Now I'm tempted to do one based on the Defiant.

Increasingly stunning with every post! How much does this weigh in at right now ASP? I'm not good with actual weights so try and compare it to something for me if you could lmao. Like how many times as heavy as a standard PC tower is it for example? If indeed it is, maybe it's a lot lighter than I imagine it to be

And in the left corner we have the Dragon Lord K62 Miditower, weighing at 9,9 Kg's (K62 is heavily modded with 2 windows and a 280 radiator - 1.5Kg - in the top)

And in the right corner we have the newcomer USS EURISKO, surprisingly weighing in at 9,6 Kg's with only the reservoirs fitted in the warp nacelles

Both contestants have been kindly asked to remove the PSU to have the best Aluminum to Glass-Fiber/MDF comparison!

Thansk for watching!

Wow, you seem to have been able to keep weight really reasonable without any compromise to coolness. Good work man Continuing to love it

[xr4man]

can you put those weights in real weight instead of imaginary kilo-gram stuff?

[ASPHIAX]

Troy
pound lb t = 12 ounces, 240 pennyweight, 5760 grains or 0.373 kilogram
9.6 Kg = 25.7 pounds (US)

[TheMainMan]

Google lists a pound as being 0.453 kilograms, making 9.6 kgs a little over 21 lbs.

[ASPHIAX]

1 troy or apothecaries' pound = 0.82 avoirdupois pound = 0.37 kilogram
1 avoirdupois pound = 1.2 troy or apothecaries' pounds = 0.45 kilogram
1 kilogram = 2.205 avoirdupois pounds

You are right! I did a search and found only the apothecairies pound and used that value.
I stand corrected (and happy the weight is actually 4 lbs lower!)

Here is an update on the LCARS Fancontroller.
After spending several hours cutting out the final pieces from the panel it looks like this. Put the LXE next to it to give an idea of the layout.

I ran this front through the CNC of a friend of mine but the result is not completely there yet. There are little pieces curled up in the corners that i just can remove. Tried a heatgun (almost ruined the whole front with it as the rapid heating caused the thin element to buckle), scalpels and a soldering device. Just isnt the cleanness I was hoping for.

Gonna try lasercutting the front now!
Keep you updated!
