10 points to Griffindoor! (I don't even watch Harry Potter)

It is like a black hole of awesomeness... I get lost in it too!

 

Just so you guys know, I post non-update worthy quick in-progress shots on my Facebook page, and try to put them together and make these updates. So come and check it out if you already haven't :)

 

Best regards,

Justin.

I tested out some measurements after putting in the the motherboard plate with attached extension. Man this thing is long! My bend was of by a couple of degrees, so I re bent and it fit perfectly!!
 
So, I will just leave these here..

Hello again modders and enthusiasts!
 
Today we are taking a look at the top of the TJ07, where the mesh is usually located. I hoping to improve it's looks and style, while still keeping the look classic. Let's see what I have done!
 
 Here is what it usually looks like:

And here is what I did to try improve it:

With this update, I am very happy to say that I am organizing to have some acrylic sheets run through a CNC mill, to bevel down the edges of each window. This will make the acrylic sit flush with the outside, and yet still be fasted underneath the panel. Once I have some more info, I will let you know!
 
I hope you enjoyed this update :)
 
Best regards,

I like that you're keeping the shape of the bend from the inside consistent with that window.  I'm guessing that's the intention :)

Outstanding

Thank you Forsaken!

I thought too that it was NZXT style. But I like it regardless as the slanted line follows the res plate, giving full view of the res and other hardware :)

Sure is mate!!

 

I am super happy with the results! I can't wait to cut the side panel in a few days!

Between you, Snef and p0pe I just want to throw money to the wind and build a new system.

 

I think I might rebuild my HTPC, an e8400 Shuttle. Lookout!

 

You forget Alpenwasser and likely a lot of other people here who make amazing stuff! :]

What would you guys think of a unibody design for the front of the case 5.25" bays, like found on a Murderbox MKII?

Hey modders and enthusiasts!

 

Just a nice and short update for you tonight. The paint is dry on the GPU shrouds, and I have screwed everything together. I can HIGHLY recommend to anyone that wants to personalize their PC that little more with painting their own GTX770/780/780ti/Titan/TitanBlack shroud! I am very pleased with how they turned out :)

And one more thing, I have sanded back the LEDs so they no longer shine green, but rather shine the stock white LED instead ;)

 

What do you think? Hit or miss?

Best regards,

Justin "MetallicAcid" Ohlsen

Hey Gluten!!

 

I am actually Australian,but I live in Sweden. I have only just learnt the swedish language, but I can actually read and understand what you wrote!! I am stoked!

 

Ok, I am not sure what Norwegian stores there are, but I was able to find the Montanacans.no website where you can order from if you want the same effect! Just make sure that you clearcoat it so they are more durable ;)

 

I hope you understand my English :P Thanks for reading!
