Hello everyone, i just started visiting this forum a couple of weeks ago watching case mods and worklogs and i thought i'd add mine as well.
I'll start by saying its not an original idea. I saw L3p D3sk and i thought i must have something like that. Of course i dont have al those tools and money at my disposal but i'll try and make due with what i got.
I'm about 60% done with the project and dont have assembly pics for all of it, but i have some finished pictures of what is completed. i'll start uploading and you'll see.
I made the supporting frame from rectangular steel elements 40x40x1,5 and the top is clear glass (that will probably change to something else)
The case for the pc components will be made from 8mm MDF and the motherboard tray will be made from 2mm aluminum. I started making the case from aluminum but i didnt have acces to welding tools and ended up scratching that and turning to MDF. I'll post some pics with the aluminum case that i decided to dump cause it wasnt turning out as i liked.
Components:
CPU: i5 2500K with H60 cooler.
MB: Asus Maximus IV Gene-Z
PSU: Corsair TX850
GPU: Asus GTX 560TI Direct CU II
HDD: WD Caviar Black 750gb and a WD 320gb older drive
RAM: 8GB Corsair Vengeance Black
The first pics are with some older components that I already sold.
This is the frame for the desk, i dont have any photos of the build process for this cause i didnt have my camere with me. I didnt do the welding only the painting.
