    Default Project: Epiphany - Finished after a year and a half's work

    What's up guys

    A few days ago i finished a mod i've been working on since the beginning of 2006. I worked very very hard, and now it's finally complete. I called the mod Epiphany.

    So let me give you guys the background about this mod before i show it to you.

    A few years ago i read a CustomPC magazine and saw the ORAC machine in it. It was really the most amazing mod i had ever seen. To this day, i still believe ORAC to be the most amazing mod. So i decided to do a mod of my own. This was the first real mod that i was to do, and i had absolutely no modding skills whatsoever.

    I didn't, however, want to make my case exactly like ORAC. I just wanted it to look similar. I even spoke to Peter himself and he gave me all his best wishes, and wished me luck for this mod. I still need to show him. hehehe.

    Anyway, here it is. Let me know what you guys think

    I agree... amazing!
    The wire management looks a bit tricky to say the least... Is it all functional or is some of it just cosmetic?

    Thanks guys

    Every single wire you see there is functional yes, and they all serve a purpose.

    The raddy was put there because there was just no space inside the case.

    That's an excellent tribute to ORAC, I think Peter will like it too!

    love it, the front looks awesome and for some reason the rad on the side just looks great. Though it could be a bit tidier inside :p
