I was Taking Off The Top part of the case,It was Kinda Super hard to drill out those big rivets,and it dented my case abit :shock: ,sigh i will use some paty to cover up 6 holes,and im not going to use Rivets any more,give me a hard time,i will use Screws ,which is easier for next time and future. :)

Man, your acrylic work is really cool. Makes me wish I had the money (and weather, **** man, it's been raining too much to do anything other than basic metal/dremel work in the garage) to be able to play around with acrylics and get good at them.

The case looks awesome, I love the contrast of the orange to the black, looks nice.

Reading all this makes me really want to go work on my mod... I think I might do some filing after I clean off my workbench and surrounding areas.. I have the remains of a computer case that I used for it's mounts all over my workbench and the floor, not to mention the books on my bench (none of which are the modding bible) and all the dust from the dremel disks and metal before =/


But yeah, looks great! Keep up the wonderful job.

@ Omega

well maybe i treat it to harshly and broke it since i was rushing like mad

:) today went to a hardware shop
and I got myself U shaped Alu 3 metre costs me RM 27

http://img182.imageshack.us/img182/7309/cimg4835ig5.jpg

was thinking and found out maybe i could use this for my front panel

http://img409.imageshack.us/img409/1296/cimg4837hw9.jpg

did a test ,added the sunbeam fan controller just to alignment the two U alu's

sherren
01-07-2007, 10:38 AM
thanks, wish i would have a jigsaw much more easier for straight cuts,
so far i left the front panel, gotta find a way to mount that two alu's , my idea was using L bracket. The front reminds me of the CM Stacker:rolleyes:

sherren
01-07-2007, 01:42 PM
ok i just found out that ,those lian li slot covers can be bought, i might wanna get 9 pcs of Black , + the front panel side's are silver, so it be matching black and silver,
at the 1st place i was thinking to use arcylic as the bezel's , it was troublesome when i think about it,since the lian li slot covers ur able to screw.

:D :thumbs:
