    Thank you for the advice.

    I have been busy with work for some time now. But I got started on the sleeving and got mounted the last caseparts, made by Hex Gear :)
    The grills are made form the same acrylic as the accents.

    Got a hole bunch of sleeving done today.
    Now I'm only waiting for the last fittings, so I can get started on the tubing.

    So, got a few things done this weekend. Despite having a sick daughter :(

    I started with installing one of the dust filters.

    Then I got to the tubing, it turned out okay, but can't really "bend" my head around that GPU>CPU tube. But I will try making a few other bends, and then "frost" all the tubes, and see how It looks.

    The day has finally come, where the build is "almost" done :clap:

    The only thing missing, is for me to make the SLi bridge light up with red light.
