This weekend was very busy, so about all I got time for was to clean up the one window and cut the other.
Here is the first window. I used some spot putty on it to fill in the tool marks from the dremel. That’s pretty much the last step needed for that particular window.
Here’s the plastic panel cut for the other window:
…And again with the metal portion cut.
Since the LEDs were just scotch-taped on temporarily, some of them have shifted from their intended location, but that is not wholly important:
I’m going to have to paint some “black out” on to the plexi. Since the transparencies are sandwiched between two pieces of glass, the thickness of the front piece allows light through. When viewed from certain angles (such as above in these pictures) is give the picture some bright borders. No problem – this is an easy fix.
Next step is to make the mount for the HDD cage and cut the blow hole, and then preliminary construction is finished on the case. After that, I can begin the cosmetic work.
Too cool!!! That looks AWESOME man!!
Wow. That looks amazing. +rep.
My plan had been to find a piece scenery fence to use as a front fan grill. Well, I have had zero luck finding one. Therefore, I did what any modder would do: I made one.
What I did was sketch up something in a graphics program, printed it out, and glued it to some scrap metal. I used regular old Elmer's so that some hot water will remove it later. This print out will be my guide while I work.
Here, I have drilled guide holes in the center section of the fence. The smaller lower parts, and the scroll work at the top are going to require smaller than usual Dremel discs. This is why I always save my burned down discs instead of tossing them.
From there, it was a lot of cutting, more cutting and some trimming.

After everything is cut out, a quick bath to remove the paper, and here is what I've got:
(NOTE: The above is not its final position on the case. I just held it up to see.)
I still need to do some serious work with a needle file, but this is a start.
That Fan grill looks awesome like where this is headed + rep
