The Intelligence - Day 11

Last night, about to install the TRUE120 on the Q9450 in the sig rig , so the project rig can have the Q6600

today, some goodies from HW store

2 3/8 holesaw, Devcon 2ton epoxy, a hammer , a round file, and a 10 inch phillips head screw driver (ham-hand issue behind true last night, dont ask )

set up my general purpose and aluminum tap fluid flasks, what a luxury this was compared to what I have been doing

ok down to business, made a holesaw jig for the 2 3/8 saw

set up some mesh

heres the cut out on the right (no pilot plunge) compared the hand-cut version from the other night

just a tad too small for the 2 1/4 fan hole
...

So I flew back across the street to the HW store and picked up a 2 1/2 holesaw, like I originally planned (but changed mind when I saw 2 3/8 was available)

made another jig for the 2 1/2

here's a cut out disk from the 2 1/2

after a tad of filing... epic win
no tape, no thumb, haha

so I started cutting out the remaining disks, on the third one there was an accident. I pulled the drill out of the jig before it stopped, the disk moved around, things went flying, luckily away from me and my junk, and I ended up with this monstrousity...

ok, carefully cut moar, thats the last one about to go

the fruits of my labor...

the top two were filed and test fitted, the bottom 4 still need filing (tomr)

before I left the shop I decided to reinforce my psu mounts with some more JB Weld. I know it looks sloppy but it will be sanded and painted so no worries




Still more a ton to do, in various genres, but I guess I will decide tomr what comes next. Thanks for watching, stay tuned
