Hey my name is Mads R, and im 15 years old. Im comming for a little country called Denmark.
This is my first serious project, but i hope it is going to be cool.

I got the idea to the case in a woodwork lesson i had.. and i started immediately.

In the beginnign the hardware inside the case, isent that great, but that will change along the road.
Actruly i dont have alot of money , but i can assure you that it will be great.

The PC is going to be me main computer, cuz right now I only use my laptop.. not great.

Here is some pictures.. [Remember im not done :P it needs some paint an a little bit of modding]


Before i started on the case i paintet the PSU:

Looks like it's going to be a great case.
May I ask what kind of drill bit that is? I need something to make my fan holes and that looks perfect.

Hi guys,
its update time .. Here is the real deal:P


First i cutted a pice of paper out, and painted it orange like the case: (Diden´t want that AC Ryan logo :D)
http://www12.asphost4free.com/zwiks/3_mod_walk/PIC00451_Wood.JPG

Using some tape:
http://www12.asphost4free.com/zwiks/3_mod_walk/PIC00473_Wood.JPG

And painting:
http://www12.asphost4free.com/zwiks/3_mod_walk/PIC00478_Wood.JPG

Have to paint this Orange like the case:
http://www12.asphost4free.com/zwiks/3_mod_walk/PIC00481_Wood.JPG

Have to scrape the paint left overs:
http://www12.asphost4free.com/zwiks/3_mod_walk/PIC00485_Wood.JPG

Have to Cut off the red area:
http://www12.asphost4free.com/zwiks/3_mod_walk/PIC00491_Wood.JPG

Now its done, and its a little bit wet.. but you get the idea:
http://www12.asphost4free.com/zwiks/3_mod_walk/PIC00498_Wood.JPG

Here i used a nut, cuz i fittet perfectly, and it maked the "bay-tower" more stable..: (I used that metal-putty i just recived today, to make it fit together)
http://www12.asphost4free.com/zwiks/3_mod_walk/PIC00501_Wood.JPG

Here i maked a "angle-thing" .. also to make the case more stable:
http://www12.asphost4free.com/zwiks/3_mod_walk/PIC00506_Wood.JPG

And one more:
http://www12.asphost4free.com/zwiks/3_mod_walk/PIC00507_Wood.JPG

Here is the "wood-frame," without the "metal-frame"..: [The naked-wood needs to be black]
http://www12.asphost4free.com/zwiks/3_mod_walk/PIC00510_Wood.JPG

Here is the "metal-frame," without the "wood-frame"..: [It needs a paint-job very bad, I know it] [And some vacum-cleaning and so on]
http://www12.asphost4free.com/zwiks/3_mod_walk/PIC00513_Wood.JPG

More metal, which also needs a paint-job very bad, I know it
http://www12.asphost4free.com/zwiks/3_mod_walk/PIC00517_Wood.JPG

Here is a sketch i quickly made.. i shows the colo... arh forget it you know what it shows when you see it :D:D:D
http://www12.asphost4free.com/zwiks/3_mod_walk/PIC00520_Wood_Color.jpg

Here is after the painting .. (ist at the drying-fase)
http://www12.asphost4free.com/zwiks/3_mod_walk/PIC00526_Wood.JPG

http://www12.asphost4free.com/zwiks/3_mod_walk/PIC00536_Wood.JPG

Yesterday I also painted the disc-drive, here is how it looks like:
http://www12.asphost4free.com/zwiks/3_mod_walk/PIC00543_Wood.JPG

Yesterday I also painted the disc-drive, here is how it looks like now:
http://www12.asphost4free.com/zwiks/3_mod_walk/PIC00544_Wood.JPG

http://www12.asphost4free.com/zwiks/3_mod_walk/PIC00548_Wood.JPG

Man, Woody's giving me a woody!

Awesome work - love that orange! Contrasts well with the blue. The "organic" shape of the window sets it off nicely as well, very unique.
