I am back .

Yes still playing with my cncrouter. But it is for this build.

I made a 24 pin wallmount.

Wath do you think about the color pattern for my deskbuild.

I still can change colors but i thought to use the ROG colors red and black.

Somone asked me if i can make a wallmount for the Cable Comb "closed version".







Wath do you think!

Thanks bart, Doing my best and learned a lot the past few years.

I made new drawings today for the open Version of the cable combs that i need for connecting 2 pci-express cables together.
The are different because i need to disconnect the cables from each other when i need to. The closed ones are for the cables itself.

Made a few big 24 pins cable combs this evening that i want to use in combination with the 2mm ones..
I know pictures say more then words.

A few hours in a evening are quick gone.
Lets sie what tommorow brings.

This wil more then enough for the build.
Ha ha the only job that i dont like so much is to polish them on the machine, pffff ages.



So the color patern wil be the one in the above posted picture.

Ill be back soon.

Thursday "weekend for me". Next shift is nex wednesday so i have som time for making parts. Yesterday evening i made a few 5mm Cable Combs for my extension cables. This evening i finished putting dp tape on the small wallmounts. And i polished a new part and put it on to see if it looks oke. The diameter of the holes are 4mm. I want to use the 5mm in combination with the 2mm ones.
I hope eyou like them "i do".









A friend told me that the are 2 pound one e-bay. And 14 uk pound for a extension cable. That is cheap.
But this is fun also

More plans for today but i only manage to do one. Stil loving to work with the machine and play with the software.
What have whe not don today:
- mounted the small wallmounts in the pedestels;
- making a new extension cable. (thanks Ali for the info).
But i am in no hurry.
I screw up on holder by using to high rpm on my spindle. So the edge of the drill holes and the hole where i put the small mount in where burnt.
Shi....... hapens. Time to spend more time on this material.
The engraving is super 0,3mm depth and sharplooking.
For the drill holes i just for the first time the peckdrill option.
And for the Contour lines and the hole where i place the mount in i used soapwater in a spraycan.
The edges are sharp.

the way i use this tool:
picture one:
- place the plate against the wall and drill the holes.
the holes are always at the same height;



picture 2:
- place a wallmount in the mall and place it against the wall;
- put 2 screws in and remove the mall.





Now whe have to see if it works. ?

Wife hasent call me for coffee that means i stil have a few minutes to work on my desk.

I lay down on my flat face to get access inside the pedestel.
The pictures telling the rest.

I just drilled the first 2 holes and removed the mall to have a look.
O not bad. Lets see if i can get the M3stainless steel screws in.



I flip the mall 180 degrees and place the wallmount after i pull of the protection tape on the back where i also put a peace off dp-tape.



Unless you have a 20 cm height elephant that can pull of the mount you can not get the mount off the wall.
I drild a 2,5mm hole and the screws are 3mm. No need to put tread in the inbustool make the screw go in to the end. Super tide.



I manage to put on 3 mounts and drild the holes for the 4e mount.



More tommorow i think "wife calls for coffee".

Ill be back tomorrow.

Ha ha i thought i cleant the panels. But on the pictures stil acrylic dust on it.
So today i mounted the main power cables in the side walls of the two pedestels. i had to cut a piece out at the back on the picture you see a blank spot. But that is already made black.
After the powercables i want to make the two front windows in the pedestels. In honor of my sponsors Bitspower and Thermaltake i made two windows with their logo in it.
I cant wait until i light up the fans inside the pedestels.
For that i have to make 2 extra extension cables in front of the pedestels. I want to make them tomorrow .
A few crapy pictures. ? Sorry

The routing from the powercable to the back. The blank spot is already black like the rest.
Happy with the result. And finaly som work finished.



For honor the two main sponsors i make a front window in the pedestels with their logo in it.
The router is runnint 10.000 rpm.



Work in progress.



The window panels are 8mm clear acrylic.
I dont make the logo's to big because i want to see inside when the fans light up.





And the right window "Thermaltake".



I am going to work on the spillter powercables (also in the pedestels) tomorrow to connect a few PA2's and the Aquero 6 pro.

Ill be back.

New 24 pins extension cables.

I got up early this morning 07:15 hour. Time enough you think. It is now 18:24 and i just finished the updates on my fb - page.
What have i don i think !!! .

These two cables cost me at least a few hours work. Most of the time went in to polishing the Cable Combs on the polishing machine.
I am happy that i finished them in the right colors this time.
biggrin.gif


Because i want them to be as good as posible i asked my friend Shaukat Ali for the right length of wires for these extension cables.
Afte making som wires without the pins on it i put them in to the connectors to see if the dimensions are oke.



Now that i know that the dimensions are the right one i can start cutting wires.

Much time going in to the polishing job of the Cable Combs. I want them to shine so that meaning a few hours polishing for the two cables.



Thes two are finished.







Time to make the pci express cables.

Bussy bussy,

Wires for the pci-express extension cables cut. But i did not start to make them today.
Modification on the dimensions of the countersink screwhole taking much of my time.
And i made a new bunch of them.
Time flies when you having fun i guess.

I also made a new type Cable Comb for the pci-express extension cables also.
Now i have to polish them then i can start making new cables.

On the front of the cable a 5mm Cable Comb and behind that thin 2 mm Cable Combs.
The part below is for my Asus Titan 6GB (3 + 4 pins).



Ill be back soon.

I know that beside the logo is a copyright sign so that is inclusive the tt centered.
For the rest the program makes it. When i com home tommorow from nightshift at the firestation i will take a look.
Thanks for the help. If needed a new window is quickly made on my machine.

Because i cant sleep yet i took a quick look at the logo.

The tt has a extra c of copyright symbol right from it and the position has to be like this.
The line below also is written this way. Of cours it does not matter if i change it to look better this way.

I want to finsih the cables today.
I started cutting wires again "for the same card". This time i made no mistakes that i can see.
I am going to use the oter extension cable for the shorter cable.

It is already 20:45 and i want to play bf3 .

So i end with a few pictures.
The puzzle is getting smaller but i keep doing modifications when i want it.

Upcomming changes and modifications:
- Acrylic standard to guide the extension cable more away from the fan;
- Going to order a intel 750 ssd with a waterblock;
- The grommet at the 24 pin is going to be changed for a mild acrylic piece "looks better i think".

Tommorow again a extra **** so i am back saturday for more work on the desk.

I think one cable looks better then two next to eachother. But i want guide them more straight down in front of the fans.
There fore i make a custom bracket.






Dont go away i com back soon.
