Amazing! Do you mind if I ask whether you're a carpenter by trade or just a skilled amateur? I'm pretty sure that any attempt I made would be bloody terrible!

Thank you. I'm definitely an amateur at these things. I was hopeless at woodwork at school but developed an interest in building stuff a few years ago. I was interested in building a arcade cabinet but wasn't sure whether it would be any good but thought I'd jump in anyway. I borrowed some tools and things have progressed from there.

Impressive stuff! Where did you get that ribbed top sheet from? Can you get it in different colours or only black?

Thanks. The fine ribbed rubber matting only comes in black unfortunately. It's available from floormatting.co.uk

Working on the legs at the moment. These will require a lot of preparation to get them smooth. The treaded inserts have been fitted:

Opted for another metal ROG sticker for the front of the stand:

Very nice build there, and your setup looks great too.

Right, it looks excellent! However, did you not think of maybe putting any fans inside? It could have helped blow cool air in to the room and PC?

That's not a bad idea! I do have a cooling solution though ... a fan on a unit I'm building for the racing rig on the other side of the desk:

There's a saying,

ThereIs0nly0ne · 28 Jul 2016 at 08:15

Thanks ... I think!

Sat here looking at your base and thinking "I could put all of the rads from my new build in the base rather than the case. Tempered glass front with steampunk theme going on... Hmmmmmmmmmm...

Fantastic build and you are in my old neck of the woods

excellent ..

ThereIs0nly0ne · 20 Sep 2016 at 19:04

Nearly done with everything now. I still need to hide the cabling underneath the desk.

Almost done with the rig as well aside from a custom PSU sticker and a touch more lighting.

Pleased with how it's turned out.

For what is essentially a box i love the effort and craftsmanship that has gone into it as it makes it so so much more! Amazing job and great skills.

My man room needs to look more like this i think.

If something's worth doing, it's worth doing right - even if it's just a glorified box!

I went on to find your destructibles page after looking at this too. Definite skills dude! The racing seat is epic.

Glad you liked the R-Pod. I had a lot of fun and definitely learned a lot with that project!
