Beast Of Nature | ITX Scratch build in wood!

Subbed - stunning attention to detail.

I like the stark contrast of natural wood meets industrial aluminium - looking forward to end result - great stuff.

Thank you! yeah thats what I am going for I didn't want it to be all wood because I wanted a more modern look :D
 
Long time since last update, will try and make up for it with a longer one then usual :)

First of I finished all the wood working and added the corner pieces that will be holding the front and back pieces in place.

Not a single screw will be used for the wood frame itself its all held together with wood joints so it was really solid even before applying glue.

Here is plexi for the side windows.

This is what it looked like when it was all clamped in for the glue to dry.

I really like how the bends turned out with the different layers.

Front and back are made of some spare material I found, actually have no idea what its called. But Its made up of some kind of plastic in the middle and very thin aluminum on both sides, that made if very easy to machine with wood tools.

Made a wooden jig to help with cutting the holes for the front intake fans, and it worked really well. And thanks Mnpctech for the awesome template.

Any updates. This is a lovely project I would love to see it completed
another fan of this build, was just checking through on a few subbed builds and two great ones just seemed to have died a death:? can't believe this didn't get finished after all the attention to detail, so hoping it's just a time to post issue..
And now you have time :D:D
 
Fantastic, can't wait to see more updates.
OMG, the woodwork on that, just impressed!
Any updates. This is a lovely project I would love to see it completed
Same, hoping it gets completed :cool:
great design and looking forward to seeing this progress.
Looking good!
Thank you guys! been a while... but its time to finish the project so stay tuned ;)

very slick indeed... is that a school/workshop?
Thanks, yes that is at school :)

love this! just a note, from your 3d render, the gpu clearence seems to be just single slot?
Thanks, you will be able to use dual slot card but will need to be watercooled because no cooler clearance for air.
 
Long time no update

But its finally time to finish this project.
