Re: Project : V for Vendetta
Wow. I had forgotten about this log's potential. Checking back in, I can see that it is being fullfilled! You are doing a great job with this mod, and you have a very unique idea for your case.
May I ask where you are fabricating this? Is it your place of work?
Also, how much was the aluminum? My only source of metal in my town is the home depot, a horrible source for metal. I just needed about 3 feet of U channel, but they only had 8 feet for 20 dollars. Rip-off!

TY :) Yes it is my place of work ... I work in a metal fab. / bending shop. No white collar here :P
As far as the aluminum goes ... umm 8 20' lengths of 3/4"x1/16" angle, 1 24' length 1"x1/16" square tube, and 1 4'x8' sheet of 1/16" aluminum sheet ... Cost? Around $300.00CDN, but my boss is paying for it ... he likes to make me happy sometimes :) Should be plenty left over when I'm done "V" so I'll probably start another box soon after :P
Later all.

BTW I saw your first sketchup. I like this one alot better. Well done in the remodel! Bravo
Re: Project : V for Vendetta
Wow, ive been messing around with this forum for about a year now and finally got off my ass and registered due to the fact i wonna say how cool of an idea you have going, alot of people dont understand the message behind the movie and what it hints at, but either way its a great movie and a great mod that you have going. Great Work ;)
Re: Project : V for Vendetta
Thanks all of you for the comments, I'll try and live up to your (and mine) expectations. :)
Work has been busy as usual this week so no work done on the case :(. I'm hoping to squeeze in a few hours this weekend, so with any luck I'll have some pics of it come sunday night. But....
... GOODIES!!!! The stuff I ordered has begun to arrive, and knowing how everyone likes to look at brand new SHINY's (and how I like to show off brand new shiny's to people who appreciate them) I snapped a few shots for your approval.
Oooo boxes, I wonder what's inside...
First Box ...
Ooooo Subject of the theme, with...
... the perfect sized mask for my case. :) (Thanks again Vertigo for the info!)
Next box...
... 5 120mm fans and a 140mm fan, cool :) (pun intended)
And finally, the third box...
Koosah block for my 7900GTX, Triple120mm Radiator, 2 Swiftech MCP655 waterpumps, and the Strider 750W power supply. :) :P
I love it when a plan starts to come together. I also recieved notice that another package is waiting for me to pick up at the post office ... I really need to get more time in to work on the case, as it stands I'm gonna have $2000 sitting in boxes waiting for me to finish it. :(
I'll post more pics tomorrow of the goodies I get, and hopefully LOTS of pics of the case work I do over the weekend.
'Till then, peace all.

Re: Project : V for Vendetta
Ohh the third box is the best.
I swear when ever I get a parcel in the mail it is like how you feel at christmas when you where little.
Who knew you could by fans in 5 packs
Re: Project : V for Vendetta

Re: Project : V for Vendetta
