Long time no see... time for a weekly update.
first i had to adapt the hdd easymount mechanism onto the drive racks for this one. i decided to use 2 easy mount for each rack, one sliding mechanism at each corner.
First i had to cut the easy mounts to size
Then finishing
Now since this build is a dual pc build, i had to make space for another PSU which meant that the larger motherboard needed to be trimmed.
these are after triming. still has mounting holes for hptx
then came to attaching these to the hdd racks
i used double sided tape on the working edge and rubber based glue on the other edge to secure it in place before i drilled and riveted them into place. the rubber adhesive and the double sided foam tape will help absorb vibrations as well.
time to cut the rails from the hdd bay to size:-
rough idea of how the sliders will work. here the channels from the drive bay are placed over the slider on the corners
the rack after riveting has been completed
you can see the foam
after measuring the distance of the sliders on the racks, its time to mount the other half of the mechanism onto the vertical holds that will be a part of the base of the cabinet
at this point i cut my index finger severly by trying to rambo off a sharp burr. bleeding... but the show must go on.
test fitting and doing the measurements for the hdd rack fans whose holes will be projected onto the front of the front of the cabinet
looks good enough
time to do it the other way
nice
unfortunately that will be the end for now. cant press triggers with the gash... so i will finish up the calculations for the front fans and hope to complete the construction part by this weekend.
thanks for reading
