From now on the pictures from today are a little lacking becuase i had either two options: take a picture after every weld or just take a couple and i dont want five pages of welding pictures...

Probably one of the blurriest photos ive ever taken but heres getting ready to make the first couple of welds

Little preview of one of the layers:

Now i have to bevel all the edges so i can weld everything together:

All the pieces together:

And finally the 9"ers are done

12"ers done

16"ers done

Hey Everyone! Recently i decided that i needed a new project due to boredom, the first thing that i looked at was my awfully un-attractive case under my desk. Due to the price of cases going up and up even though they are getting really awesome alot of cases have tons of stuff that i dont need at all. So i decided that I should build by own case just for fun... Im just a broke teen so at this point in time the hardware for the project isnt extreme at all but hopefully in a few months i will be able to upgrade. Im actually going to attemp to get a sponsorship by some companies so that i can provide the coolest build log that i possibly can. So without anymore rambling from me lets get right into this build.. Like i said i dont have much for hardware at this point in time but in the future im hoping to have these components for this build: HDD: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16822136533 SSD: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16820147192 CPU: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16819116501 GPU: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814130782 Ram: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16820233256 Mobo: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813131830 OS: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16832116986 PSU: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16817139016 Fans: 120mm: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16835553005 140mm: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16835553007 CPU Waterblock: http://www.ekwb.com/shop/blocks/cpu-blocks/ek-supremacy-nickel.html GPU Waterblock: http://www.ekwb.com/shop/blocks/vga-blocks/fc-geforce/geforce-gtx-6x0-series/ek-fc670-gtx-nickel.html Reservoir: http://www.ekwb.com/shop/reservoirs-and-acc/reservoirs/ek-res-x3-150.html Pump: http://www.ekwb.com/shop/pumps-and-accessories/pumps/laing-d5-pump-12v-mcp-655.html Radiator: http://www.ekwb.com/shop/ek-coolstream-rad-xtc-280.html There is three different sizes of angle iron that i have to cut 16", 12", and 9" Prep Shot ( I know wicked blurry i'm not a photographer)

This build gets more amazing with every update. Can't wait to see some progress!

watching build logs of custom cases is so much more interesting, cant wait to see so more progress. Hopefully i can do something like this in the near future, ill have to make some mock-up sketches

wow! all the little details really make this thing pop. love the way the HDD's look

once the border is on that side panel this thing will look like perfection.

the custom sheild looks awesome, you should try to focus some light on that so it pops out a little more than it does. It's kind off hiding right now

Can't wait to see some progress on this :) great things to come

Thanks for doing this giveaway linues :) good luck to all
