Thread: Project: DayWalker

  1. #1

    Default Project: DayWalker

    DayWalker is sort of a group project. I enlisted a modder buddy, geno[at]boxgods.com, to design a Blade-themed case. He took my basic idea and really ran with it (putting in over 300 hours of highly-professional work). I think Dead Guy and CPUKIllah will attest to the quality of his SolidWorks designs.

    TribalOverkill created an amazing Blade-themed resevoir/shield specifically for this project.

    At the moment the metal parts are being fabricated and likey plated.

    Soon we will cut the acryllic portions at DD.

    The rig will be two gaming rigs in one case with a removable file server on the top. The shape of the build is a cross. The arms of the cross contain two 20" LCD monitors in the 'top' and 'bottom' arm of the cross. When the rig is turned on the cross arms turn to gaming mode by rotating 90 degree so you can see two monitors from the front and two from the back.

    There is a glitch in my Solidworks install that make the screws big so disregard that .

    Just saw this on the DD forums. I love the idea, it's going to be huge but not as big as that Tetris clan PC build. Can't wait for more.

    That's a very ambitious design. I like it. 300 hours to design it? Motivation like that is impressive. Can't wait to see more.
    My goal in life is to earn enough money to enjoy the lifestyle that my wife and kids do.

    Let's start with the featured section, with you, Tribal, and geno having your hands in this I have no doubt it will be a famed project either.

    It's looking great man! I'll definitely have to swing by and check it out in person. I don't care if I can't drive, I'll foot it to see such magnificence.

    This thing will be on par with Project Mars City, no doubt.
