Does anyone know of someone who can weld aluminium?

I got the bars and still need to cut and file them but have to get someone to weld it all together.

PM me if you know of someone in the PTA area

Update!!! Dont worry - I found someone

Pics or it didn't happen lol

I have decided to start a new project. Scratch build as always. Like these: http://i158.photobucket.com/albums/t90/JacobsRobin/Image011_resize.jpg I am going to call this mod: " Mecha " Now I wont bore you with how the final box is going to look, but I will show you the inside: http://i55...

this is the way im gonna mount it - jus a little higher & less fans :twisted: what do you guys think? I agree with DJV, It will look bad on the back. Plus you will have issues with cabling if my sizing-up-the-raddy guestimate is correct. Place it below the case and make some kind of pedestal/fo...

Red and black is a good combination especially if the components are that colour as well. What colour are you going to make the lighting inside? You should really also try to plan your mod on paper or some CAD program like sketcup if you can. It always helps with improving any ideas or ironing out p...

Great work. I like the "hood effect", what colour are you going to paint it?

That is fantastic. Nicely done.

Where did you have it made?

Cool. I hate those things but glad you like what you got

I can't find any straps. So you will either have to make your own or go with fitted handles.

what sort of handle were you thinking?.. something solid? brackets for straps? pink? :P All very valid questions. But physically you need a drill and a drill bit(slightly larger than the screws), you need screws and handles that you feel fits your case. At 13kg your case is no light weight so get s...

Thanks guys.

I am not to keen on setting up any ADSL router (except for username and password). I was just looking at the Billion BiPAC 7300G RA (HERE). Which seems to be easy to setup (as its already done) and is wireless. Your opinions?

I had an unfortunate lightning incident at home this weekend and my ADSL router took the brunt of the incident. It was an el cheapo ISP supplied variant of some sorts and well it needs replacement. I am not one who knows much about networking and would like someone's input on the subject. I play SC2...

I get annoyed by your comments because I feel that all the work I have put into my mods are being dissed by someone with no experience in modding. I made all my mods, I had stuff laser cut, painted things by myself but also had some stuff CNC'd. I consider myself a good'ish modder. DJV asks for my h...

Well its not a complete bummer...

I'm dropping my car off at the autobody shop to get re-sprayed. See, I'm a professional car-restorer now. After that the tuning shop will drop in new exhaust and various other performance part. Because according to you, I'm also a professional car tuner after that. Nice try, but only a true modder ...

By the way, what kind of modder calls himself professional if he sends the parts out for the modding to be done by someone else??? You have absolutely no idea what you are talking about. Modding isn't about how a result is gotten, its about what the end product looks like. And if you decide to powd...

I am probably never going to finish this mod. I won't have a use for it so its going into storage. I do have something else thats moving and opening that will have a use. New hardware coming next year will have to have a new case.

This is going to be awesome!!! I can't wait to see how its going to look when done.

I need some help with some power circuitry on a autonomous vehicle i am conceptualising. It's got an AVR micro controller which has got to read various inputs and give outputs based on these. That part is easy, in fact the basic code is written. I just have to adapt it to for a second motor. What I...

That's a nice way of making the round feet. Pity that case looks like a pig rolled around in it because of the dirt. But nice idea, would like to see the final product

Its on my desk, we will just be needing gears to go with it. Let me know when you want to come visit

Has anyone else tried playing coop with a buddy over Battle.net? If you haven't, you have to!!! It is awesome. We didn't experience any lag, the game ran smoothly and we won the game (it was on easy but still...). This game rocks!!!

Why can't I keep my workbench that neat?

Let me know when you want to come visit.

That is seriously cheap. Did you see if they can bend metal sheets?

*Sighs* We're getting the keys to our new place on Saturday so there's so much that needs to be bought now with the wedding coming up, my hand keeps hovering over the "Checkout" button on Kalahari's website and then I pull myself away with a tear in my eye. I know what's going to happen t...
