Here is a little update.

I am still cleaning up the wires. I am done sleeving everything and have the bottom false floor in hand and ready to go. still have to drill a few holes, but its aboutready for installation. I cant really do to much until I get the toggle switches for the lights. Thats the last of any wiring that I have to do. The toggle switches should be here any day now. I got them on ebay and they are coming from Germany. I got a really good deal on them. They have blue LED's on the end!! Schweet!

If anyone is interested I will give you the ebay info via Paypal.

I got 6, but so far only have plans for 5 of them. They will be used to turn on/off my lights and el sata cables. I plan on putting them in the back of the case where the 4 WC holes are, but I will have to drill one more.

I cant attach the false floor/wall until I have the wiring 100% complete. So they still arent on. I made 3 prototypes which I will show you.

here is the false floor in to test fit.

Here is the first trial. Just a rectangle piece.

1.

2. The second attempt. This one has two holes drilled in it for the two wires from the USB pci slot. and the front of the palte is bent at a 45 degree angle. I have a UV CCLF in front that the light will get reflected up.!

I havent taken pics of the third plate, but its identical to the second plate, just wide. front to back. If you look closey at the 2nd plate above. You will see there is about an inch gap between the plate and the mobo. I wanted it to be tighter. The final revision has about 3/8" gap. so its really close.

One other thing I have been putting off and finally did, was get the el sata wires put together. I had to shorten the wires going from hte sata cords to the power boxes, and then put them all in one sleeved strand.

Wires cut

Showing all 4 el sata cables

Power boxes cut off

This small section of heat shrink was to hold them all together so I could work with them more easily.

all the shortened wires put back together and almost finished sleeving.

All done!

All lit up

So as soon as the toggle switches get here I can wrap up the false walls and the lighting and move on to another section of the project.

If anyone is interested that owns an armor, I have a bit of diamond plate aluminum left that I can cut a few more of the false walls. I can drill holes in them if you want. You just need 6 of the Thermaltake standoffs. and some screws. PM me for more info if your interested. I have the template for teh holes on the mobo tray for an armor which makes for easy mounting. I will charge a minimal fee pretty much to cover shipping. and for you overseas guys, I will be happy to ship to you as well, just cover the extra shipping costs. But I can only make about 4-5.

Thats all for now!
