Battlefield 2 L.A.N. PC.

I received some fan grills from xoxide.com today. Well atleast two od the frills will be for fans .

These are the basic plain grills I thought would look good on the case. There are twoo of each size (120mm and 60mm)

Whats 60mm grills for, you ask? Well I needed matching grills for the speakers and they almost fit perfectly.

I think they will look good once painted black.

Thanks for viewing.

Almost forgot. I will also be making a power remote for this case but I am unsure of how it will be done. If you have any insight please post comments on that thread, not in this work log.

This is the design for the remote once finished,the c4 detonator, hopefully.

I started constructing my remote power switch that will look like the C4 detonator on Battlefiled 2.

I went to my local Home Depot and picked up this wireless and battery operated doorbell. Its made by Chime Design, model# WD-1120, and was only $10 U.S.

I first ripped the entire thing apart.

Secondly I wired the 5V relay I bought at radio shack to the receiver. I used solder and hot glue to insulate.

I then glued the receiver into a small project box I also picked-up at Radio Shack.

I wired the receiver to my pc using this diagram. No final pics because I was simply testing to make sure it works.

With a new remote power switch, I have to make this project box look like the detonator from BF2.

I plan on completing this box tomorrow; a little cutting and gluing should do the trick.

Comeback tomorrow to see the final results on the detonator.

Sweet idea for the remote start! Just make sure no one thinks your a terrorist and calls SWAT when you go to start the thing.

lol, yah I was at radio shack asking all sorts of questions and told one of the guys I was making a remote detonator. He looked at me in a funny way, so I told him it was for a battlefield 2 themed computer for remote on/off.

WARNING To 56K

Ok I started my detonator today and actually finished but, it doesn't look like the one off of BF2. Its close but definatly not the same but I still like it. The best part is it only cost me about $20 to make in total.

Anyways some pics.

EDIT - I took a project box and wrapped it in foam insulator for pipes to give it a rubber feel.

I then started wraping the thing in some cloth I bought a wal-mart. it was cheap ($1 a yard).

I also decided to make an antenna for it using cloths hanger, a bic pen, and hot glue. No it is not functional, purely for looks.

I then cut out the needed holes in the metal plate. One hole for the on/off, one for the led, and the other for an off switch to save the batteries .

I then mounted the buttons and underside for the switch.

Ok, Finished. I used some paint to give it a weird look but didn't work to good on the sticker. Paint seemed to dry before getting to it. Heres some final pics, but I still need to clear coat the top. I did paint over the Led because I burnt it out, ill stop at radio shack tomorrow and get another one.

Thanx for lookin
