RE - bending.

 

It's far, far easier than that dude. Just get a work bench, clamp the acrylic in on the bend line and then heat it with a heat gun and bend it that way.

no heat gun on hand bro. i've been thinking of that since i already have a work bench, but unfortunately, i don't have a heat gun and heat gun here is a bit expensive, so i need to think of other ways to solve the problem. :) but anyways, thanks for the idea.

Looking good! That bending setup is beyond ghetto.

 

I like the position of the reservoir, what are the other positions that you are thinking of switching it to?

thanks man. i was thinking of putting it like this.

but my problem is, coolant is hard to see. :P location of harddrive will be put inside the shroud.
