Butcher's Hook - Day 11 - mobo plate & mobo pan work
package from Perf-pcs. me hates the popcornz!
so I saved it to ship back to them. (j/k)
ok lets check what we haz...
green led fan fro Greenie-poo (replacement)
ok now for hook project...
2 bulgin ring led switches, 1 red one white
mnpctech alu feet
Lian Li mobo pan (alu) same exact one I used on intelli, speaking of intelli...
went and robbed some parts
mobo,mem,cpu and hdd, basically all cpu stuff from it
mounted mobo in pan
used it to mark off cut lines, but before cutting, needed to finish up something
set up a grinding station by the door. I made friends with the supermarket guy by my job, scored some milk crates
such cool universal objects they are. Can be used for countless things, anyway...
ground out the hdd plate welds from the last time. look much better now
(yes its still attached
)
ok, now to cut mobo pan down to size
slow going, 2 sides done
after all three
lined it up to the steel sheet that will be the mobo plate, marked off the overhang with a black sharpie
clamped the plate and set up a fence for cutting, I didnt need scars on this thing
about 40 mins later....... clank.
need a better steel sheet cutting setup than the dremel, seriously, seriously.
there's the parts
realigned them and clamped them. wanted to score thru the mobo pan with a 7/64" to mark the mobo plate where the stand offs will go
marked, ready for drill press 7/64", then will be tapped 6-32
stopped there, needed food and a video game or two.
tomr I will drill out the plate and tap it, the drill out the mobo pan with 9/64" to let 6-32 mobo standoffs pass thru. I think the double-stack thing shold look cool. I can always get taller standoffs for the plate level If I need more wire hiding area.
anyway, more tomr. Thanks for watching
