The Cf work is done. You better take an extra look, because you wont see the CF-PARTS for some time.

now we´re starting with the inside of the case. step one. we need a new hdd cage. that´s my final version:

materials needed: aluminium bar ( 25x5x1000mm )

and a normal aluminium sheet (3mm).

after sanding is started cutting the sheet

and the bars

ineeded some slits to mount the hdd properly. i tried to drill them out as far as possible.

for everything left i took a keyfile. you see some in the picture above. this took hours!

to connect the sheet and the bars i used m2 screws.

some testing.

the sheet at the and isn´t strong enough to handle the torque of the hdd´s. the chromed bars will support.

finished!

this tiny piece holds the cage in place when mounted. screws are m2 too

i love it when people build stuff
great work, it looks wery nice
i was wondering.... could you have made that pice from C.F.?

[Vertigo]

That's a really slick idea for the HD cage, and pretty simple/straight forward. +Rep

[GT40_GearHead]

you still haven't answered my question
could you have made the cage out of C/F ????

[derbaum]

sry and of course i could. there´s no reason why i shouldnt.

[GT40_GearHead]

hhmmm... so the next question comes to mind: why didnt you

dont get me wrong, the aluminium one is great but i'm just curious
