    Will's Toolbox PC - Sponsored by Thermaltake!

    Here I’ve got the loop filled and bled out. And a quick shot while I was wiring up the fan controller. Here it is all up and running. I was using a USB keyboard temporarily as I was out of AAA batteries for my wireless keyboard. I noticed that the Demci filter was being pulled in by...

    I decided to order a full set of silicone dust covers from Mod Cover seeing how this PC will be in a pretty rough environment. I got enough to fill out the back panel (minus the ports I’ll be using) as well as two more USB plugs for when the front USB 3’s aren’t in use and some SATA port and...

    The fan control shroud is a perfect fit. I drilled the corner brackets like so so that the well nut will go through both the acrylic and steel while the bolt goes through just the bracket. Here’s the completed bracket setup. The four front-facing holes will accept well nuts and hold on...

    I got the W2 CPU Block mounted and the LED connector plugged into the CPU fan header. Next up I worked on securing the acrylic to the toolbox. I decided to use M5 well nuts with some nice red anodized button head fasteners. Next I got the PT20 mounted to the left side panel. This combo...

    I painted the i/o part black and installed the i/o shield. With the motherboard mounted to the lower plate I marked and cut out slots for the wiring to pass through. Here I have the panel riveted into place. I also cut out the hole and mounts for the rear 120mm exhaust fan and added...

    I had to partially disassemble the PSU to get it to fit nicely under the lip of the casing. I also had to sand down the top edge of the cooling fan a tad so the bottom acrylic panel would lie flush. I set the hardware up on the workbench and got Windows 10 Technical Preview installed and all...

    This drawer with the large BAJA sticker is the junk drawer. There's really no need for this to be here. It's full of junk and it's HEAVY. This spot had two drawers in it. This is where the PC is going. The two drawers that were here got moved to where the single junk drawer came from. As...

    Ok so this mod is already finished but I'm going to edit all the pics and post the entire build log here. I have a large 2-piece Husky toolbox that obviously houses all of my tools. The bottom right drawer is a deep one (takes up two vertical spots) and is full of nothing but spare nuts and...

    Circuit Box - HAF XB mod

    So back to the light green issue...I had a bottle of Primochill UV Brite Green dye so I decided to squirt a bunch in - I ended up using just about the entire bottle (which dyes a gallon of coolant) but it turned out perfect and now the UV LED's actually make it light up green instead of turn a...

    Circuit Box - HAF XB mod

    I filled the loop with Mayhem's Pastel Mint Green. I like it but it's a tad too light for me - I was looking for something a little bit darker...hmmm...will work on that later. ;) And here's how it looks with the white LED's in all of the blocks Now while I was...

    Circuit Box - HAF XB mod

    Next up I got the side panels done. I measured and cut out the panels for the windows I opened up the lower guide track and slid a white LED strip into the track to light up the window etchings. Then I filed the cuts smooth and put some edge molding on then mounted the windows with 3M...
