    It's not rust. It's paint that looks like rust ;)

    one idea would be to clear coat the keyboard..
    but i guess that'd look wrong according to the
    rough, industrial feel which this case represents ;]

    In case you guys somehow missed it - HE PUT A CLEAR TOPCOAT ON THE MOUSE. [​IMG]

    He would just put the same topcoat on the keyboard too...

    it would look nice if you put the half-life letters on the keys of the keyboard

    substitute greek letters for roman ones? That would be cool, but you would either have to totally distort the greek alphabet if you wanted characters to look similar, or wind up with õ where d should be

    Has anyone said your mouse looks intereting... like intersting in picking it up out a a field after 30 years... the top though looks like a dog took a crap on it... interesting look.

    Good Job overall with the case... keep going... :rock:

    Actually, I didn't know what you meant. I thought you thought it was real rust or someting :hehe:

    Even so, if it's paint it won't come off like rust would.

    Hi guys and thank you very much for feed backs and support :thumb:

    here is the integration of the components; the starting idea to fix a plate on the mobo with spacers was good but proved too complex in a so small case, it would have been good into a big tower I think... it was necessary that I adapt according to the place I had and also according to dimensioned practical thus the mobo is not entirely covered but a great part when same, I left an easy access to dimm ports and area also in the case or one should add pci cards ; the panel is made up for a good part of an aluminum deployed mesh in order to let breath the mobo and graphic card


    here are the components I bought :

    abit nf7 s v2.0 (the first one I ordered was out of stock for a long time...),AMD barton 2500+ and ide coolermaster wires

    [​IMG]

    here is the 9600 xt radeon's fix

    [​IMG]

    and then cutting, drilling ...

    [​IMG]

    and the aluminium mesh

    [​IMG]

    and the rust paintjob with another HL² logo

    see you soon for next update :) :dremel:

    that looks awsome, I was wondering how you'd do the mobo and expansion cards, it is better than I could have imagined.
