Hello all! I am a modder based in India.. this is the first paid gig that i got, hope you enjoy the log as much as i enjoyed the work! To do: Cut out stock side panel and make a window with 3 fans in it. 3D this is not my case. my first paid job stock... 1.5hr update removed mesh. was easy and tool free. just bend the tabs out, and push it out. then masked it up front back then drew out the outline to be cut. started cutting. first pass with the wheel after final pass, one side cut. three more and curves still left. first curve done, 3 more to go i could only do the big curves with the dremel, for the small curves i just cut it down across the curve and then filed my way down to perfect. this is what the screw looks like after painting. only did the head. edges cleaned and prepped for paint, and painted with high gloss enamel black, whole thing left to dry focus on the cut out, its right side up worked from 4pm till 11 non stop. im realllly tired time for some phood and a well deserved sleep! other intermidiate/extra pics imgur: the simple image sharer http://i.imgur.com/GXtJ4sp.jpg http://i.imgur.com/ms5ILWk.jpg http://i.imgur.com/QcTx1eU.jpg http://i.imgur.com/sdyo2ee.jpg took off the masking today morning, paint was okay, but the inner side had burrs and i wasnt satisfied with the top left corner, so i filed the whole thing again. and used a card to take off the burrs and paint edges. time for another lick of paint with a sponge. unmasked. edges dont look good Final finishing of the edges. defined the top left corner a bit better. after filing gave it a lick of paint with a sponge and wet rag. took an hr for this, i wanted it to be perfect. left it to dry, while i work on the acrylic. Jul 8, 2013 marked off the acrylic cutting away cutting done and all filed and smoothed out. Jul 8, 2013, pre holes drilled with smaller bit holes enlarged. acrylic positioned with the sidepanel, and taped to transfer the bolt hole positions to the sidepanel holes drilled in steel sidepanel and finished off. before finishing after finishing time to mate the two together and it fits thats it for now. Jul 9, 2013, 02:31 AM its 2"30am here and just finished the final touches on the physical aspects. only paining and sizing the bolts is left. working since 4pm. my hands are sore but worth it rough cutting the fan holes rough finishing the holes with a file finished, and the sharp edges smoothed and rounded with 320p filepaper ruler thing. test fitting with the fan that'll be used unwrapping the protective film and putting it all together. very clear stuff went on a vacation after this When i returned! Finished the final touches on this mod first painted all the nuts and bolts black i used the oven to make them dry faster XD 10mins at 150C does the trick. put everything together, it fits and looks nice. glad i painted it black all taped up for transport. will add styrofoam boards to absorb some shocks on the acrylic. or ill just take a taxi to deliver it :s final pictures:- facebook page: www.facebook.com/kustompcmawds
