    Thanks Aldersan Just completed 1 of my to play games from a big list, I originally intended to mod a bit, game a bit, live a bit but up to now has all been mod a lot lol, trying to balance it all better & get back up to speed on gaming so I can enjoy new ones when they are new rather than carry on adding new ones & not getting around to playing them.

    Started on the HDD cage for the HTPC & started the fan mount stand, all 5mm black acrylic, also cleaned up the workshop (needed it).




    Might get them stuck together before I go bed, might.


    Ordered the rest of the mini-ITX parts, Asus E45M1-I DELUXE on-board CPU/GPU & Kingston HyperX Blu 8GB & 4x 20w per channel fan controller & because I don't trust fan controllers after a couple of meltdowns a dedicated 92mm fan to cool it, fan controller is for the gaming rig. I'm Broke again.

    Thanks Aldersan made more progress.

    I should have gone bed lol, finished sticking at 5AM.

    HDD's slot in place on plates, 4 HDD 1 SSD. I first seen this method done by oliverw92 on his POLARity case mod, I liked how neat it was & said at the time I want to do that & now I am.







    HDD cage almost done.

    7AM HDD cage able to handle it.
    Just done a loose fit test to see how it all looks together up to the stand... But no sneaky peaky yet.

    After doing a loose fit the other day & seeing it kind of together I just couldn't keep it to myself so while waiting for a delivery today I did it again & took a few pictures & remember all of this is fresh raw cuts that are to be cleaned up a lot & there are a few more decorative pieces to be made.
    And yes the back panel is on the wrong way around & so is the PSU rather than have cables poke out the front.






    I'm not 100% sure but think the edges of most parts are like 0.3mm too big or about that so just need a faint sanding on edges, just glad nothing is too small because then I'd have a problem.

    I was going to use some different methods for fixing things together but it's probably silly & not worth the extra effort so I'll do same old screws to begin with but the option will still be available for the alternative tool less version but screws will be visible in places but won't have to use a screw driver for maintenance other than securing expansion cards, everything else will click & slot in place by the time I call this complete which is still a long way off I think.

    Thanks Aldersan yeah, nice to see how part of it will look now, just needed the hdd cage to fill the last level, should do the extra detail pieces next but need to decide wood or aluminium or even acrylic, decisions.

    Just got the mini-ITX mobo, 8GB RAM.

    Installed on the mobo tray & powered up to make sure all is ok & it is, the RAM goes perfect with it too, it's got the sweet efi bios on it too.






    I sliced a piece of the tip of my thumb off when cutting some bread earlier.

    Hopefully the tip missing from my thumb won't prevent me from carrying on, was only a 3mm loss but will need to be well covered when doing anything for a bit while it repairs, just glad it wasn't more than what it was.
