NazzzF reacted to Mooshi in What are "gamers" doing????
Eh..the "gamer" label doesn't mean anything anymore. Someone who flings birds at pigs on their tablet is considered a gamer these days. No reason to care about any of this, it all means nothing.

NazzzF reacted to TheSLSAMG in Will I get taller?
Yeah, I didn't need to know that about a 15 year old.
Don't worry about your height. I am 5'8" and I am shorter than many of my friends, but don't let it get to you. You will probably grow more, but I think you should remove the part about your penis.

The Bitfenix Spectre Pro Copper Edition
I'll let the pictures do the talking for the most part.
I hung the frames on a thread (still had to rearrange them to cover all the angles).

The masking took about two and a half hours for all fans...
(click image for full res)
...because I had the genius idea to paint them both front and back, even though
nobody will ever see the back side again, ever. But the perfectionist inside me
just wouldn't shut up. You can also see that I desoldered the wires. Considering
how close together the contacts are on the PCB that's going to be a bitch to solder
back on. Ah well...

First coat of copper paint applied. The paint I'm using is Weicon Copper Spray.
The copper colour comes from actual copper particles (so, it's a metal spray, not
just something that looks like copper). The upside: It's copper! The downside:
It's conductive (most likely, I don't have a multimeter to test this, but I doubt
the epoxy matrix in which the copper particles are embedded serves as a good
enough insulator to make it non-conductive).
I found the paint on eBay, if you google "Weicon copper paint" you should be able
to find more info on it.

Aaand we're done. To be perfectly honest, the paint job could be improved upon.
But considering I don't have a spray booth and practically all imperfections are
well hidden when they're mounted I'm still very happy with the results. I'll
definitely change my procedure though if I ever do this again. It's a learning
process.
Also, to prevent the paint from tarnishing, I gave all the painted parts a clear
coat for protection.

Well, at least the masking did its job.

I also painted the hex bolts for mounting the fans. They also have a clear coat.

That's it for today. Next: Re-wiring the fans.

Yay!
EDIT:
Just an FYI for people having troubles installing YouTube Center, this is what I did. On the GitHub link under the Chrome and Opera section, I downloaded the Mirror and manually added it to Chrome in settings->extensions (drag and drop). I tried some other ways before this, and this is the way that worked for me.

OK:
Prototype: Bitfenix Spectre Pro Copper Edition
This is just a prototype. The fan is very annoying to take apart and before I do this
with all the rest of them I need to make sure the process doesn't damage the bearing
or anything like that. So: testing.
But, in the meantime, I thought I'd present you with this:
