I just used a spiral dremel bit and milled the hole to the right size, any unevenness is covered by the flange on the fillport
@ Pie, you can mark out the hole, drill a bunch of 4mm holes around the out-side, then dremel or file out the little bits that are left.
I managed to get 'some' work done on the painting and top of the case in the past few days so here it is. I decided not to use the mesh on the top of the radiator fans, its way to air restrictive
Ahh, my brother! Our nexus-s (nexi?) are pretty different, but your project is really clean, i like it. My current tower is trashy. Looks as complicated as the London underground. ( no offense to any Londeners) Are you going to use the red racks on the build? Could be a lil strange with the blue.
more work got some more work done today, not much but better than none Tell me what you think until next time...
Even more work I got some more work done today, I made a coverplate for the drive bay and worked on the front panel some. You can see the nice shiny paint job in the picture above
The mod is actually pretty close to being done all I need to do is make the mobo cover and finish off the front and some other small details, although im a little disappointed about not getting much support in this mod. but o well its my first one. so everything is going good and the mod should be done soon, hope for some more comments though...
Amazing work, I love you you are making everything fit in together scheme-wise byu covering the bays/front and stuff. I still think you should have done red inside though.
Heres the progress of the case so far, nothing is riveted yet its all just kind of sitting there but you get the idea... Shiny paint
the juxtaposition between the red and blue makes me think of spiderman. its a nice, clean looking case though.
Nice work. I'm doing mine in cherry wood but using some of the same hardware. I have the fillport and radiator you are using but I didn't see your pump. I will be watching your progress as I do mine and posting my pics on a different thread.
Front Got some work on the front, here it is... The fan is actually shiny red although it cant be seen in the pictures. Mobo cover soon to come...
This case is coming out real nice ,looking very clean and i like the mix of black and red ,regarding the front color im a bit undecided i think it would look the best with red color against the black frame araound it ,but then u might want to change the red fan (wich i like very much) to another color because i think the fan wont look god having the same color as the front. By the way an overal god job keep it comming....
Is there going to be a cover for that front wood chipper...er fan? Like the work so far but where are the light whore night shots? all lit up...please more pics of it lit up!!
I am thinking about leaving the front brushed aluminum, it gives it a nice look and I think Ill leave the front fan coverless I think it looks cool as is. but thanks alot for all the input
