Ye I've grown on the stain too.
I was a bit up in the air, but it matches my TV unit so well.

And my missus is well happy with the stain so that's good in my books.

I didn't think that this build could get much better - then I saw the copper piping.

I'm not sure what the next thing up on the scale from "loath and envy" is, but I just flew past that without even so much as pausing for breath.

You have a beautiful desk computer. Now you are going to have a truly breathtaking rig in that desk. I wish I had your resources and creativity.... and skills to deliver.

Many congratulations on this epic build. I look forward to your next update(s)

Haha thanks man, I appreciate the kind words :)

Altho I'm not going to be upgrading my gaming rig, at least not for a little while after this haha.
