Project - Black Button (21st December - Retired :()

-> wow, that was a long time between updates.
-> looking good by the way

 

I got bored the other day and dug out some black sticky back plastic and made myself some small window applique

heres a pic



All done with a craft knife and scissors Picture makes it look messed up but it ok in real life

----------------------------------------------------------------------

I also fixed my baybus again after breaking the switches.

 

cool you really should stealth those drives black

 

...or vinyl dye them. either way, it'll look pretty good! Great job so far, I like the AMD and Nvidia appliques.

 

I ran out of paint and im really skint at the moment so only the front plastic bezil is black All the sides and optical drives are still beige at the moment. Don't worry tho they will be black eventually

 

From what I can see in the pictures the paint work is good, and thats good for your first project.

 

I was very pleased at the way the paintwork turned out on the front bezil for my first attempt at spraying Dad used to spray cars all day long so it must be in my gene's lol. Bezil could do with another coat though and the rest really needs doing when i get some money

 

Nothing origional but i got bored and found an led Fair enough i only did the numlock but that will have to do till next time i head to maplin



Blue are far too expensive so red will do And blues overdone me thinks.





Also got rid of that floppy drive just need to find a blanking plate now.





Hid all the wires nicely away up their.





Overall wiring shot





Thumbscrews

 

Its a sad day Unfortunately the old lady has gone into retirement and has been traded in for a new model heres some pics of her in her naked state...





Heres her replacement...



Don't exactley know what to do it

 

Dude now you have it easy, you can mod the hell out of that case now since you don't have a system in it, and then when done you can put the parts in it.

 

I agree, mod it good!
if you aint gona use it you can always sell it afterwards
