Nice grill design!

Should fit in nicely with those top bars which are quite angular

I got my templates cut out:


But I didn't get a chance to finish the fan grill since I ran out of cutting disks >.<

I did manage to install the fighter pilot switches:

I have been working constantly on this case since Saturday afternoon. I took the case completely apart and I'm going to paint the inside black and finally finish the front. I'm also going to make new side panels.

I basically have 4 places to do work at my grand parents. (Room, Back Porch, Barn and the Workshop)

I use my room for designing templates and tinkering with stuff :P It's also my break area.

Heres the new case sides:

Painted parts curing in my room


Next up is the back porch which isn't too far from my room. I setup a desk so I can strip paint and drill holes here.


Then I gotta walk to the barn to get to the next 2 places. In the open area of the barn I have my painting area. I finished the handles, front panel, and even painted some red rivets




Right next to the open area is a workshop where I'm doing my dremel and metal work.

I got everything back together and I only have a few more things left to paint. Right now the mod is on pause since I have to concentrate on school work and such :P

Here's a pic of what the case looks like right now:

I got my new red led's wired up to the switches. Unfortunately if I wire it so the light on the switch comes on when on, it dims the leds, so I excluded the switch leds It still looks really awesome and the wires are not all over the place. I also took out the blue leds in the power supply.


Working on the wiring


It's a bit blurry because the focus function on the camera only works with flash, which would not show the awesome red glow :P
