Ai, i'm having SOOOO much fun!!! w00t w00t!!

I just finished wiring the FIRST half of the second junction box. Man, it's busy in there!

Here's what it looks like open:

And here is what it looks looks closed:

Now that's with all the cables in there too.

Time for the second half of the second junction box:

Now this one is gonna be a mission, because apart form powering 4 devices out of this one (1 7800GT, 2HDDs, and a pump), i'll have 10 3.5mm female jacks, to power fans and LEDs and the fan cpntroller and stuff like that. So this one is gonna be very busy...

Yeah Wehnke, WAY too many wires!! But as you said, i have tagged them all, and maked each and every wire so that i know if it's a 12V, Ground, 5V, or 3.3V wire. So i'm not worried about it at all

Okay, update time.

I frikken SKATED about 7KM today JUST so that i can get THIS:

Sick. I'm DEAD tired, and my leg hurts like crap.

Okay, I started making the holes for the 6 Lian Li vandal resistant switches in both layers of the front panel plexi:

I'll finish that later. Then i went to the chroming place to get the two optical drive covers. Man, it looks AWESOME!!

Hehehe, back to work. I'm busy wiring the second half of the second junction box. Sick, i'm hating the wiring, it's such alot of work.

Can't you drive yet?

Man those optical drives look amazing! Did you remove all the workings inside, or what?

I can, but i don't have a frikken driver's licence.

Yeah, i took out everything inside and just sent the covers in for chroming.

Eish, must have been quite a mission. Hope it all works when you put it back together.

Yep, a brand new C2 is standing in my driveway, waiting for me.... to MOD IT!! (oh ja, and drive it too

)

No dude, optical drives are simple devices. I rewired the switch on both of them, so you don't open them where you usually would, i now have remote switches for them. I also added some LEDs inside that glow out when it's open.

lol, Optical drives 101!!

AlphA · Post by **AlphA** » 05 Sep 2006, 07:26

DAE - Your optical drives look awesome! Well done.....

Just too bad chroming only works lekker with a c-through case... If it didn't, I think we all would do it ASAP....

Some intense wiring there DAE... BTW how do the hoses get kept from coming out the box?

And what size wire do you use, 16, 18 or 22AWG?

Post by **Anthro** » 05 Sep 2006, 12:12

@ The ROMS

BLOODY WOW !!!!

I was wondering the same thing

There you can see the (i think) rubber washers...? I was planning on siliconing mine...lol

Off-The-Chart · Post by **Off-The-Chart** » 05 Sep 2006, 14:27

Yeah I thought that was what was holding them there...
Just couldn't find the right name for it...
Also, having them on one side, won't that still make it able to move in and out?

Do the hoses come with it? Or do you get ones that size that fit them?
