Thanks HAmmerON

Update !!!!

4 days left before the case needs to be finished.

Continued my work on the front. Filled the edges up with 2K filler And sanded it all smooth. Had to repeat this proces several time before it was ready.

Primer

Colour on it.

Next step was to finish the top/res. Started to sand it 240 Grid and ended 2000Grid. After that I polished the top/res with Commandant nr4 to give it a clean bling bling finish.

Before

After

After spending few hour on the top/res. I started with the pump mount. My first idea to attach it on the mobo tray. But with the weight and vibrations I changed my mind. Made the mount from a Aluminum L profile.

When all the pieces where finished I could finally start with installing all the pieces.

Big moment filling the loop for the first time.

Atm there is still no leak.

Made a short movie of the res with all the rest enjoy

Next up was cable management. I asked Nate to add some 8x8mm plexi bars with the top/res.

After some filing and sanding I made this cable holder. Will do the same for all the rest of the power cables.

That is it again. Still a few thing to do before ready.
Cya next time!
