Bit of an update - 30/8/08.
Front of the original was " too busy "
Still trying to find a front panel design that i'm happy with , i've got one in mind and i'm waiting to see if it'll work.
Had one made for the front reservoir idea , but i'm going to put that on hold - going to change the tubing and barbs etc.
So i meshed off what was going to be the reservoir window.
To mount a res in the front mean't i needed to move the HDDs' from horizontal in the drive bays to some where else.
So i used some left over acrylic and some £1.00 plastic shelf corner and came up with this , mounted vertically in the front drive bays :
Fully assembled , acrylic glued to HDD and thumbscrews fitted :
^^ Excuse the dust , acrylic is a magnet for the stuff !!!
So , how it looks at the moment ( Damn , i've just noticed the fingerprints on the front , whoops ! ):
And a "dark" shot :
Thanks for reading , to be updated ......

I usually keep the hardware for the next build, and sell on the case.
I don't make any money from this, just a hobby ( an expensive one ! )
