[Project] Silverstone TJ07 @ EnergyTeam

[EnergyTeam]

The design of this project aims to create a case simple and attractive.
This project will feature several mods such as the front, the interior, the inverted ATX motherboard, top, among others.

The box will be focused for watercolling was not she one TJ07.


Photos of the original case:

I don't like to see the bays in this case so...... OUT! ehehe

The design of the new motherboard backplate (paint rules ehehe)
The idea was to create a backplate more simple (without those horrible air vents) but I didn't wanted to make a case without any airflow, so this design came up!

Starting the new backplate:

I don't like to see this Fan's in the backplate, but as I mentioned earlier I don't want the case without any airflow. So after seeing another project this idea came up.

Modifying the Fan's:

Ater modifying the Fan and some sanding here is the result!

Hi guys, today im bringing you some work on the midplate and our side window.

So, on the midplate i had to cut some inches on the corners to make it fit on perfection.
Looks great, right?
http://s23.postimg.org/6oiww0upn/DSC_9111.jpg

Here what i had to do was checking the right place to assemble the new rail. :)
http://s23.postimg.org/4sw4kv5vf/DSC_9114.jpg

Here's the result with the rails and motherboard tray, as you can see the midplate is at the edge of the fun holes from the back.
Perfect!:cool:

http://s23.postimg.org/nt07yp2m3/DSC_9121.jpg http://s23.postimg.org/4zef1p4e3/DSC_9122.jpg

Ok, so, here we have our side window ready to cut.
As you can see i did a second line to a purpose, which you can see in the next images. :rolleyes:
http://s23.postimg.org/efzmukyuz/DSC_9127.jpg

So finally we have it cutted, but it's not completly finished yet.
Still have some sanding work to do, to put it perfect.
http://s23.postimg.org/5sr0ubaez/DSC_9128.jpg

Ok, now im showing you the purpose i was talking about this baby. :D
As you can see the midplate is also on the edge with the window, looks marvelous right?

Thanks man!


After some time, the side panel is sanded and ready for the paint job.
http://s10.postimg.org/9jw1qmdqh/IMGa_20151116_171043_2.jpg

Unfortunately I don't have the tools to make what I want in the side window, so I had appeal to a store. Here is the result.
http://s10.postimg.org/r63wvelu1/DSC_9138.jpg


Testing the side panel to see if it fit's properly. More translucent is impossible! Without the light reflection is almost impossible to see it :)

The mold to the new interior.

Preparing the acrilic panel to be cutted.

It fit's like a glove ehehe. :p
http://s10.postimg.org/uynfb51c9/DSC_9156.jpg


When we don't have the tools we must improvise.
http://s10.postimg.org/e38ac4vm1/DSC_9159.jpg


It's almost perfect, just need some adjustments!

Common guys I'm praying for some comments ehehe

Also made 1 back rail for 240 radiator.
Just a short note if you don't want to use radiators on this rails you can use the fans they will fit also.
Also cutted the rails in the radiator form to improove the performance of the fans, so they dont get obstructed to send the air out.

Now im showing you a very cheap home made kit which cross my mind to draw with a dremel.
http://s14.postimg.org/p6od5cbgx/DSC_9212.jpg
http://s14.postimg.org/pkpp4xvkh/DSC_9215.jpg
http://s14.postimg.org/971481q1d/DSC_9214.jpg

To adjust at the size you need you have a couple of options, using screws or just adding more fans on the first one, and you are ready to go.

So let's make use of the new tool we have and make our awesome front panel we've been delaying for the final things to do.

Starting with a hand draw.

It's a lot of work and it makes it so much worth it in the end after the final result in the next phases to come.
