Yep back home again. Australia and New Zealand are so beautiful. Seen so many places and have done so many things I wanted to do
I've done a lot of things since I'm back from my vacation, but the thing is it just was not interesting for an update. Just because I had to make three or for of the same parts, parts that I already showed in previous posts.
But now I can show some new stuff, not much, but it is something new. First of all I almost finished two dustfilters, only need to clean, sand and polish them.
Drilled two holes in the acrylic and tapped the hole. Cut of the heads of some bolts and placed those in the holes. These metal pins that stick out need to keep the acrylic piece, that comes on top, in place.
The top, filter material and bottom.
And this is where the filters will be placed, I can slide them in there. This is the bottom of the case, underneath.
From these intakes the air will be guided through airducts. On the left you can see the holes without the airduct and on the right you can see the airduct in place.
This is how I mounted the airduct, just tighten the bolts and the aluminium profile pulls the airduct onto the rubber seal.
Also did some detailwork. Something that will be mounted on the backside of the case.
This will be the airoutlet on the back of the case. The frosted acrylic will give a pretty cool effect when the light from the orange fan is on. Used I torch to give you a bit of an impression.
Yay an update. Glad to hear you had fun in our country lol. That outlet looks amazing.

I just love Australia, if I could find a job over there I would book a flight for tomorrow.
A very small update today. I had to mount the fanhousings and didn't want the bolts to be visible. This is what I came up with. I glued two pieces of acrylic (5mm.) together and cut a triangle from this piece. To make it fit I rounded one corner, so I could glue it in the corner, on the inside, of the fanhousing.
After this I drilled a hole in these pieces of acrylic and tapped it. Attached it with two bolts to the aluminium panel. You can see the two bolts above the airducts.
A view from the side.
and from another angle. The compartment with the airduct will not be visible when this case is finished, only the side with the fanhousing will.
Glad to see you back, i was wondering what happened to this case. Can't wait to see more!
Those ducts look awesome.
