    I need a name for this so help me out guys. Anyway, I've already started modding my PC-70 :D

    I'm not going to let you in on what I'm planning, but I will keep you updated of my progress. At the moment I'm making a replacement front face for my Audigy2.

    [​IMG]
    I cut the clips off the back so the faceplate would sit flush on the aluminium 5.25" bay plate

    [​IMG]
    The template sits perfectly

    [​IMG]
    The excess aluminium was cut away from the 5.25" plate

    [​IMG]
    The holes marked out

    [​IMG]
    The holes drilled

    At the moment I'm filing the holes back to the correct shape and size. More pics when I'm finished, which will probably be tomorrow now. I hope to cut a small window for the IR receiver and the "SoundBlaster Audigy2" logo. I will paint some thin perspex black, but mask off an area for the receiver and also the logo. I will then tint the rest of the perspex so when the PC is on, the logo is backlit with a blue LED or two :naughty:

    Pics soon

    Next time do the dremelling first. I'm sure it kills too do all that filinh and then ruin the plate cutting a rectangular hole. you're probably less likely to cause major damage with a hand file than a disk doing thousands of rpms.

    you should just go with "Project Hyooj". It looks like some exotic RPG term or a street fighter move until you pronounce it. :D

    Next time try to do the cutout markings on the inside of the faceplate. Or just use needle files.

    that might help cover up any damages.

    Can't file a 1cm dremel line :)
    I did use needle files, it's not difficult to cut it out or file, I was just being careless :sigh:

    Yay I love it when parcels arrive, pity I don't get to play until after work :miffed:

    The wires connected to my new toy :D

    Can you guess what it is yet?

    Yay my new six channel fan controller :baby:

    [​IMG]
    The LEDs look kinda orange and yellow, but they are actually very nice red/green bi-colour. These fan controllers were reviewed on bit a while ago, they're very good

    [​IMG]
    Oh yea and I also put a vandal resistant switch in place of my power. This means there's a cable preventing the front panel being removed completely but I'll fix this with a quick release connector. I also plan to use the same type of switch for the reset button

    I hope that was sarcasm.

    Infact, I've never seen someone type like that and not used it as an ironic statement.

    Maybe I hang out on the right forums.

    Hehe, probably not the brightest thing to admit but I actually know him and I'm pretty sure (i hope) that he was joking :)
