    Hi!
    I'am from Portugal and i will show what a did with my sff.
    If exist errors of english in the thread, the guilt it's of the translator :D :D
    The ideia is to put watercooling inside the case, and make some modifications.
    A review, to see the box from the beginning :
    http://www.digit-life.com/articles2/abit-digidice/index.html

    In the beginning it was thus, with that one cut made for a radiator 2*80
    Later i see ones mods in the Internet that had made me to change project, and begin to make the cuts on the top and on the sides

    This was the case for the 51/2 drives. I cut to inside have more space in the box.

    [​IMG]
    The grate of 120 of aquacomputer that I used to fix the radiator of 120 in the box. I cut bars for the airflow either bigger.
    [​IMG]
    This was my computer on the moment. :blush:
    [​IMG]
    The front of the box painted
    [​IMG]
    The waterblock painted
    [​IMG]
    The grate finished, without the bars
    [​IMG]
    One side of the box have one puncture, therefore I had of covering with cold weld.
    [​IMG]
    The cage 51/2 folded
    [​IMG]
    The front with the buttons.
    [​IMG]
    The original acrilic was striped , therefore I had to make a acrilic the measure and necklace with superglue.
    [​IMG]
    As it goes to be
    [​IMG]
    how to make a retention for the block in acrilic. I have used the retention of cuplex evo to to serve of mold.
