Nuts PC build

Good find, if anyone knows where to get those SATA power plugs from that he uses to make his own SATA power cable, PLEASE tell me where they're from, I've been looking for some for ages. :(

Google search has been fruitless, I think I may have the name of them wrong though?
 
The guy is a legend, have a look on his Youtube channel for his other builds. I can't believe he does everything himself, aside from the music. I love his setup in the garage as well, I aspire to have that many tools one day.

same, although i know i probably would even use most of them but it would be awesome to have :p

Really cool build, although I cant help but think that the hard drives might get a little hot
 
His hackentosh in a xbox is pretty awesome too think it won one of the catagorys of that Intel mod contest back along. The guy is a video editor by profession as you can probably tell by the vids.

Wow what a awesome Fileserver

The finished article is very, very impressive. The more effort you put in, as they say...

I was secretly hoping it wouldn't post at the end though. A shot of of him staring at his handiwork and shouting 'Why won't you work!?' would've have been comforting. :D


I'll go and have a look at the rest of his work now.

Takes more then tools to make a good job, even if i had all those tools i doubt i could make something as good as that.

What he has acheived isn't that difficult given the workshop he's in, the tools he has at his disposal makes the job pretty straight forward. Watching what he does, bending, drilling, sanding, cutting, welding etc is very basic fabrication with a mind to working sums for the design.

The end result looks great don't get me wrong, but it isn't what I'd call difficult given what he has at his disposal and the brand new tool selection which appears in virtually every shot even down to the clamps...

I find it similar to those that spend possibly £1000's on parts for a PC, build it in their shiny new case, take some pics and go ' look at my rig '..yes it looks nice, but it's hardly difficult what you did. However the guy who spends his saturday trying to cut holes in his case with a hacksaw, pliers and any tool he can find in his dad's shed just to make a fan fit is going to get my appreciation a lot more.

Anyway, it looks good :)
