The Case out of the Box


Ok so this is a forum not play school so we all know how to use a screw driver



And A Drill




Nice PSU and no braiding to be done so there is 3 weeks saved or the money to pay PEXON :)


We all like sexy feet ....... or is that just me :p



Building has commenced










Some Hardware Porn





Right that is all we have for now but this will be updated again later tonight once I have got to the Cabin of Mods and done something with tools that make noises and lots of mess :)

The Lamptron Vandal Switch Installed

Hello again folks as I will not be using the original side panels I have had to use a Lamptron Vandal Switch for the On/Off Button So I took the center line from the BitFenix Logo and used a 19mm Wood Bit to make the hole





Braided the Lamptron Switch with E22 Teleios Fusion Green and Black





Installed the Front Rad



Fans wired up to a PWM board that is tucked away and will be covered with some acrylic to in fill and keep everything clean.


That's all for now folks :)
 
The Glowing Floor Panel

Hello again Folks I not done as much as I had hope to today but got something I am happy with. I will be needing some more LED Strips if that is OK BitFenix? ;)
So I took some 5mm Frosted White Acrylic sheet and cut a new floor panel for the front:


Used some off cuts of 3mm sold white Acrylic and Installed a BitFenix White Aqua Strip:


This is the outcome:






This little project looks like it will take a few more days due Got a few other bit of custom work to go into this before I can get the loop installed.

Let me know what you think so far bye for now :)
 
What you cutting the acrylic with ? I had great fun recently cutting custom panels for my build.... NOT :(

With a Jigsaw and fine metal blade I am in need of a new one so a trip to Screw fix is on the card in the morning.

If you set up a straight edge like in the 1st pic in the last update it makes it easier :)
 
Wow, stunning, its builds like this that are making me seriously consider a smaller form factor for my next PC...
