does any one know the site to purchase this case

Thanks dude. Most of the time to all of the time modders will post their system specs in the first couple posts of their worklog. In my case I am hacking up a Lian-Li 1200B and you can buy it here,... http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16811112090 Thanks again.
Hey Tribal, hope it works out at home--for what it's worth you have friends here who will be patient and supportive while you smooth out the rough spots and get back to creativity-- :)
Yes yes... we love the Tribal... the Tribal is our friend -> :D
Oh man, tribal, I've been reading this worklog all night now and I'm addicted! Your craftsmanship is ****ing amazing. This worklog is so inspiring, I can't wait until I can build my workbench and start on my own mod!
Anyways, I've got a bunch of things to say:
Those original pump housings looked so awesome (especially with the UV green accents) they reminded me of some structures from Halo. I hope the new ones look just as good.
Those 'futuristic' windows remind me of the English flag...
I've been looking for some tubing so I can tidy up the wires in my case. What are you using (it looks metallic)?
I'm in love with the DVD faceplates, theyre lookin' so sweet.
Yeah I know how things like that can screw up your life. My life has not been the happiest over the last 3 months, but I am getting buy. Hope things work out for the best and things get back on track for you.
As said before very nice work. Hope to see it done someday.
Hey bro, sorry to hear things aren't ideal for you at the moment. Take some time for yourself, get everythign sorted out, you know you've got a captive audience waiting patiently (well, usually patient that is) for your triumphant return. No matter what happens, things will work out.
Thanks guys:) Your words are very soothing. As you guyz like to read the log,... I like to read what all of you reply. Thanks again. Everything will be back on track this week. As soon I get the rest of the stuff for the camera I will be ready to go. Havent got the puter running yet. I was kind of busy today. I did solder the PSU all back together and got it running. It's installed in the temp case and ready to go. I cant wait to open the OCZ:) Till then.
could you get a pic of the whole case? :S
Yup,... tomorrow I am going to assemble what I have for a whole shot. Then I'll get started on here again.Quote:

Damn I forgot you guyz!!! I'm sorry!! I have been a wreck! I just posted an update this morning!!! Hold on,....
UPDAAAAAAAAAAATE!!!! So things are smoothing out over here. I got back with my gurl,... I gave it a second chance in hopes that it works out between us this time around. I was so going to just move on because I was just tired of all the BS. I tried but after a certain point you just have to run away. Better to start over in hopes that the next person doesnt have a ton of BS for you then to sit back and argue over and over trying to fix something that will most likely never be fixed. With my gurl,... she is young,... I think she can change. From what I have seen from her in the last several days,... I think she can. There a huge part of me that says she wont because these days people dont change for nobody. You either like it or you dont, even if it something stupid that could easily be changed. It's not like I am trying to change my gurl,... but it is something that she does need to change not just for me but for everyone if she should end up dating someone else later down the road should our relationship not work. Anyways,... all is good now. The garage is pretty much done. I bought alot of new tools and I have been trying to organize the garage so evrything hd a place. Crazy thing it that I still have stuff coming in the mail so this will be going on for the next week. I have begun working on blackout now even though the garage is still all over the place. Anyways,... I will be doing work on blackout here and there,... everday, every other day,... till shes done. Heres the update,...
Here's where I left you guyz,...
I bent all the fan tabs up. I should of bent the middle shield/ brace tabs first but no biggie, just would of been easier to bend them first.
Fan tabs done.
Rack coming together.
One of my new toys. I LOVE THIS FRIGGIN THING!!! ARGH!!! Check it out,...
Orbital function,... instead of the blade moving straight up and down, it moves in a slight circular motion so that on the down stroke the blade doesnt touch what you are cutting. It cuts down on friction. Friction is one of the reasons the blades wear out let alone the grinding itself in the down stroke. Friction is heat,... bad fo acrylic. This means that the acrylic wont melt as easily. I have not proven this yet seeing I havent cut any acylic but it makes sense. I had cut a piece of aluminum with this thing and DAMN!!! I never cut a piece of aluminum so fast with a jig saw!!! LOL.
Here's a shot of the blade in motion. You see the little hump in the stroke right under the bottom of the jig saw,... thats the tip of the blade in its up most position. It's moving is a circular motion.
It also has a fricken laser!!! These shots were taken while on a surface as in the laser is on the surface.
This shot the jig saw is being held as in not on a surface,... I adjusted the beam so that its right in the very center of the blade. So the beam you see is the blade. HOW FRIGGIN COOL!!!!
Now more "U" shank blades which means no more screw drivers to get the damn blades out. This thing is totally toolless. Hot.
Anyways,... here the side pieces.
Almost done.
All together.
Fans resting ontop.
Riveted.
HDD in place. I could bolt it into place because the rivets were in the way, just by the slightest though. Some filing will cure that.
This is not one of my favorite pieces. I enjoyed making it but its not my favorite. The fact that I cant get it to look relly nice is one factor. The other because its goign to be covered up. It is a quick simple fix to keep me moving forward. I think down the road I will pump out a couple of universal HDD racks that actually look nice. I have to get a tig welder first:) Thats the key:) Sorry about the pics. They lok pretty good but I am using my old POS 3mp camera. I miss my gurls camera. I am going to have to steal it from her. Either that or get a new one 5+mp camera. I need something with higher resolution. Anyways,... till the next update:) PEACE!
There you go,... feel better? LOL. More to come soon.
Glad everything @ home is smoothing out! The new toys look like fun :D
And as always the work you put Amazing! 8)
Keep it up (both in and out of the Garage!)
Crazybillybob
Strange Things, Women, soft, caring and stubborn as Mules.....(some wize Redneck)
/sigh of relief
Glad to hear things are better, and glad to see your triumphant return, or whatever you want to call it, to the boards and to this mod. Can't wait to see what else you have planned.
hey welcome back!--Man they are putting fricken' lasers on everything these days!..whats next, laser condoms?
I think those are called laser guided dickheads...........
Hey man its nice to see you modding again. I havent been around in a long time. As always it looks awsome hopefully in a couple weeks i can finally get to mine.
You the man Tribal... By the way, stop calling oyurslef a MODDER... Your work clearly shows that you are an Artist. This **** you pulling is pure art.
That's a ****ing fineee HD rack. You make it look so easy.
Thanks guyz! Good to be back too!! Everything is falling into place. Going to try and get as much done as possible as fast as possible. Things are starting to get interesting over here:)
Coffee just shot out my noise,....Quote:

