What is that big yellow tank thing? Generator or something?

Brilliant idea for cutting straight lines! I might use that!

Hmm, I thought all Lian Li's had removeable MoBo trays.

Looking good, interested to see how it turns out.

I have been looking for a deal on a Lian Li HTPC case, but I just can't quite justify the cost to the wife (yet).

The anti-kink hose with a nozzle end is hanging up there. I just hang it up there because I would rather reach right above my head for it than bend down to grab it off the ground.

4th Update : Tuesday August 11th, 2009 *BIG UPDATE!*

Well I had the day off of work so I figured I would get done with as much as possible today. My real fans come in tomorrow so EVERY fan you see tonight is only there as a place holder. First on the to-do list was a bottom mounted blow hole :








Second on the list for the day was getting the MCR-220 cut out and internally mounted :






Finally, as everyone knows the PSU cooling is terrible for this case. I wanted to make a breather for the bottom mounted PSUs but I did not want to get rid of the support tab which holds up the back half of the PSU. So I busted out some sketches and a dremel and here is what happened : (Obviously the triangles were created on purpose with different sizes in mind. I wanted an artsy look)








I mounted all the main hardware just so you guys could get an idea. Obviously I need to bust out the sanding wheel and file and get the rest of the hardware. But I wanted to 'rough' set it up so you could see where this is going...







...we all have to sleep, even our mods :


Thats all for today folks! Thanks for tuning in!

Very nice
I like the PSU vent.
Everything looks very professional . Will you be having a radgrill on the top?
Although I don't envy you getting the tubing in there, lol.
