    We went to the top, which has been re-lasted a few hours until everything nice and smooth.

    Awesome skills there, really like seeing these mods where folks are chopping and hacking at things and not just assembling a list of parts. :thumb:

    So, the last few days it went on again.
    First I had the side panels yet or gluing, because the adhesive have I used at all times is not recommended. The holding quasi 0.: nono:

    [​IMG]

    [​IMG]

    [​IMG]

    Stay away from the stuff.

    [​IMG]

    Now I glued it with Liqui Moli window adhesive.

    [​IMG]

    [​IMG]

    Then again, a big thank you to Aquatuning for the pump with Terms and LED strip.
    The I-ordered again, as it did not work with the other Terms and pump so.

    [​IMG]

    To the pump to screw I had to cut a few screws but only once.

    [​IMG]

    Then I was able to unscrew the Plexi HDD bracket already.

    [​IMG]

    [​IMG]

    Since the cage already was broken, he has also still the same one layer black lacquer get to cover the raw edges.

    [​IMG]

    Then it was turn to the pipes.
    2 pieces I have only once made into garbage until I had it somewhat out :)

    [​IMG]

    One tube was then done, as I had for the day then only times the snout fully :)

    [​IMG]

    The next day we went back with the remaining tubes on.

    [​IMG]

    So, that was it for now.
    Next, the lighting is off.

    Thanks Guys.

    Yesterday I cut everything on the front of here that could impede the light. Then I caught the Flexlights on the sides.
    Unfortunately, the soldering was not so slight of hand. In the morning everything was OK, the afternoon I wanted to solder, but as strangely went the soldering iron is no longer correct.
    It has then put out the the tip was broken, did not at all since the resistance there is. :(

    [​IMG]

    At the Flexlights I then soldered plug-in couplings.

    [​IMG]

    Front on the radiator I have placed the controller.

    [​IMG]

    At this the counterparts came to the clutches.

    [​IMG]

    Here we see again beautifully what has been cut away.

    [​IMG]

    In Top I have side cut-outs made in which I was able to clamp the flex Light.

    [​IMG]

    [​IMG]

    Then it went to the laying of cables.
    Forgot to do, unfortunately, a picture of the finished state. That's tomorrow.

    [​IMG]

    The connecting cable for the HDDs, pump and Lighting the connection for the floppy disk drive still had to give way.

    [​IMG]

    [​IMG]

    [​IMG]

    [​IMG]

    After that I then assembled and tested everything.
    Are more or less already Pre Final Pics.

    Now I still have a problem.
    I wanted to fill the water cooling. The pump makes noise, but it is not pumped. At what this might be?

    That is a beautiful case. It is even more amazing knowing that you cut the front and top grills by hand.