Where are you Tribal man....?
I am not gonna start my mod till you finish yours. (Inner Monolouge: Gonna rip-off a few ideas from tirbal Muhuhahahaha :D ) Oops did i say that out loud?
I'm here. please dont wait for me. I am trying to get everything squared away here at the house. I will be working on her very soon.
Just glad to hear you're still on and around, bro. Take your time. And check your PM's.
I love this case.
Thanks dude:)
Rankenphile, got the PM. To be honest,... I dont have alot fo time. Plus I am not best at painting. I have tackled that yet. So I would most likely be the one using the how-to once it's done.
No prob, bro, just thought I'd include you. I'll be doing one on working with aluminum and acrylic, especially cutting and bending techniques, when the time comes, that I'd love to have your help with, if you have the time.
How are things going? Been a while since your last update. Hope everything is working out, I know you were going through some drama there for a while.
That I can help you with. The drama is over but something else has come up. I'll tell you all about it soon.
this case is simply amazing....thanks for sharing!
No problem man. Theres going to to be more to come:)
So,... i know a lot of you are wondering what the hell the hold up is with Blackout. Well,... Blackout isn't the only thing I have been working on lately. You see,... it wasn't until now that I can bring all my ideas to life. Before,... I didnt have the money, space, machines, or tools to pull off what I am working on now,... what I will be working on from here on in:) A.C. Ryan has made it possible for me to create,... what ever it is that I want to create, LOL. They have my back 100% of the way. I will use what I know to create the craziest, coolest,... computers, parts, and accessories. If I dont know how to do something,... I'll learn. If I have to go to school to learn it,... fine! This is what I do. For the longest time I had no idea what I wanted to do as a career. Clueless. But,... now, I do. This. I want to create. A.C. Ryan is going to help me build my career and inreturn I will help them. One hand washes the other. It's going to be crazy cool. I don't really want to give away my ideas because I want to keep them original. I can tell you that right now I am working on alot of water cooling accessories. We are calling it Tribaloverkill's "Liquid Evolution". You are going to flip when you see some of the stuff I have planned. You are going to flip when you see what I already made although it's not quite done. I am creating a revised version of it now,... you'll see in a bit. I am going to be creating computers of all sizes, big small, tiny so they can be used say,... in your car:) A.C. Ryan wants computers for cars, kitchens, everywhere! Some computers are going to look sleek and sexy, other will look hardcore and rough! Theres going to be welding, painting, sculpting, etching, bending, everything,... even electronics!!! I dont know S#$% about that so I'll have to school for that. LOL. We are going to be attending computer shows, events, lan parties,... promoting. So theres a good chance I'll get meet you guyz!!! Can't wait for that. Ummm,... Blackout is still in full effect. I will be working on here and whatever else it is I'll be working on. Right now I am doing all this part-time. Hopefully soon I will be able to do this full-time. Now,... part-time is what I was doing before, posting almost everyday. Full-time,... You have no idea! I swear I will be working around the clock to get stuff done. I want to pump out as much stuff as possible! I will pretty much have at least 2 active work logs and I estimated up to 4 once I reach full-time. These work logs are going to be on about 9 forums!!! Geez. Yea. What else? I know I am missing something. Oh,... I have a homepage! Right now it's www.acryan.com/studio/tribaloverkill but we are working on changing it to tribaloverkill.acryan.com. Maybe tomorrow the new address will be live. For now go to the first one and when the second goes live the first will be hot linked to the second, follow me? GOOD! So go there and READ I COMMAND YOU!!! Here it from them. So,... I am tired. I am going to create another work log so you guyz need to check it out! We need your feedback. So important. So post away! If you have any questions feel free to ask. PEACE!!!
Holy crap YES!!!
Tribal, this couldn't have happened to a better or more qualified guy. I am so proud! This is the best news!!!
Seriously, bro, I am extremely happy for you. I'm glad to hear your hiatus from the boards wasn't because of drama, but because of something as kick-ass as this! Congratulations, I can't WAIT to see what you can accomplish now that you can devote your full attention to this.
Um... does this mean that Spongebob is working with A.C. Ryan, too?
LOL. Thanks dude!!! You have no idea of the things I have planned. Welding is the first thing I will be learning. Think about how cleaner that HDD rack is going to look once I start welding:) Gawd. This is goign to get very interesting. I'm about ready to post my other work log. Check for it! Oh,... and Mr. Square Pants is offical working with A.C. Ryan too,... poor SB. New tools,... new ways of torturing him:)
Tribal, thats so ****ing cool that you got a job doing this. You're really good at it, that's for sure. Can't wait to see the stuff you come up with!
