Project: Woody by zwiks
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.

Before i started on the case i paintet the PSU:

Re: Woody by zwiks
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.

Using some tape:
And painting:
Have to paint this Orange like the case:
Have to scrape the paint left overs:
Scrape this off:
Have to fix/paint [Black] this:
Have to Cut off the red area:
Now its done, and its a little bit wet.. but you get the idea:
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)
Here i maked a "angle-thing" .. also to make the case more stable:
And one more:
Here is the "wood-frame," without the "metal-frame"..: [The naked-wood needs to be black]
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]
More metal, which also needs a paint-job very bad, I know it
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
Here is after the painting .. (ist at the drying-fase)
Here is what it looks like:
And one more:
Ready for the paint-job:
Yesterday I also painted the disc-drive, here is how it looks like:
Yesterday I also painted the disc-drive, here is how it looks like now:
