So, I was looking around the forums and started getting jealous of other people's cable management jobs. I also noticed everyone seems to have a dremel... except me.

So what did I do? I spent 50$ on a dremel and went to my garage for some fun. Whilst removing things form my computer, I also figured "Why not lap my CPU?" I have some 2400 grit, 2600 grit, and a nice batch of 3000 grit sandpaper My dad works for Lymon Morse, a very nice boatyard here in Maine, building sailboats (really nice ones!), so he has a lot of really fine sandpaper lying around. Anyway, my arm got tired before I could finish the lapping, but It was still much better than it was. Here's the pictures, enjoy

Lapped (Almost) X2 4600+:



New Holes (Crude cuts, I know, I have shaky hands and it was the first time using a dremel ):




All Together Again:
TIE WRAPS ARE YOUR FRIEND




I'm saving for a big build right now, so I'll be creating a nice worklog on that whilst it is happening Not for a while though.

Great work!!!

I have a Tsunami, cable management is definitely a pita.

Get a rounded eide cable, look alot cleaner.

One more thing, reverse your HDD and run the cables in the front.
