1 side finished. I will be making one huge update and deleting everything i have done so far today and putting it in 1 big post later.

All that was done with 1 cutting blade. My technique is getting better.

Thank you! Both sides are cut out now. Next I am moving along to the front where the fan mounts and the front panel in front of the fan. Once I do that, I will be putting the dremel away for an indefinite amount of time. This has been a blast so far. I did end up changing blades halfway through the second side, not because I used it all, I just used enough to not permit the proper cutting angle and the cuts started to look funny.

Glad the tips helped you not burn through those cutting discs

The design looks sweet!

Here comes more hotness. ( AS SOON AS PHOTOBUCKET GETS ITS ACT TOGETHER)
There was so much dust and so many metal shavings on the case when I got done, I decided to wash it completely off along with the table I am using since the table will double as a painting table tomorrow. I am redoing the inside of the case. This time, it won't be any fancy dancy paint, probably just some Rust Oleum Universal. I am going to sand it down and rewash it here in a little bit.

Edit - I just went ahead and uploaded the non-resized originals for now. I will do a proper upload later.

It came out much better than I could have hoped for. Today, I plan on painting the inside and the mesh then reassembling everything tonight. I need to find my staple gun for an idea I have. I'm only having some trouble deciding what color to redo the inside with. It will not be the bronze I used before. That was not durable at all.

If the bronze was not durable, you should have put some clear coat over it. It will put a protective layer over the paint. Some paints just aren't meant for alot of wear and tear,lol.


And file those cuts before you paint too! I know I have some uneven cuts on the side panel for Phoenix and everytime I look at the panel I see them, bothers the crap out of me I didn't file them.

As soon as I'm done with this module for school I will bust out the dremel with the grinding stone and go crazy.
