Wooden PC Case | AC-Mark I

Hahaha I should clarify: Not smoke from a fire haha! We add smoke to still shots in our b-roll to give it a little bit more flavor!- 4 replies

Hey guys! My name is Connor, I co-own Affinity Collective which is a small time technology channel on YouTube, we use our channel to obviously create videos but also for learning. We have gotten a lot better with filming and editing techniques, but all criticism is appreciated! But lets get on to the meat and potatoes... So I had some extra wood lying around... and I had my computer... So I decided to build a computer case out of wood! To be fair it's a little rough, but for spending less then $60.00 in materials, it's pretty sweet! Watch The Video On It Here (Spoiler: Contains Some Bokehlicious B-Roll) As you'll see in the video, the case was built using 98% 1/2" Birch Plywood, and then a couple pieces of 2x4 just for a stand off inside the bottom piece. The windows are all made using some 1/4 " Acrylic I got from Lowes. I used a table saw for almost all of the cutting, and the occasional use of a band saw for some of the angled pieces. I had a belt sander I used, and then a couple of drill bits for holes. It was put together with a small brad nailer. After I sanded the final product, I gave it a Special Walnut Stain that's dark enough to look okay with all of my black peripherals, and I put a semi-gloss poly coat on it as well so it would hold up a little bit better. This was my first time building anything like this, so it was a learning process for sure... Next time I'm going to try building a more minimalist design so it'll fit more conveniently in my dorm for college. Thanks guys! **Please note** The computer is not on fire! It's just for effect for still shots in B-Roll! It makes it a bit more interesting!

I'm debating with a friend, and neither of us are sure. Could we create a redundant array by doing the following? (or this invalid?) The idea was because we found some cheap 120 gb ssd's that have decent speeds, we already have a nice samsung 240gb and were curious if that would be possible or not. |-------------------------Raid 1-------------------| |--------Raid 0----------| | [ 120 gb ssd ] [ 120 gb ssd ] [240 gb ssd]

I tried the Lynda trial starting in December, and somehow missed the 35$ payment in January, but just caught the payment from 2 days ago... I haven't used it except for the first two days of the trial. Is there anyway I can get my money back or am I out of luck? $70.00 is a lot of money to me and especially because I didn't use the service ONCE after the first two days of the trial. Thanks for any input. - Connor

I'm planning on building a rig to use as a NAS but I want my buddy from across the state to be able to access it so we can collaborate on video projects. Can I use FreeNAS and BitTorrent Sync to allow him access to the NAS? Thanks, Connor

I had the iPhone 4s, regretted it the entire time that I had it. Android is so much better. I think its more than a fair enough trade. Just make sure the phone is compatible with your carrier if you don't want to do a bunch of fancy stuff.
