    Default breifcase rig

    the vision

    should have enough room


    well i started cutting holes today using the bonnet of my HQ statesman as my workbench (with carpet padding)





    scored the m\b frame from one of my old rigs...it pays to hoard!!
    just had to 'tweak' it a bit with the 40 oz ball pein hammer



    some holes for the psu and some hacked out power supply plugs and a good zap later




    power and hdd led's were off another project

    more psu cooling mmmmmm 120mm

    is niice

    couldn't resist a bit of biohazard



    looks good4 now i have a feeling that they both are going to need better brackets or screws

    i borrowed some 40mm fans from the missus laptop cooler 'hehe'

    mmmmmmmmmm HD audio front panel goodness

    LG DVD multi drive fits like a charm *the ORIGINAL plan was to use up some old crap *

    I wish you luck, the idea is pretty good.

    The first pick literally made me lol, it was kinda funny.

    +rep for making me laugh, and not many things make me laugh.
    It's like JFK announcing the moon mission. He had no expertise in space travel, and no way of knowing if it would work. He just announced "we're going to the moon" and then they made it happen because everyone was on the same page and working towards the same goal. If he had said "well, let's get some people in space, and we'll see how far out we can get, and if I find someone to make a rocket strong enough, we could possibly approach the moon's orbit and maybe land" it wouldn't have happened.

    aaaahh i found some time to post some more goodies


    extra cooling as this is going to be the top of the case

    hhhhmmmmmm whats that for??... the trusty 'ol' 17 lcd of course




    i had to remove the hdd @ the top of pic as it hit the zalman cpu cooler which i modified ,the 3mm blue led's were de-solderd and replaced with ones that change color from red to green to blue and then all the inbetweens.

    my mobo shat its self about 2 weeks before the build ...i gave it a go to no avail and thought it might be the psu .....so basicly @ the moment i have a smaller psu(modified)and a cheap board to handle the amd athlon 5600 and the kingston hyper-x i already have . so i got an asus m2n68-am which is proving to be awsome value for money @ $68 (umart) its piss poor i know but it does what i need til i save some more coin
    ...lights on...


    yay its all up n running im writing this on it now
    final pics soon

    Is that really a Snap-on case, or did you just put Snap-on stickers on it?
