Mate, nice work, it is coming together very well, looking great.
this is gunna look good once polished! :)
Thanks boy 4rm oz and dont-fear :)
Ordered the polish just before 3pm yesterday and recieved it the next morning and it came with a bonus microfibre cloth which I was not expecting :).
I used an old soft rag to test this stuff out, this shot is what a minute of using the metal prep with a tiny blob did.
These shots is with using a tiny blob of the mirror finish, again with an old rag which is why there are fine scratches, of course I will be using quality soft new rags to apply this to the case.
1st impressions of this stuff are "ohhhh yeaaaah" :) especially since I used a poor quality well used rag and hardly spent any time on it, just a quick test.
When I ordered the switches a bit ago I bought black ones 1 with blue dot and 1 with blue ring, but with me now going for a mirror finish I decided to get silver switches 1 white dot and 1 white ring by lamptron and also got a lamptron white cathode set 1st impressions of it are it seems the best pc cathode I have seen, it has a knob on the inverter which is for sound activated sensitivity but can turn the sound sensitivity off and keep the light on, the wires are a bit short but I'll easily extend them if needed, also got 2 quad fan connectors for keeping all the fan cables together 1 for front and side fans and 1 for cpu and rear fans, the cables underneath the switches are pre made cables for the switches by lamptron so no messing about for me, I'm so glad they started doing these as I can't stand doing soldering and braiding :).
And these are the parts I went window shopping for lol, wish I had the money for them to put in this case, one can dream :).
That polish is great, very nice product. Do you mind posting up a pic of the white CCFLs illuminated? I have seen the Bitspower ones and were considering using them for a future mod, they would be much more convenient than soldering a bunch of LEDs together lol.
Here you go boy 4rm oz :).
Much brighter than any other cathode I have ever seen.
been a while since I cleaned my rig with being busy.
Show you pictures of light I will, now you know the power of the force lol :D.
On with todays update :).
Wow at last I got the front extension 99% perfect and mounted, the dvd drives fit so perfect the bezels are stopping the drives from going any further, I used the cotton bud trick for aligning, just need to put the holes for the power/reset switches in place and the front is done except for polishing, phew :D 4th attempt was worth it I'm happy to say and is detatchable whenever I want it to be without having to drill rivets out.
The extra cut outs on the back side I could use for stashing unwanted wires out of the way .
Been at it virtually everyday for close to a month now so if its sunny tomorrow I'm chilling in the sun :), been cloudy all july and so far for august, reminds me of last year.
NIce work, lookin good. May the Schwartz be with you
kickass dude ,verry nice
Glad to see the front extension finally worked out, I know how it is to do the same part over and over and over until it's right. Looks great!
looks wicked.
Thanks for the pics mate, they are exactly what I am looking for.
