    Hi pplz, ok i have stood back and watched all this for to long, I singed up to day because I am taking the leap and starting to build my first case, It may take a wile to do as I am a little short in the $$$ part. but I have some stuff ready to go, not all of it but some cool toys to go in to it. EG: H2O kit,

    The frame work is a bit light so we might have to fix that up a bit.

    hope that you come up with something nice to do with it! and if you want a window, dont do a boring one.. theres loads of ways of making fun windows!

    You can always put a propane tank in it and shoot at it! *jk*

    I DEMAND you edit out the '*jk*', that sounds like a fun project log.

    Any plans drawn up for this case? I understand if not, I hate drawing :sigh:, but I'd like to see what you wanna do with it.

Yes Its a New Cheap case, But then I am not using much of it :hehe: You ill have to wait and see what I do, I would post the plans I have for this but I don’t have a scanner and I have tried to take a photo of them but you just cant see them well in the photo. :sigh: I did up a little diagram in paint, but I’m not going to post that :hehe: It looks like a 5 year old did it :baby: :hehe: I would truly get picked on if I put that up :hehe: I can tell you about my plans :dremel: I don’t want to give away to much at this stage but its Got Windows, 2 of them, and no NOT just some plane oval things.... it will all be hand carved in wood and have a black wood stain and a deep high gloss finish, right now I’m working on the full steal frame " I will post a shot of that when its dun " If you would like to know more, keep a eye on this tread.

    Ha! I bought that exact case for donor parts in my last project (see sig). I used as much of it as you are by the looks of it too. :D

    Looking forward to seeing what you do with this.

    Hi guys
    Sorry its been a wile, I have been having some personal problems in life that have prevented me for doing anything with this case mod (namely a divorce).

    Well I have some good news and some bad news.
    I will start with all the bad.

    The P4 computer I was going to put in this kicked the bucket.

    I am back to my P3 866mhz bit of crap that I have on had as a backup.
    Can not be to hard on it, it’s a good little thing that’s never let me down befor and just keeps going and going.

    I have a pile of parts, Water cooler, lights, wood, metal and bits and peaces that was to go in to this case just sitting here doing nothing.

    I will be scrapping this thread really soon and scrapping the idea of this case.

    Ok so after knowing that you might ask what good news could there be?
    Like ok divorce, computer crapping it self, having to work on such a slow computer just to get on line, not having a good computer to put all the new parts in that I spent good money on, Oh and the really big downer, having to move 300km away form your kids that you love more than life it self only to have to move in to your mum and dads place to get away form your ex.

    What could possibly be good you might ask?

    OK I will give you the good news.

    I went to the Atomic Live 2005 ( the worlds greatest Tech and gaming event ) and who was I lucky to run in to but Bit-Techs very own Geoff Richards (Deputy Editor) and Peter Dickison (Senior Contributor). 2 really grate guys that gave me all the time in the world to have a chat and talk.
    From talking to them and seeing peters new work (the WMD) which looks really really grate in person, they have given me new increment to try and start up a new project again. They are truly grate guys, plus they gave me one of a very very limited posters of peters first work (Orac) I cant remember if it was one of 5 or 10 posters in Australia. Orac whas the case mod that got me in to case mods. So I will thresher this poster for a long time to come. ( Thank you Geoff and Peter if you see this )
    Now what could be better than that you ask? Well
    I have met a really nice woman, very sexy, and is in to computers and computer mods.
    Unlike my ex she is really encouraging and supportive.

    So over all I hope to be back in to this soon and be starting a new mod soon with any luck.
    There are some things a I will have to sort out befor I start but it should not be to long.

    So that’s it from me for now. I home you all have a really cool and safe X-mass and a happy new year.

    Cya in 2006
