    Very nice design! I love how you have made the off-center mounted fans in the front and top look centered by adding the two U-channels.. you can tell that you think things trough and are creative! =D
    Have you tried making designs with a drifferent number of B-shaped tube holders on the outside? I'm thinking that perhaps it would look cleaner with fewer.

    Design change: Tricky.. but I think I like the original design better. With the aquaero those nice strong black U-channels are broken.. in my mind the case looses something. Think you could post one image of the whole case of each design with the same sketchup camera, so it's easier to judge the overall look side by side? =) (With the camera so you can se the front, side and top at the same time.) Perhaps also a shot of each square from the front (with or without the top showing)?

    Cool, that's where I live!! 8D Yay for Umeå! *^_^*

    This is looking mightily prommising! Awesome design and excellent building skills.. love it! I'll be eagerly awaiting more updates! Keep it up! 8D

    Update 9

    Hi all !

    I realy apologize for the long inactivity, now I'm back !!

    @ mnpctech : Thank you very much !!

    @ Macros_the_Black : thanks ! I haven't I decide for the tube holders yet, but you are right ,it would look better with less.
    I'm gonna do those sketches later .

    @ ComputerKing : I'm sorry, I'm gonna try to upload some photos on another website.

    yesterday I orderd the xlr and rca connectors so they should be here next week.

    UPDATE 9

    I started to paint a primer so I could use some bondo to fill holes and scratchs.
    no more screws ?

    I still need to sand a liltle bit more

    [​IMG]

    Then I drilled some holes for the xlr and the water cooling tubes and glued that part to the case :

    [​IMG]

    I cut a hole for the 24pin connector :

    [​IMG]

    then one for the sata cable :

    [​IMG]

    after that, I drilled one of the 120mm hole on the top :

    I attatched the radiator :

    A small probleme came up, the right side isn't high enough ! I'll have to use some bondo :

    [​IMG]

    it's possible that you'll see another update today but I think it will come tomorow.

    comments and questions are welcome as usual !
