But very nice design so far smile.gif... Would you mind explaining how the power for the parts will connect though? I think you may benefit from doing something similar to what he did in the "overkill" build here (ill find a link in a bit)

Ok...you can keep your hands, but I will need more than one foot. ...LOL! Just kidding. tongue.gif I will try to answer your question about the connections briefly (and I hope this makes sense).

The middle section of the case has a 10-outlet isobar on the right anf left sides of the case. Each side also has 5 AC power bricks that are plugged into the isobars. Before disassembling the case, you open a panel that provides easy access to the plugs. You then manually unplug each accessory. Immediately above and below the opening panel in the middle section is another opening panel (corresponding to the top and bottom sections).

Let's start with the opening panel in the top section ob the right side. If you open the panel and you will notice that all the cables are tied together and pass through a large hole inside. The hole leads to another hold on top of the middle section, which leads to to the area where the 10-outlet isobar is located. All you have to do is pull all of the cables from the middle section into the top section. Once all of the cables are inside the top section, you close the panel. Repeat this same process for the left side. Total time needed: 5 minutes.

The above solution is very practical and simple. All of the power cables are hidden behind closing panels. What I am now trying to figure out is whether we can add special effects to this area. thumb.gif

Thread Starter 
As of now, I'm continuing work on it May 1st. I have a few smaller projects to get out of the way first.

I have made some progress in previous months, but I have to get some more pictures together to update the build log.

Lot's of surprises though.

OCN:

Hello everyone. Later this summer I will be allocating more time to this project. Work has been so hectic that I had to put all my fun projects on-hold for a while. I am in the middle of moving to a new home, helping my parents move to their reitrement home, planning a wedding, building a new walk-in clost at my fiancee's home, all while simultaneously keeping-up with all of my additional responsibilities at my job (on top of the teaching and research I normally do). Alex has made progress on Project Voyager, but had to place this project on-hold while he spends more time expanding his business and hire more people (which is really good news). We have both have had extraordinarily busy schedules the past 5 months.

We have been working on Project Voyager (on and off) for almost 3 years now. All I can say is...good things come to those who wait. thumb.gif.

More to come...
