Hoping there'll be an update soon-ish, mate!
Things are going good. weekends are always bad for the build. I usually have other things to do then work on the computer. I havent really done much, because I ran out of sleeving. So I have to order more. I plan on doing a little work tonight. So I might have a mini update!

Later

Hey no problem! Hopefully some of what I said was actually useful. I actually plan on doing a bit more painting tonight myself. I plan on painting the rollable stand, USB slot thing and the audio slot thingy.

Kyle, I'll be down in Indy Friday night (probably just going to get a hotel), and Saturday, or the IPD's Oral Interview tutoring (said in the letter that it's strongly advised that you attend, read : Attend or it will hurt you opportunity to employment on the department..LOL),

So, yea, you going to be busy on Saturday? I'll stop by again and say hey if you're not busy!

Update Time!!!!



Cube Worlds Dudes Rock!!! Got them on black friday at TOys R Us on Sale!! Whoohooo

So today I decided to paint my USB and Audio PCI Slot thingy's. and also my rollable stand for the case. (had to comprimise with the wife that if the case had to go on the floor, I wanted a stand!)

So here is the PCI thingy's



USB Slot thingy


Audio Thingy


Now I am preppeing them for painting. I took off the front plates, and gave them a little rub down with some fine grain sandpaper.




Taping off for painting! yeeehaaaw!



Warming up all the cans of stuff. If they are warm, the paint comes out of the can easier. You can also boil some water then sit the can in that for 5 minutes or so...It makes painting so much easier.!



Primier on the PCI slot doodads



and finally painted and clear coated.
These pics are with the flash on. It really brings out the metallic sparkles in the paint. dont know why it was so hard to see on painting the chassis. I used the same paint and stuff....maybe different lighting?







and here is with the flash off...you can see just how black the paint really is.





Now here is the rollable case
Its a pretty cheap kit to make your case rollable and lift it off the floor.




I gave the stand a light buffing as well so the paint would stick.



Primed.





Thats it for tonight. Tomorrow I will finish the stand and maybe find other stuff to work on till I get the rest of the sleeving.

Peace Out!

I should've guessed that you'd paint the stand...
Hope the paint 'sticks' to that plastic!
