Agreed, I think a little monetization would be nice for him and I don't really mind the ads until they start taking up the bulk of the screen.

Hello everybody!

This is my first post&build in here and I'm glad this forum is up! For this build I got sponsored by BitFenix and Finnish Jimm's PC Store :) But money is still tight but it will only slow me down a little :)
I am making the case from scratch and i'm using mainly aluminium or stainless steel.

Managed to make my first time sketchup with the components and this is how the parts will align in the case.

Current plans (Added 28.4.2013)

 
Plans can be found in Here

After a day or so i learned how to make parts in SketchUp and managed to do these





A week went by and i was able to start this project in workshop where i have helped them with computers and in return i can use their facilities, machines etc. :D

I decided to use 2.5mm aluminium for this project (This is going to be a bad decision as we notice later on) . I cut 40mm wide strips and press them into right angle and also made motherboard tray and one other plain sheet.










And yesterday I supposed to weld everything together but as I looked the machine closer it appeared to be a DC tig! I tried to get it working by just changing ground to - position but no luck there. If you didn't know, for welding aluminium tig needs to be AC so it can break the aluminium oxide layer that has melting point of 2000 °C and aluminium in common has melting point of around 600 °C . So I couldn't break that oxide layer and that means no welding with that thing. Tomorrow I'll see if I can do anything with aluminium mig and if there's no luck I'm changing material to stainless steel.

While thinking off my enigma I drilled and tapped the motherboard tray. Hole is 3mm and thread 3.5mm.








And at the end of my opening post I'll put a list of all the parts that I'm getting
