Old server case mod

[nevermind1534]

I picked up an athlon xp server out of the trash last year, along with a nice printer. I cut a window in the side in June, and replaced the fans with some nice thermaltake ones with blue LEDs. Yesterday, I finally got to modding the bezel. I have cut off some plastic, and added some bondo to it already. It is coming along nicely, and I will have pics up later today. I plan on painting the bezel black (it's beige right now), and I'm debating on whether to leave the side panels bare metal, or if I should paint those too.

Now, TRWTF is why an Athlon XP was thrown out in the first place...

Keeping an eye out for pics, man! I know this is gonna be good!

Thanks for all of the comments.

I picked up two Athlon XPs from this guy before, numerous P3s, and numerous P3s. Last month, I got another two Athlon XPs, along with a socket 775 P4 3GHz.

Here's the pics.

I forgot to take a picture before I started, but here's one when I'm about half-way through cutting everything away.

With some Bondo

That's all for now. I hope to continue work on it next week. It's been around 20°F outside for the past week, and it doesn't look like that is going to change, so I might be forced to work in the garage. I still have to sand the Bondo, and add some more in various places. I did some test shots with my paint on scrap pieces that I cut away, and it turned out very well.

Good stuff, man. Looks like a great blank canvas; can't wait to see what you're planning to do with it...
