I like the individual black and orange sleeves at MDPC-X. They would look excellent in there.

Yeah that's my backup plan but this other gear would be absolutely perfect - it's all black with just a single thread of orange which, because of the weave, makes it look like a repeating fleck. I wish I could find it - for the first time in about 3 years last night I actually used a search engine OTHER than google lol - yahoo, bing, askjeeves - and I still didn't find a thing :|

did you try dogpile? lol

[slaveofconvention]

LOL no, but I think I'm hooked up - waiting on an email - *crosses fingers*

[billygoat333]

dogpile is my next in line search engine after google.

I used to use that about a decade or more ago at university - maybe earlier than that actually, and I really can't remember why I stopped using it - might have been because I forgot about it when I stopped sneaking into the uni to use the computers lol

Ok so this will be the final entry in this worklog - well kinda. I'm officially calling this "Phase 1 Complete" - I have plans for some minor structural mods for cable management inside, and when I have time to rebuild my PC in this case, I'll also be going to town with a good old cable sleeving session. For now though, a brief update, followed by probably way too many photographs...

I picked up the last panel from the garage I've been using to get my painting done today...

Windowed Side Panel - Paint Complete

And I have to say, I'm real happy with how it came out - lovely and shiny like the rest of the case. How shiny? well....

Check out the polka-dot dress on the TV reflected in the panel

And mod-kitty junior can see another kitten in there to play with!!

Now I just need to get him to understand that this is part of my computer case and NOT his new bed...

Taking this picture, I kept whispering "Claws in, CLAWS IN PLEASE!!!!

Thirteen screws later and the panel is back in one piece with the window and mesh refitted.

Windowed Side Panel - Reassembled

And that's about it. I still have 3 or 4 screws left over :s I can live with that as I put so many in it isn't going to fall apart - that much I'm sure of...

And the final pics - well, Phase 1 final pics anyway....
