back from the dead with a small update...

The Intelligence - Day 03

Made a nice atx mobo template out of acrylic and bam, cracked it drilling the holes No problem, still useable, its on the non-business end anyway. Ill glue it tomr I needed an acurate mobo template with the holes, and the abilty to see thru it - acrylic to the rescue

tested it out in an atx case to make sure the drill holes were right etc. all ok

used the template to recreate my last tests. everything still checks out level and ok

got the goop ready (JB Weld)
I sanded the case spot and the rails you see facing up with 400, then cleaned with iso 91%, and let it dry 15 minutes

mixed equal parts, or there abouts , of the goop

used a plastic card to "trowel it onto the rails of the u-channel, then stuck it to the case. No turning back now...

(ps Repo, it was NOT runny, it was like TAR! lol)

it cures in 4 hours but I'll set it overnight and check in the morning


If all goes ok with that, and it passes the stress test tomr morning, then I will mount the other two bases and begin on seating the upper rails (threaded screws + some jb weld). From there let the case cutting begin - muha!

thanks for watching
