    Default My First Mod Project

    I have been planning this project for a while now and I finally won my new 'case' on ebay the other day.
    It's big enough for a m-ATX motherboard and regular PSU.
    I want to make it into a rig for LAN partie and I want it to look military and technological.

    The idea is for the front panel to remain largely as it is now and I'll stealth a slot loading DVD-ROM into the side.
    I will fill the oscilloscope screen with either a small lcd unit or a led fan.

    I plan to use the volt meter to show fan speed or HDD activity.
    I want a blow hole on top and some light to shine underneath the case.

    I still don't have a name for the project I want something military and menacing...possibly Area 51 or something.

    Any suggestions or advice from anybody would be gratefully received.


    Heres the case....




    Another veiw





    Cheers

    Ouch!

    Those pics are really small. I can barely make out the detail-although they look pretty sweet, despite their tiny size.

    I received my oscilloscope yesterday and spent the whole day stripping it down and removing all the interior components. There were lots of old vacuum tube type valves, which I hope to incorporate back into the thing in a small way. I'll post more pictures later.

    Also, after agonising for weeks over what this project is going to be called, I went out for a curry with my friend Paul last night. I explained my idea and instantly, he came up with the name. "The Interocitor"

    If you need to know what an interocitor is, you need to watch the 1954 sci-fi film "This Island Earth".

    Cheers

    Ouch!
