    Default Bitspower Goodies



    After months of talking with Bitspower, a box randomly showed up at my house So thanks Bitspower for sponsoring my build with lots of fittings (40+), a GTX 460 WB and 2 HDD WB.



    Thanks guys!

    Default Its been awhile

    So its been awhile since my last update. Work has been getting done just not enough at one time to make a post about it. I was super busy with life. My sister came to visit for about 2 weeks and I got a new boss so that is where most of my time has been spent. Also my wife and daughter are back so I spend a lot of my time with them. Here is what I have done over the past month up to this morning. (Not in any particular order)

    I finally received the replacement back panel so I drew everything out.

    Due to time constraints I forgot to take a picture of it all cut out.

    Since I got that done I could finally install the 2nd rad.


    I put the waterblock I got from Bitspower on the EVGA GTX 460.









    Here I was messing with a single white LED under this plexi to see how well it glowed... It didn't workout as well as I hoped so I need to work on it more.


    I needed to drill holes in the center divider for the Bitspower pass through fittings.


    Starting to install them.


    All done.


    Here I was trying to figure out where to put the pumps.






    This was my next solution.




    And my final solution.


    I also started working on my water tubing routing.



    Its still a work in progress.

    I built a cover to hide the PSU cables.






    And then I glued it all together.



    And finally I covered it with Carbon Fiber because it looked like crap. Once I get some good acrylic glue I will remake it properly but this will have to do for now.

    I decided to cut down the Media Card Reader enclosure to make it smaller. There is no need to keep it full size.






    Here I measured the half I cut to the other half.


    Marked and ready to cut.

    More pictures of the final product in my next update.

    Here is one of the sides of the HDD racks I made from scratch.

    They came out rather nice.




    Now I'm working on a mounting system so I can take the HDD cages in and out with ease to add more HDDs.

    And finally today I started working on the HDD side window.


    Drilled and ready to cut.


    I have more on the side panel coming in the next update since it took all day to upload these pictures.

    Hope your happy to see more work!

    Cheers till next time!

    Default HDD Side Panel

    I got more work done on the side panel last night.




    What I did was clamp the orange pieces to the main panel and lined them up as best I could. Then I filed down all the edges so that they were perfect. Then I sanded each edge with 200 grit to get most of the big scratches from the files out. I still have to sand a bit more but its pretty much done.







    Once I finish the edges I will glue them to the main piece and then glue on the clear piece. I don't think I will get the lighting done before the 20th for the competition but I can try. More work to come very soon.

    Cheers till then.
