Hahaha yeah, I really feel sorry for the poor chap at Performance-PCs that has to box that package for me.

Also, I just noticed for the first time that I have 161 rep points. Considering that I only have 106 posts I was taken a back.

I'd like to thank everyone who has posted and especially those who have given me the +rep.

Much of my drive on this project has come from the thousands of positive responses I've received on my work-logs, and in my email inbox.

Thanks everyone!

Here in the early hours of the morning I came up with a method of running the ATX and 12V lines between the motherboard and the mobo-tray - only to emerge right next to the PSU.

What I have come up with will involve soldering the power lines right to the mobo.

Also I'll be making a cut though the mobo tray beneath the ethernet port - I intend to solder a second port onto the bottom of the mobo, making it easier to wire the mobo to the Alix router.

I'll post a proper illustration - my brain fart doodling is indecipherable. Methinks it'll be tomorrow evening as I'm now off to bed now.

OoOoO. Soldered ATX/12v wires wou;d be kick ass. Don't forget to take the connectors off the front of the board lol. I can't wait to see this.

why sleeve the tubes? cant you just use black tubing?

[gramatton]

Soldering the power to your board...wow. Can't wait to see it done, never seen that before.

+rep for making my boss call you crazy

We actually had a guy here remove the power connector from the motherboard and solder the wires from the PSU back into the board from the rear. It was amazing and I've never seen it done again. Unfortunately, I cannot remember who it was or what mod it was but if anyone here remembers please post a link.

I've heard of it jdbnsn, I searched on google once one of my buddies told me about it, but never found it.
