I started this project a couple of months ago, but had not posted it here. So, to catch you all up...
I've been building with craft sticks and Elmer's glue for over ten years now. I haven't done much lately but build some homes for my daughters toys to live in. About a year ago, out of sheer boredom and no money for modding, I spent the better part of a week building an airplane. The airplane is approximately 3 feet long and has a 3 foot wingspan. Since I finished it, it has been sitting in my basment collecting dust. Yesterday while at school, it dawned on me that I could probably work a PC into the configuation.
So it begins. I'll be using my handy Via Epia V10000 with 512MB PC133, a 20GB HD, CD drive and a 140 watt PSU. These are all the parts from my now totally dismantled UFO PC.
Here's my box of 1000 extra sticks.
Here's the wingspan. The ruler next to it is 24 inches.
And the body of the pane, partly torn up, with the same ruler.
Here's a close up of where the PSU will lie.
And with the PSU in place.
The mobo.
The front of the plane empty.
And with the added intake fan.
