    Makes me want a 360 just to mod.


    Looks pretty ace, Mitternacht.

    I know what I want to do now with the Project. Here's the next steps to the project:

    I have it torn apart again.

    I'm making a window for the DVD drive.

    I have it kinda sketched out, but in order to get the right lines,

    I used a folded piece of paper

    to make the perfect shape I want,

    and then traced it.

    And 10 minutes later I have my window plans.

    If it's powered off with no disc in it, I don't want plain gray plastic to be seen, so I'm gonna paint the disc tray color-changing paint, the ol' burple color.

    I think it'll look good.

    Why not go window crazy? That's right, a window over top of my hard drive.

    Time to disassemble the hard drive.

    The guts:

    All disassembled:


    The 120 GB Hard Drive:

    This side will be seen thru the window.


    Now to map the window.

    Remember that paper?

    It's a big help to make templates to trace.

    That's about it. Next will be cutting the windows.

    I just need to add blue lights inside the hard drive, and it'll be even better than before.

    Mitternacht, you're one crazy bastard.

    But we love you.

    Also, I am LOVING your train of thought. "Hey, this isn't modded. Lets fix that..."

    =D

    Ok, let's get started.

    Now that I got some pilot holes,

    I can move on to the bigger tools.

    Slight cuts:


    Getting into shape.

    And we have a window.


    Now to smooth it all out.

    This side was easy to smooth out.

    Unfortunately it's uneven.

    So after another hour of working with the files, I got it close to perfect. Like the lid, I'll get these machine smoothed someday so they'll be perfect and straight.

    Now to assemble it.

    The window's a little too long for my liking, but I can live with it.

    Fnished:


    Installed:

    The boys, Wiedergeboren and Drei sechzig:

    Needs LED's. It's modded, yeah, but in the midst of all the other blue light, it kinda gets lost.

    Still, bitchin'.

    I'm looking for a computer job right now, and I'm thinking of using Wiedergeboren and Drei sechzig as part of a portfolio to impress the employers.
