Anyone know if you can still get this case?

I know it's old, but maybe a few around.

I tried a google but not much out there.

Please PM me if supplier not UCUK
 
There's one on the bay, local pick up from Lancs, bidding starts at £15.

Do I sense another carboot-esque mod coming on?
 
Why?

Why!!!

Cos it's got potential that's why. Cos it's just screeming to have the twangers modded off it.

Oh don't get me wrong i agree think that in it's stck form it looks a little like a high tech porta-loo but it really does have some space and room to play.

Thinking more high end than car boot this time.

Seen the one on the bay, but it's miles from where I am.
 
It will take some serious modding to stop it looking like a bread/pedal bin but looking t your other builds mate - I'm sure it'll look fine ;)

Cheers W3bbo.

I think i'll have to spend a good amount of time just looking it over. I don't know about you, but the inspiration and planning stage of a mod can take just as long as the mod itself, and even then inspiration hits you as you progress and things change.

I also currently have another couple of old cases in the garage that I go and stare at for a while every now and again assuming that at somepoint inspiration will hit me. Although if I buy a Mozart it's quite likely that mrs Dubs will hit me.

I'm just winding up the Liquid Skeleton project at present but know I'll want to get my teeth into something else soon.

Why not try and get one of those massive server cases? They are prime for modding

i've got my eyes open for one of those also, problem is I don't know any brand names which makes searching hard. there's plenty of new ones around but they cost the best part of a Kidney.

I did see one on the modding threads that looks rather nice. basically I just want something HUGE to play with.
 
Holy sheet...

Is this it?

Looks like R2D2's retarded cousin to me but each to there own...

Surely you could make something better from scratch?
 
Yeah that's the one. I fancy a bit of a challenge and have always enjoyed modding marginal cases e.g. the stuff i've done with the Skeleton.

I don't quite know what I plan to do with it, but I promise you it won't look anything like it's normal appearance when i'm done with it.

Just a shame I can't find one close to home, as posting something that's the same size as postman Pat's van is not really an option.
 
I think it has massive potential, but that's mainly due to the size.

Just because it isnt pre drilled to fit big RADs doesn't mean that it cant be made to fit em.

Just think of it as a blank canvas with some bits already taken care off, i for one haven't got a full workshop to make a case.

Great minds think alike. I'm thinking big Water, perhaps even something custom in the way of the actual plumbing. Perhaps even something Steampunk who knows. As I said before a good deal of the time modding is spent thinking what to do to make it special.

It's about the size of a small child.

That's a bit concerning, did you look for that image to give scale or did it just happen to pop up when you searched?

Try to mod a mini fridge into it or something

I like the cut of your gib sir.
Actually just thought a fridge built in is a real possibility as a quirky idea, but instantly thought about using it as part of the cooling loop

Mmmmmm.....ideas....
 
Dont think a fridge is a good idea to be honest,
I have a mini fridge (carlsberg one that holds 42 cans) and although it keeps my beers frosty, the top and back of it gets pretty hot,

not something id have thought would be good in a case,
