Scratch Build – In Progress Project: Honeycomb - Completed - CustomPC Featured Mod Nov 2012

Yes but I'm in the USA and shipping is hella expensive. I asked for him to sponsor me but got no response -.-

 

That build really inspired mine.

 

Small update.

I drilled the HDD holders to allow 4 more drives per side.


Now I need to figure out how to get more air flow. I'm thinking of cutting out a chunk of the side of these and maybe a slit between the 2 holes but I'm not sure yet. I play with it a bit this weekend.

Quick photo of the case.


Cheers till next time!

 

just read the hole log mate . i must say it's such a smart build
keep up the good work

 

I just love the way this thing looks, the colours, everything. This really is my kind of build...Top modding dude.

 

Thanks guys! Hopefully when the last few pieces fall into place it will look even better.

 

Anyone know where Shane went? His website is down too.

 

Sorry man. I got your package about 2 weeks ago. I have been traveling for work for the past few months and I am now finally on vacation. My next update will be the end of this month or early July.

 

Ah cool, everything look ok?

 

Beautiful design and execution. Great work modding I just sat and read the whole log and Learned a lot. I look forward to seeing you finish this build.

 

Ya everything looks great! I'm gonna PM you to get one more 120mm red grill.

Glad you learned something. Gonna finish this up ASAP.


So its been awhile. I was waiting a long time to get plexi parts in and I had to travel for work for several months. Now I'm back and ready to finish this thing up.

First up is the plexi. I got my midplate back and the honeycomb fan grill for the PSU.



The grill was a bit smaller than the hole so I had to use some hot glue to get it to stay.

I spent the money and got some Mayhems Pastel Gigabyte Orange Coolant. It looks pretty freaking good. Now, I do wish it was a bit darker but it only looks light in direct light.


Here you can see how the cables and tubing are routed through the midplate.



Here are just a whole bunch of photos I took. The blocks look amazing. I'll take final pictures in light and dark.























Even the GPU block looks great.


Expect final pictures soon.

Cheers till then,

Fuga

This is totally epic, I just love it.. well done on a top build.

 

Looking so nice man, well done on a top build!!

 

Amazing build man and congratulations on the feature!
Love the attention to detail with this build... and that colour

 

Nice build, but the tubing on the first res is kinked bro!

 

Orange juice as coolant? Just kidding, nice work, mate

There's actually just one thing I'd change: the backplate of the mobo could be black or orange (just to please that little perfectionist inside of me )

gratz on feature mod!

 

Thanks!

Thanks

Thanks

Its the drain port so it does not matter.

Thanks

 

Turned out really nice Fuga.
