    Thanks a ton guys!

    Well, I made it back from Nvision last night around midnight. I will post pics of all the mods a bit later. It was a real great turnout, with about 15-20 mods competing. I got a third place finish. I was hoping for better, but I can't complain. At least I placed and took home some cash ($500), a new EVGA 790i FTW mobo, and GTX 260 vid card.

    Great work Boddaker!
    I saw BSG at Nvision, excellent work and deserved 1st easily.
    Rogue was no competition to your craftsmanship.

    I was curious about your side lcd. How did you get signal to it and could you link to it on moddersmart, I can't find it. See you at Nvision09, maybe I can get something together for that lan.

    The side LCD is connected to an EVGA USB video card. It has a different driver than the main cards, and it fired right up first time with no problems. I have it mounted inside the hard drive cage area, hidden from sight. It was one of the last things I did during my feverish scramble to finish the case for the show, so I don't have pics of it.

    Ok, for all of you who were waiting for a blast door video, I have sad news. I had to scrap the blast door idea. However, I didn't give up! I took a step back, regrouped, made more changes to the rollers, and made an airlock door instead. Mind you, it's not without its flaws. It still produces inconsistent movement and I'm not 100% confident in its operation, which is why I didn't mention it to the judges at Nvision. But it works!

    Here's a video I made detailing the DVD drive and the airlock. Enjoy!
