I got my inspiration from this mod from Gnomes Orac3. Basically what this is, is a case made completely out of perspex with red highlights. Im calling it Apollo, as he was the Greek god of the sun, and purity. purity, perspex.... well, you get it. i wont be able to start until monday, as all the perspex suppliers in brisbane are closed on the weekend. All the drive bays are going to be hidden in the perspex, and nothing will be left left exposed on the front. The front will house my dvdrw and cdrom drivers, fanbus, custom power button, fan, and usb ports. Updates soon im quite excited about this mod, to get me through the school holidays. 2 weeks of fun Perspex, and computer rice. oooo the lights, purty Drive cages assembled and glued: tomorrow i hope to start and finish the front and back panels. with drive bays, fan holes, hole for psu, mobo and pci slots. Update!!!!!!! Drive cages assembled, glued, and glued on to top sheet: First panel glued Second panel Glued Front Glued: Top Glued: Top Glued 2: Cheers!
UPDATE 2!!!! Insides in: Up and standing: New and Old: Running for the first time: Room Lights on: Room lights on 2: Mobo: Front: installed in its hole: front, lights on: Front lights off: Front, Cold Cathode off: tidied up all the cables, much cleaner now. modded my dvd drive: Photobucket Album for those interested: http://photobucket.com/albums/a256/modafroman/Project Apollo/ My case mod may not be as tidy as defyants mods, or be as clean as Orac3, but im impressed with what i could do, and i definately have no regrets in doing this mod. only thing that could have been better is the cd drive holes could have been neater, and the fact that the top cd drive wont open
