Case Mod - In Progress Rocklander

This image for some reason is just "Right" for me. No reason other than I like it.



Excellent work.

Jes, you can see the back





For a better diffusion i cut the heads of the LED.



The effect:


It was no secret ...

 

Before the bonding comes the grinder.


The glue:


Every clamp matters

 

Thanks for the pics!
Lotsa clamps! Why didn't you use some blocks to help your clamps spread the pressure?

 

Because that would have defeated the purpose of having so many clamps?

 

No special reason. Only my style!


UPDATE!

Almost complete.


The back. There are surely better solutions. But: Only the result matters!


For the conection I use some splits.


These are a few first impression of the effect:

 

Wow!

 

arnt u just a smarty then
nerr

looks insane! jealous once again

 

Jeez. Subbed - great build!

 

Prepare the painting:




The parts with the base coat


The finishing coat : "Candy Gold" From cosmic-color <- LINK

 

very cool paint work

 

To protect the cable vom the coolin system, I use a 1/2" TFC hose.
They are gigantic, but for the conector still to small


Therefore: A small cut..


... and it will work.


To match the cabel-hose I use the same size hose to protect the 11mm hoses.


Fore the Sidepanals of the cooling systems I need some Aluminium.
After the triming ...



...comes the glue...


...and the clamps.



An other thing ist the inner covering. Only white is to boring.
For that reason: A sketch on the plexi


Than some labels..


...and after some "Double D" (Drill & Dremel) it looks like:


After more Dremel...


...and some work with different files


Another part for the inner covering:


At the Modding Masters 2009 in Leipzig:

What a transformation! Looking really good, great idea using WC tubing to house the fan cable.

 

Interesting.. though I bet that those metal legs are gonna wreak havoc with vibration from moving parts in the case

 

very cool nice logo mate

 

until now I didn't notice anything unusual.


For a nice cable-arrangement I have to work on the cardreader


First: demount the thing


A little cut with the Dremel...


With a claen edge I look for a matching peace of plexi


And so It looks like if the Dremel is faster than your thumb

/\ oh thats a good one! nail detail and all! im impressed!

 

The rough shape are done


Matched to the cage...


...and made some ports for the cables.


Done


later more

 

Nice detail on the card reader! Poor Thumb! Modding wreaks havoc on my fingers, too.

 

Ah who needs a thumb when you got two right?
