Project: Moditor

would you mind opening separate accounts with your own email and info for each? If it is easier, I can edit the screen name for this account if you enter your correct email address. Sharing an account is something we don't like.

this still isn't named? How about Project Monador?

um updates tonight i spent today cutting down a 50foot tree and got a chainsaw dropped on mah nose wasnt going at the time im ok so ye i got to have a shower bbl


um im gunna call it project moditor

You will have to make your own account. jdbnsn can edit the name of this one though.

ye dw he hardly uses it anyway

i told him at school that i was making a case so he had to comment propably will be me mostly

okay updates!!!! god i love that word means i have or some1 else has worked hard to show the good ppl at tbcs what they can do

hardware specs atm i will update when i can get/afford (what ive got cables to)

1 10gig HDD
1 4cm heatsink if useable
2 sata data cables
1 4pin to sata power converter
1 screen plug converter
1 430w thermaltake psu
4 fans
1 pwr cable

(no pics atm u get the point anyway on tuesday i have the day off so im going down to RONTEK)





i decided to cut out the back bit of the case so i can fit 2 HDDs side by side

this is the plan for the back now to hide the HDDs

also decided to grind the mounts for the HDD and the cd rom

i came back from getting a drink and my old neighbour/friend was working at his machine (stays at our house) and he was workng on mah mounts so he did them for me im really lazy btw
i did cut them short so it was easier

they turned out really really nice

just a short little add on
my aunty used to work/own a computer shop and she has lots of old parts that some are still in their boxes and she gave me some things to clear a little bit more room this is what i got

3 cd rom audio cables i think
1 set of brand new speakers
1 web cam
2 heatsinks (old ones but are what im gunna use atm)
1 set of head phones
1 mic

i plan to either mod this stuff sell it to my mates or sell to shop or get store credit at RONTEK (kinda my sponser only shop thats given me free stuff)

this is the one i am going to use atm

remember the slide out HDD racks i told you about after close thought i can not use them but heres the pics anyway

i went to the hardware shop and bought some knead it which is like putty to do some jobs the gap on the bottom i decided it didnt matter if it was there or not but i knew it needed to be flat so i puttyed that up

and the fan on the top the screws were pulling through so u puttied them up to

let them dry took about 10-20 mins

then started sanding (rolls eyes)lots of hours later :P took about 2 hours i think

the cd rom didnt quite fit .so i had to cut a bit out (green line)

thats all for now this update took ages will post more when i have done it till then happy moddin

oh ye happy easter fools

Original owner here, since I don't use this account much I give permission for its name and info to be changed etc. to whatever Jeff (the modder) wants.

I might create a new account later on down the track. :banana:

cheers zac :P told ya he wouldnt care much thanks for changing the name btw whoever did it!!

Nice update lots of work done.

looks really good.

I like how those speakers say they are 160watts! Thats pretty funny.

ye it was lots of work but it might not look like it

the speakers say P.M.P.O 160w i think there old old

meh free stuff cant complain

haven't tested yet so ye

um i might putty up that bit that says KTX soon minior update

the HDD at the back will get mounted to the bit so might need to make it stronger


list of jobs to do still

drill mb holes
mount I/O pannel somehow gunna be fun
mount psu
work out were i can stash more fans
mount HDDs(find 2 matching racks first)
mount cd rom
putty ktx bit

mount the back HDD hiders
all i can think of atm

i forgot to add this in last night

with a click of my magic modding fingers :P
cut and frosted

no new posts =-( anyway
bit of an update

i had the day off again so i went to ronTEK again and went through their cases with a more broad list of things to get

this is what i got (free again!!! ty ronTEK")

this is probably the most likely to match i dont know i forgot the rack and left it at dads

this is there shops 2nd hand part

tonight i plan to cut out a spot for the mb tray to fit in here

Haha that's an impressive selection of spares lol. So many possibilities.

yeah i reckon hey if only i could afford to buy them all

small update

i did get my dremel today but i forgot to tell dad to put the conector part for the blades so 1 more day until a realy update :P

these are the two HDD cages i got that i thought would match they didnt match exactly left one is todays find right is the older find

ttly happy modding

Looks good so far I may just blatantly steal your idea and mod 2 monitors for my boys to use in thier rooms.... late night internet in the rooms ...maybe not.

lol wasnt totally my idea to start with
but

TMed now :P just to be a bastard

ok small update ...

see this bit here (the support looking things)

if i cut them out the i have a front support for my mb tray so got to work

now if i cut this bit off to make it fit nice its a good bracket(ill cut it this weekend)
