Scratch Build – In Progress Silent Blue CaseCon (18 July Update)

Hi Folks,
today i post my new Worklog, well new..... it started 11.8 so its nearly new.

It will be a Casecon made of Alu (3mm thick to be precise) with some blue accents.

Before i started, i made a Sketchup drawing (took my around 24h to finish) which is my biggest and most accurate work with sketchup til now. But im not gonna show it to you, at first. I will post only small pieces with the parts im working at at the moment.

Phu... lots of describtion

Now lets start with the first piece.















After that i continued with this two little cuties

































Phew... thats it for today. I hope its not too much, but i even let a few pics out. This is whyx i said 56k warning, right?

Well one thing, the pictures are not in the right order judging from the date. I pit the into groups so its easier to read.

The last thing i worked on was actually the "sik" Letters.

Im looking forward to your comments.

More to come....

 

Normally I h8 blue as an accent but here it looks pretty good. Go cheesecake

 

whoa! thats awsome there! how did you get the blue inside of the supports? and how much were those things!?!?

great mod, ill be wtaching!

 

Thanks.

I have some pices of how i made them, didnt included them into the first post( thougt it would be too much). But here they are for you








The Supports were originally a 10mm x 10mm x 1000mm alu bar.

Here you can see my first "prototype"

 

ah.

i can tell this isn't your first mod

 

Woha you are right

This were my previous ones

 

isn't this a filter that U used orund a air intake? http://www.sklep.audiolite.pl/index.php?option=com_phpshop&page=shop.browse&manufacturer_id=45 (sorry folks but it's polish site)
It's going to be very nice mod! i'm watchin'

 

Thats just some blue acrylic. I used two different holesaws and so i got it.

I hope thats what u meaned?

 

ohh i didn't see edges of acrylic sorry. First thing that went trough my head was foil filter <stupid me >

 

Wow, this looks really cool. Can't wait to see what the whole case is going to look like.

Update 22 Aug.

@Cyberbob: The Alu is 3mm thick.

Thanks for your nice comments. Therefor i have a new update for you.
I continued working on the right side panel. I cut the plexi for the small window. Sorry i have only one pic of the progress, then was the cam empty.

Well here is the pic:



And the Result:



Looks ok at first sight, but when you look closer...



You can see that one edge broke. And thats when i was so close to finishing it
Well cant help it, i had to redo it. But the second try wasnt better, it broke even earlier. When i wanted to drill the holes for my jigsaw an edge broke too.

Then with the third try it worked, but now im out of acrylic . But fortunately i ordered already some new, which should arrive shortly.

Well here is the result:





And another thing happened today. I got a parcel with my new Motherboard. It it a micro-ATX Board which is kindly provided by Foxconn. It is the 45CM-S.

Thats it for today.

 

WOW! OMG DAM. This is crazy amazing case! WOWOWO I love it too much. This is what I'm talking about. Well done. Nice Job.

good luck and Update Please!

 

Thanks man and heres your Update though its only a small one.

Today i worked on the Mainboardplate. As you can see its far too big.



So i had to cut it down to a more suiting size. I marked roghly where i had to cut and the fun started ^^









No it fits perfect in the case, exactly what i had in mind.

See you next time.

 

WOOT very small mobo well done buddy Well done, I can't wait to see it done, Amazing. good job.

Good luck buddy.
