I have this roll of "carbon fiber" self-adhesive plastic (peel-n-stick). I used it for the G15 carbon fiber mod and had some left over.

I'm very curious as to how well the UV light mod you did would look on a case window if you could make it clear, I'll have to try it if I ever get started modding my case.
Hi, Brutuz

Do you mean the window is clear?

I'll try to remember to post a pic once I get to the stage of mounting windows to take a picture of a clear panel held in place.

...emphasis on, "try"... memory leak and all....

I worked on mounting the front panel this evening, and getting a feel for how the radiator windows will sit in the frame.

I will need to go get some hardware tomorrow as what I have here will not do.

Oh well... I surely can not complain about wandering the aisles of a hardware store...

Say, that would be cool: Carbon fiber fans!

Kinda, the more I delve into troubleshooting the problem, the more peculiar it becomes. As of late, it has decided to power on in 3 second cycles. It's kind of a game, guessing what the next boot sequence will be like. I'm convinced this board is possessed. And if there are blanks where there should be words, my bro's computer is being annoying and censoring words. Btw, when I was out at the miramar airshow today, I noticed the my lens hood was carbon fiber! Pretty trippy stuff.

I mean the Window has a clearer version of that stuff used to make the UV lights look like bubbling lava on it, I think that would look really nice in a blue/ocean themed case mod, No need to really remember it, I'll probably forget all about this by the time I can actually do it, school pushes everything that's actually worth something out of my mind!

McStuff, I hope you get your mobo up and running.



Brutuz... it would seem we have something in common.... erm.... what was I going to say...? ...oh yeah... my memory sucks.

Ah. I see what you mean now. If you have not already seen TribalOverkills thread, he has a reservoir that is nothing short of astounding... actually all his reservoirs fall into said category.

As for your potential modding and education; it may seem a burden now, but school at any level is really important.... trust me on that one.

Default Update: 10.05.08

Front panel and hinges:


Here are the finial hinges that I got so many moons ago. There was a short section way back when that played with the idea of making my own hinges, and I did just that. The problem was how bulky and awkward they were, clearly not ideal for the ambiance that I was trying to create.

These are much more Gothic (Gaudi gothic, not emo-gothic):

note: The Sagrada Familia is AMAZING!






They needed a felt pad on the sides that meet with the acrylic panel:





Mounting and test-fitment:









Ensuring that there is the proper clearance for everything that I forgot or did not think about:








A test-fit with one of the 480 radiators:

note: The front panel is black acrylic like the sides, but the panel that holds the radiator and mounts to the front panel is bronze acrylic. It is my hope that this will provide a "windowed-frame" around the radiators that will give the observer a small glimpse of what lies behind, and allow some of the vermilion light to shine through.... *hopes*







So far all the parts are lining up fairly well. There is a slight off-square element somewhere, but I have not delved into it to find where it is, or if I can remedy it.... that's for another day.

I'm almost at the point of offering to pay you to stay home and finish this build, instead of going to work.
Awesome.

My word, everytime I see those big 480 rads I go You really can't put enough heat in a rig to justify two of those can you? :P

*But aye, this is OCN, as Syr has said it 'the mecca of digital debauchery. over the top is our creed!' *

Looks good bro. Are/were you trying to put the gas struts on this panel, the one with the rads? You could perhaps get some small struts used for the automotive arena? I think it could be do-able. You might be able to mount the keepers for the struts past the rad's on a acrylic standoff of sorts. PM me if any of my rambling makes sense of you might want me to elaborate on it,lol.
