Scratch Build – In Progress ZdMods - Project pǝʇɹǝʌuı - Final Pics! (post #273)

looks amazing ... strange thing is, i find my eyes drawn to the cases feet - the way you've done them is fantastic. (and i don't normally have a thing for feet LOL)

 

I like this a lot. I watch.

Thanks And yep I'm making a custom case for the psu:

I'm not sure if I should be happy or worry about you liking my feet thanks!

 

This looks great, i love how clean and symmetrical the rads look, doesn't happen very often. +sub

 

Thanks wilkinson

Did a bit more work on the psu, mounted it on the bottom panel of the case and I've made the holes for the connectors in the top of the psu:




(The long screws on top will ofcourse be cut to lenght.)

 

this going to be a very special build, me like!

 

I got to agree with kelmannen. Very special, and it looks darn good!

 

Thanks guys

Dispite of the hectic last couple of days (I became a daddy yesterday!!) I did manage to find some modding time. I've evened out all of the 'corners' of the frame. The frame, the plexi strips and the aluminum panels now all are the same size. I still need to do some small corrections with a small file, but it looks quite nice already:


I've also countersunk the screws on the left side of the case, looks alot cleaner this way:




Up next is finishing the PSU housing and placing the pump

 

I've cut the hole for the pump/reservoir:

 

PSU mod is shweet. favorite part of the build so far.

 

Thanks A80

I've finished the 2nd pass-through to the top of the case and connected some of the parts to check if everything lines up correctly:

 

what tools are you using to do this? its all so clean, great work

 

Thank you Dirky!

For the aluminium and plexi I just use basic tools:



A couple of big files to get rid of the big chunks, smaller files for the details, sandpaper to smooth the edges. Most important is alot of patience

 

This looks fantastic.
I love the way you used the fittings... it gives more of a industrial look to the build

 

great work so far. what are your plans for lighting?

 

Haven't had much time to mod lately, but I found some time to get this done:

I've countersunk the screws in both sides now, which gives the whole case a much sleeker look. I've also added some ledstrips in the top part of the case. For the lightning I've ordered a RGB Led Controller with remote control.

 

Case looks sweet and congratulations on the +1 earlier! (I hope you get more sleep then I get!)

 

subbed. i absolutely love what you did with the acrylic.
