[PROJECT] - The Project

steelkane · Dec 16, 2009

Awesome TJ07 build your doing here,, PRO work, I've used the loop coming out of the acrylic before, It's going to look Sick when finished.

NaMcO · Dec 28, 2009

Thank you guys.

Unfortunately the powdercoaters were tight up with work and the paint job got delayed until the first week of 2010, so more updates sadly only after 2010 makes its appearance... Happy New Year for everyone

EDIT:

PSU sleeving is complete, i forgot to post the pictures

Say hello to my new HX850. Still considering using black heatshrink instead of the light blue one :confused:

I think the mix of black and blue is quite classy

+ 100. Nice work, I like black. Makes it look "naughty".

Chicken Patty · Dec 28, 2009

subscribed! Great work. I love TJ07 builds, they are much fun!

NaMcO · Jan 5, 2010

Thank you guys and Happy New Year :rockout:

Meanwhile i *finally* got to know that my case is painted and ready for pick up. It's a 150km drive, not that much, but still have to get some time to go there and return. I will probably pick it up this weekend (or so i hope) and therefore conclude the project during next week :toast:

See you soon!

DreamSeller · Jan 5, 2010

looks so badass O_O

Cold Storm · Jan 5, 2010

sweetness, glad to hear that the case will be here soon! Can't wait to see it all!

Great job man.

:toast:

NaMcO · Jan 7, 2010

Well, during the short lunch break i managed to take a few shots for a slight update as i haven't posted anything new in a long time now. I just picked up the case yesterday (took 6 hours total to go to Coldzero, have it finished and return - THANK YOU Patuga!!) but she's here at long last

There's a long way to go, but i can continue now...

The new acrylic fan meshes to replace the original ones:

The top section also had the mesh replaced, i am using two fans here in order to remove any reminiscent hot air:

The "main hall", still without the power supply...

The two reservoirs:

Powdercoated this time, couldn't get a decent picture:

Even worse photo... Shame on me

The Aquaero was supposed to be hidden somewhere, but i tought it would be a nice idea to show it anyway somewhere in the build so here it is:

Front section starting to take shape... Tube routing here will be a P.I.T.A...

Pump area, loads of sleeving to do...

DVD cage section...

And yet another view here...

Detail of the small acrylic piece that will hold the faceplate, completely hiding the metal part:

And that's all for now, i will be updating more regularly now as it develops towards completion

Thank you all for viewing!

Thrackan · Jan 7, 2010

That's quite a lot of teasers

Can't wait to see full shots.

steelkane · Jan 7, 2010

So SWEET,, your really doing this case Pro Style.

BOBDBONE · Jan 8, 2010

Wow this is sweet!!

I love the black/blue combo.

Subscribing...

afw · Jan 8, 2010

Wooooowwwww .... simply stunning :respect:

InnocentCriminal · Jan 8, 2010

Very nicely presented worklog - thanks for the share - sub'd!

NaMcO · Jan 10, 2010

Small preview of how it will look like once finished...

A few things will change after this "test mount", but not that many

This is what's happening right now, little work "behind the scenes":

This is a costumization of the fan extensions so there's not excessive wire length inside the case...

I did a new set of SATA sleeving...

Orientation of the PCI-E cables, the light blue shrink is being replaced by black:

Used flash here:

General view, side already covered by the acrylic panel:

Another angle, this is almost like the final mount, little to do in there:

Top fans being tested, i still have to sleeve the coloured wires:

And that's about it. During next week i hope to have the build finished

Thanks for looking!

Chicken Patty · Jan 10, 2010

Very good man, this is looking very good. :toast:

Cold Storm · Jan 11, 2010

Looks really nice man! Glad that your going away from the light blue heatshrink. Can't wait to see it finally done.

:toast:

Thrackan · Jan 11, 2010

Hmm, I liked the black and blue

MRCL · Jan 11, 2010

Holy mother of all whats holy!

Also :toast:

to the Fractal fans, I love them! By the way, regarding the PSU sleeving; I don't see you marked any of the wires, does it not matter which wire goes where, except of the color of course? I mean there are some red colored wires, where two wires meet in one pin. Also I assume you bent the hooks on the pins back so they don't get loose, no? Otherwise nice job on the sleeving, MDPCX rocks :rockout:

- Project Completed -

I tought this day would never come, but finally managed to get some time in order to finish this build. There were only a few details left, but details take their time and a LOT of time too...

Okay, no more delays, here are the final project pictures. Let's begin with a few blurry night shots:

Front detail with power on:

Some exterior pics with the UV neon turned on, my camera doesn't like night shots at all:

And here are the final shots. Well, ALMOST final, i still had to sleeve/fix the neon starter:

Hope you enjoyed it, i SURELY did

Can't spend much more time here, i need to go off and enjoy it! Thanks a lot for watching, it's a pleasure to share this with TechPowerUp! and i will surely return someday to this section of the forum!

See ya!

MRCL · Jan 16, 2010

Why on earth would we want to do that? We wouldn't see any more of your fantastic worklogs. Absolutely no need to get cranky and sarcy.
