Hello guys!!
 
Long time fan of LTT here, but only just now that I had the guts to register and post my first thingy.
 
Project name: Custom Desktop case for a music studio.
 
After some long nights of brainstorming, we decided upon modding a Bass drum.
This is what a bass drum looks like for those who didn't know.
 

 
After looking around for some references of already built ones, i was left very unsatisfied with the only few models already done. they were too random, too 'un-wow'-ish
 
On with it
 
First, to study how this bass drum actually fit together, 'pre-mod'. Pretty basic. a empty wood cylinder from inside, with two platic sheets with a metal cap, pressed by another bigger metal cylinder.
 
After sketching some incomprehensible stuff on some old napkin lying around,  

 
How to reproduce that cover thing, while keeping the aspect of the bass drum? i decided to keep the black metal cylinder, but recreate the other piece with Plexiglas. I drew two cylinder, one to fit in the metal cylinder, and the other as larger edge below it, for the metal cylinder to bite on and push it into position.
 
Designed them on Autocad
 

 
then forward to the bookshop to lazer cut these babies 
 

 
So, for the covers, the back one i did a full opaque black Plexiglas, with a hole for a 23mm fan

 
the front one i went for a tinted back one to give a nice look when the led's inside would go on

(yea, i forgot the S on productions. going to have to add it as vinyl sticker later on... perks of designing stuff at 4am...)
 
Now, onto the case specifics. I wanted the whole build to have some kind of cool 'futuristic' aspect, and didn't want to just screw the parts all around the edges of the case. so I went and installed 2x 3mm metal vertical stems in the middle of the case, screwing them both sides with bolts and cutting off the remaining length .

 
P.s: That's NOT me  just a friend helping out with the heavy work ^.^ 
 
I needed some parts from an actual case, such as the Motherboard back plate, and the HDD tray, so i went and bought the cheapest 'modular' case I could find.
That's before

 
and that's after

 
to save some space and make it look even better, i screwed the HDD tray on the back of the back plate, to get to this  
 

 
and since the self-levitating PSU has not yet been invented (sadly  ) i had to come out with one extra piece of design to support the PSU. Another piece of Plexiglas that i had to hold on top of the fire for around 15 minutes to be able to bend it... damn 5 mm thickness...
 

 
i screwed it on the back plate just where the PSU would usually be.
Then i added some RGB led strips to the back of the case

 
and the rest was just getting all the pieces together, for a result of:


 
Hope you guys liked 
Really hope i posted it on the right section/topic of the forum... this one bugs me quite a lot
Waiting for your comments

i just got tested positive for covid 19, AKA da big C. AKA Big 'Rona, AKA help me i cannot taste anyting anymore.
pls fold for me lads.

I created a spreadsheet to satisfy my curiosity about a few things, it shows each days points and weekly points totals for everyone. I thought I would share it for anyone who might be interested. This spreadsheet is done by me as an individual not as part of the 2020 folding month team, I'll be the one that keeps it updated and make any changes to it, so if you have a problem with it shout for me not for GOTSpectrum or any else. The sheet will be updated each day shortly after the daily updates are done.

A short blogpost due to me feeling unwell, hopefully it passes in short order
 
 

This is my fist folding month, i Did the covid event and maybe the summer sprint, I have the bad memory, but I have 1060 and a P-106 that are pretty much 24/7 anyway
 
 

Thanks, I'm in the sweet position that My electric is included in my rent so i don't have to worry about bill spikes, I just Wish i could use that advantage with some better Hardware ha
