Side panels all glued into place

Note the little pads, these are to help me space out the top panel as to line up with the wooden sides properly. When done there will be strips the way along to help keep things quiet.




Starting to come together now:


Some nice new fans

Painting time!

I started today by setting up a area outside on the balcony with a drop sheet and tarpaulin.

I finished off a couple of things before painting. I created a bracket for my slotload DVD drive, bent the back lip on the top panel and enlarged my cable management holes on the motherboard tray to fit some rubber grommets.

I also drilled holes for my HDD brackets:

Bending


Painting:



PSU mesh before hot glueing(mind the grubby panel)


Case feet and PSU mesh:



Top fan Grill:


Grommets installed on my motherboard tray:

Sound deadening foam installed - I turned it on and had to open it up to check that all the fans were spinning - I could not hear them
