    OK time for an UPDATE!!!

    I needed something to fix the unneeded holes in the side of the case. So, I went to Autozone and bought some "Quick Steel." So I used this and it worked great. Its so strong, I dont have to worry about the holes anymore. If I need to drill a smaller hole in the same spot I can.

    Right Side holes fixed and primed.

    Left Side holes fixed and primed.

    For the front I used the "Quick steel" again to attach the front panel and primed. Trust me, it isnt coming off. I tested it with other scrap pieces and a hammer. I destroyed the steel before it even started to crack. I just need to fill in the gaps a bit and sand the primer smooth.

    While the primer was drying, I cut the bracket for the CD-ROM drive. Easy enough

    I went ahead and marked to screw holes for the top cover.

    The I used a small drill bit (forget the size) and made a hole for the sheet metal screws.

    The finished product. If you notice the top left screw has a brocken head. Nothing some vice-grips cant fix. .

    Once the primer was dry I sanded the entire case and primed it. A little smoother and I will need this when I paint it and blacken in some areas like I did for the top cover.

    Once that was dry I took some black paint and painted the underside of top cover and the case. Ill let them dry over night and start work again tomorrow.


    Thanx for viewing.

    Looking incredible man. Can't wait to see the front panel finished. That's when I'll lose it. Just awesome.

    yeah, no =p

    I doubt you could fit anything larger than a mobile-itx in there anyways (and it would have to be in the hopper)

    not to mention the last thing I need is cops to come into my house and see that I have (what appears to be) a support weapon...

    Omega, I can get ammo cases here in Vegas... Got friends on base. Got a particular size yer looking for? I have one right now that is roughly standard case size. I forget what ammo it carried originally, as I sprayed it black a long time ago. Can probably get a couple more of those fairly easily (I think it was 20mil ammo)

    OH I finished the back door.

    I started by evening up the door to the case as much as possible. Its close enough. I also had to cut off two rivet heads on the left side of the case so i could attach the hinges.

    After they were cut, I taped everything up to mark the holes and then drilled.


    Before I attached the door, I wanted to cut a small hole in the bottom for air ventilation. So, I marked it off and then cut it with the handy dremel. I intend to put some mesh in the hole as well.


    After that, I attached the door with the hinges.

    I then marked the holes for the latches and attached them as well.


    I then sanded and threw on some primer to protect the metal.


    I hope to start the front tomorrow but that will be a challenge. I have to cut a piece out of another case to create a door for this one. O just hope I dont screw-up the measurements.

    Thanx for looking,
    -danthegeek


    On a side note:

    I think it looks much better then it did before the overhaul.

    I don't know man. I think it looks awesome after the renovation. I cant wait to see this one finished. Then I can start my ammo can mod after this. This mod is an inspiration. Good luck with the rest. I'll be watching.
