so this build log probably wont "take off" until mid October because im waiting to buy stuff until the case becomes available. but the desk might get made sooner as i am cleaning out my office area this weekend 

[pagani123]

also i sent my father the plans for the desk and he advised me against building this desk because if i move it might not work because of the weird angle that it is at i will probably still be building a desk just not the one above 

[pagani123]

so 2 new ideas for desk but i probably wont be building them because it would take to long (i dont have a table saw at my house). so im looking for a desk that looks similar to this

 

or this

[pagani123]

ok so this build log is going to be put on hold for a little while some unplanned expenses

Ups said it would be delivered Thursday but took them an extra day

[pagani123]

Atm I am taking everything out and putting it in the new case but the site or my phone is acting up and won't let me upload pictures so I'll post all the pictures later

[pagani123]

well that was a very annoying process but its finally done  i had to drive all the way to microcenter from the city to get a coolermaster v8 air cooler because my corsair h100i decided to leak and screw up the entire thing

[pagani123]

so here are the pics
