Case modding phase 2 - JANCZ3RT

MINIMOD of Phase 2

Here is the newest mod:

I cleaned it up today so that it's not a sloppy job anymore...

I have painted in the word CZ3RT using a custom-made stencil...out of tape ;) Now noone will take my baby away.

As you can see the logo in the middle will be cut out and red LEDs will illuminate it. I wanted an entire window there but I realised that due to the way the case is constructed and due to the screws at the back of the motherboard, that will not be an option.

Hows send photos??????.
Would like to send pics of my set up!!!!
 
OK...started

I had a slight delay but finally I am starting to roll. I have just outlined the size of the window. As you can see, it deviates quite a bit from the original design but I had to do so because of the way the case is constructed. Here's the outlined window now:

Good idea....

That's a cool idea indeed. I may try that, yet I am afraid that with the tools that I have, it will be hard.

If you have an aluminium sander with a circular head, you should be able to roughly cut the hole, then give it its shape and clean look with the sander. It'll take time, but if you do it right, it'l be worth it.
 
Okie

Just as an update. I have almost finished the window mod with some long delay. It looks quite cool and unique as almost nobody builds a window where I did (the side of the case where the motherboard sits ;))

Pixies coming tomorrow I hope.

Wahey!

Just read through the whole topic, it looks very interesting. Wish I was daring enough to mod my case!

Can't wait to see the pictures! :)
 
Heya

I wanted to, but it's limited by the proximity to the back of the plate on which the motherboard is screwed into. It's a tight fit and a window would not fit there. I therefore had to stick with my outlined shape. At the bottom of it, there is going to be ... yes...yet another 80mm, LED fan :)

Quite the delay to get this done there Jan, lol. And nice logo. As Rambo said, I wish I was daring enought to mod my case! (maby the pentium 2 :) )
 
Lol

Yeah test it out first. This mod phase alone took me some 3 hours so some patience is required as well. However when you do spend the time on it, it's quite rewarding and cool knowing that you have done something nobody else has on your own case.

PIXs coming very soon.

JAN :D
 
Jan!! lol, im going to butcher a part of Project Michelle aswell, its just that acrylic/plexi is so damned expensive
 
Ok guys...here come some pixies ;)

Ok...

Ooopz, I ran into a problem which will not allow for the window to be installed. Instead, I will install a wire mesh with one 80mm fan on it. Do you guys have any other suggestions?

JAN :D
 
lol, if only rambo, if only... no other suggestions, i think its gonna look good, kinda out of the ordinary, not every pc has wire mesh as a window, lol.... so yeh, its just gonna make it look even better. as long as you get the right stuff, it could easily look rubbish if you get the wrong wire mesh, too big for example, you want something with small holes in it.

Dont forget to make sure the 80mm fan cna fit in the holes of the mesh nicely

Haha...

Yeah I always like doing things most other would not even consider. Haha...not that many people attempt to create a window on that side...I know I am weird ;) Glad you like it.
