Case Mod - In Progress LiLi Tower......final pictures

wow very nice build very cleverly set up as well

 

Beautiful build, some lovely lighting effects from the el cable. Hope it's good quality stuff as it can fade quite fast if not.

Really love the picture packed updates, clearly not a trickle update sort of build!

 

Looks really great man!

 

Hi Y'all on this very sunny day (in the netherlands)
Just one small addition to the previous update.

I was hoping my sleeve for the McMod was coming in this weekend, but no.
So cleaned the BBQ after one year of standing still.
In about an hour I'm gonna put half a cow on it, and the feast can begin. In the meantime,
I was still brainstorming about the LiLi tower. I just miss something ........
I know...........the top.
With the last aluminum i have, made some nice pieces.

Can can afford to mess it up because the plates are EOL over here
The two plates measured and marked, holes made for the jigsaw


After some cutting and filing work got everything nice and straight.



And the other panel, slightly different. This for the line around to continue



Still need to drill the holes and the countersunk the bolts.



Now, there's nothing more to do with the outside appearance of the tower (I think)
The inside can still use some light, so tonight's gonna play with loose LEDs and LED strips

And I'm thinking hard to put a blue color in the water.
Think it is very nice effect. I've Looked for Dye Mayhem Deep Blue,
I think one of the better color additives. But nowhere in the Netherlands to obtain.
Belgium either, and I am just told that the dye is EOL.
Now I have no experience with Feser Feser Active UV dye or blue dye active clear / blue entries,
so if anyone has used it already once, please let me know!

Grtzzz.

 

100% Tasty!

 

This looks great, can't wait to see more!

 

This build is awesome! Love love love it! You've changed to many things along the way, it shows a real commitment to perfection.

 

great job men, geiles arbeit, de locura este trabajo, very nice

 

Thnx you guys, motm nomination is coming at a perfect moment
gives me a reason to complete this build finally

 

Update!!!

Today I've got my blue dye so I can finally show you some pictures of the case closed, and especially for the Motm nomination this update

Feser View UV Dye



It was transparant



Add a little bit of dye



Some more



Add about 3 ml



Power up the pump



And everything turned blue







One more to go



Some more





And everything turned blue









It's now the some blue color as the illuminated glo string in the middle



Other side





So I can finally close the LiLi



The upper right part





The lower right part





And the whole right side





The back with the Coolermaster turbine







Closed the left side













And from above





It's a lot of blue, but I hope you like it
Just need to do some more cable manegement and put some nice lights in it
So to be continued

Grtzzz.

 

Very cool build, but how hard is it if say, you have to change the ram, video card, or worse, the motherboard?

I just can't stop thinking, that if you upgrade or something goes wrong, this will be a nightmare.

 

Looking really good, that blue dye is a nice colour as well. Nice one on 2 MOTM's in a row.

 

Amazing well done kier!

 

Your absolutely right, It's my wurst nightmare

Thanks, Hopefully this is gonna be the next motm, has been a lot of work

Thnx

 

looks fantastic so far, can't wait to see it all lit up .

 

The blue's frickin' awesome. It provides a cool style to the dark colors.

 

Almost done with the lightning, This weekend there gonna be pics of it

 

Hee Kier - Were do u get the time for building all those rigs.
U builded the Lightning McMod so I know u have a son. If got 2 boys and they are taking up all of my time (and i love it) but building mods is a timeconsuming hobby!! so my builds a gonna take a little bit longer than yours.

Looks Fantastic BTW but we told u on Tweakers.nl also!!! keep up the good work, M8.

 

Thnx mate,
Dont know where I get the time from lol
I do all my work in the evening when my kid is in bed, and in the weekend
And I have a wife that support me all the way (very important)

I dont like to do things twice, so better to meassure things 3 or 4 times before cutting
most of the time everything works out fine, so that saves time
Lately it's a bit of extreme, two or more projects at once
After this projects it will be quieter (unfortunately) I think due to lack of hardware

But I will get over it too, and keep on modding

 

Almost done with the lightning, here some preview pictures, but...............more to come
I used white SMD led strips













Need to make one flatcable for the aquaero, then LiLi Tower is finished
