Project: Red Comet

Ooh.. now that I can see this on a monitor, it looks 10x better! I really like that close up of the lettering. The different depths really sets if off.

Thanks! It came out way better than I was expecting it to for my first time. My hand hurts like hell from holding the dremel now though lol

ok so I've got XP loaded on this machine and all that's left to do is finish wiring up the LEDs for the FX controller, and it'll be done! Hopefully I can get it done within a week or two

Thanks! I'm itching to get the LEDs finished and get this thing done! Maybe tonight I can spend some time on it.

Update time!

I sleeved the power connector for the LED FX kit.

I then soldered in 16 5mm LEDs. I used all sorts or warm colors including red, yellow, warm white, white, amber and even a few aqua colored ones for effect.

And a fresh install of XP. Power House is already being put to good use! I'm using it here to provide the power for the DVD drive.

And it's finished! Here's the final pics! I've got a video uploading as well, will post it when it's done!
