Scratch Build – In Progress [Project] Modularis Evolution... updated alot!!! nearing completion!

That's better already, but I would like something like this better:



This would make the mounting sheets unnecessary, and would make it all look a lot cleaner

 

I would do that but i do like it the way it is now so i think ill stick with it as it is.

Thanks anyways

Josh

 

OH god ive been relixed!!!

And on with the update

well here is my tubing


And the first section cut long enough with the p4 connector through


I then cut the holes in the front of the psu housing


and then all the holes i will need in the back plate including watercooling holes


and here is the first hose through the p4 connector (it is not secured yet as i have to wait for the case to be painted before i can secure it)


Then i cut more hose there is the p4 connector one, the one for the atx cable and one for a dual molex that will then plug into 2 extensions that will go from the mobo housing to the rad and pump housing as power for the fans and pump


I then cut one for the sata power cable for my dvd drive


front of the psu so far


and here is an image from the back to show you whats going on so far


Crazy huh

I have worked out i need about 5 more meters of tubing that i will have to wait untill the end of the month to get as i am out of money

And thats it for today as always comments

Josh

 

I see some real hose management opportunities here. Grab the plexi and make hose keepers like the billet alum. spark plug wire keepers on the show car engines. That's a LOT of hoses dude.

 

Lol yer it is

and hmmmm i will try that out and see if i like it

Josh

 

Or you could make the bit that holds your cd up one solid-single-layered-part, drill holes in it, and run the hoses through that.

 

Nah im gunna leave the dvd housing as it is now

Josh

 

I gotta say this is looking amazing, as those hoses go in
it starts to look more organic, alive even.

 

It's just a beast personally I'd have had the tubes going in the sides and tops of things, but each to their own, it still looks awesome

Are you threading the tubing through any of that green wire tubing reinforcement stuff by any chance? (just to keep the colour scheme)

 

Thanks

Yer the reason i dont have the wiring going in the top is becase of the window there is no room and the sides there isnt room because of the supports and i may add green coil springs i dont know yet

Josh

 

Well ive got more tubing and some 18awg wire on the way to me so there is now no need to worry about making the cables thinner

Josh

 

Looks great - I'd got to say.
But.. there's going to be one hell of a tube-mess to connect all these bits

I'd vote for cheapskates suggestion, would really be a great idea

 

Im looking at making some sort of tube holder to tame the beast but if it doesnt work out i dont mind the organic look

Josh

 

I wonder what the size is and the weight in the end.
It starts to look a bit like a spacestation to be honoust.

/Starts following this thread...

 

Lol thanks and size will stay the same it is roughly 90x50x55cm and itll be heavy

Josh

 

Update time

First the wire and tubing that arrived on saturday



The tubing for the molex for the hdds


All the sata tubing done aswell 2 from the hdd housing and 1 from the dvd housing both to the mobo housing.


and the pci e power tubing


and from the back


the starting of the tubing tamer


polished


so good that you can see all the way through perfectly


marked out for holes


and one of the holes cut


Thats it so far (more tomorrow)

Josh

 

Awesome, Josh. Personally, I like the tubing like it is.

 

So do i but if this makes it look better then so be it

i wont make it permanent untill i have decided if i want it as it is or with the tamer (but i do love the 1cm thick acrylic)

Whichever i decide it will look better with green coilsprings and paint

Josh

 

Nice all the tube and a serious cable management

 

Thanks mate btw loving your project

Josh
