Well, sort of an update for the time being...
Excuse the greenish hue, that is due to the green plexi used as roofing on our 'stoep area. Camera didnt flash, wasnt too bothered to take another pic...
EDIT - Yes, those are my ugly feet... I was standing on the bar counter (home made) to get the picture taken...
As you see it there, you see the DVD writer bay area in the box. To the bottom, as the image lies, will be a PSU box, looking much the same as the DVD one, only square and much smaller...
To the right I will fit my HDD cage, sideways, so my HDD's face to the sides of my case, not to the front/back...
This is the HDD tray, still in my 'home-made' clamp system. This clamp will also be used to glue / screw my total case together as well. Works wonders in keeping everything nice and square...
Yes, it looks dang ugly from the pics... That cannot be helped...
I do however now have almost 75% of what I need to complete my case. It starts with sanding and varnish now, lots and lots... the case gets like 5 coatings...
Then as the next step I will fit everything, then take final measurements for another mini box for the top to cover my RAD...
Will also then still have to cut the holes on the back, front and top of my case. Then it is just completing the side panels and the plexi windows, doing electronics and I am done...
I can almost gaurantee you I wont put up another update. When I work on building the case, I build,,, I dont take breaks, so I dont take pics either...
Will definately put up pics when it is done and will most likely go to the DPEX lan that will be held on the 30th of June - Day of Defeat Source FTW!
Yeah, still some interesting ideas and surprises that should be forthcoming, but yeah...
Cant believe that that ugly piece of wood will look so darn nice and shiny and dark and colourful once it is decently varnished...
Shortest MOD thread ever prize should now be handed over to ME...
