk mount - this will be a combination of perspex and aluminium.
    5. Lighting inside case.

    Im sure other bits and bobs will come up along the way as they do. :)

    Cyp.
