My First Mod Project

[Ouch!]

I have been planning this project for a while now and I finally won my new 'case' on ebay the other day.
It's big enough for a m-ATX motherboard and regular PSU.
I want to make it into a rig for LAN partie and I want it to look military and technological.

The idea is for the front panel to remain largely as it is now and I'll stealth a slot loading DVD-ROM into the side.
I will fill the oscilloscope screen with either a small lcd unit or a led fan.

I plan to use the volt meter to show fan speed or HDD activity.
I want a blow hole on top and some light to shine underneath the case.

I still don't have a name for the project I want something military and menacing...possibly Area 51 or something.

Any suggestions or advice from anybody would be gratefully received.


Heres the case....

Those pics are really small. I can barely make out the detail-although they look pretty sweet, despite their tiny size.

I second that. :p

[Ouch!]

I received my oscilloscope yesterday and spent the whole day stripping it down and removing all the interior components. There were lots of old vacuum tube type valves, which I hope to incorporate back into the thing in a small way. I'll post more pictures later.

Also, after agonising for weeks over what this project is going to be called, I went out for a curry with my friend Paul last night. I explained my idea and instantly, he came up with the name. "The Interocitor"

If you need to know what an interocitor is, you need to watch the 1954 sci-fi film "This Island Earth".

Cheers

Ouch!
