Plexy HTPC

Razarach · Jul 29, 2011

Hi guys!

Here is my new project. Main idea is build small, stylish case with good airflow.

So i decide to use plexiglas for this build. I will use pieces of plexy 1 cm width and 0.5mm thickness.

Here is some concept pictures.

Razarach · Jul 29, 2011

Hey guys. Here is some update and new photos.

After measuring i drill holes in plexy pieces for case side panels.

After that i drill holes in base plexy for side panels holders.

First i try if it fits....

And then i assemble whole case to see how this looks like.

This is all for today.

Hi guys! Here is some little update after vacation

After cutting plexiglass i got rough surface...

After sanding i have perfect smooth surface.

Can you squeal like a pig boy? :laugh:

Sexy and simple little case man, reminds me of a PS2 :toast:

Sexy and Simple it is. And inventive. Abraham Lincoln would be proud to live in that "log cabin"

I like that you avoided glue. That is the bane of my existence...making neat clean glue joints.

Is it fairly sturdy once assembled?

Razarach · Sep 15, 2011

Yup, it's pretty sturdy construction. I also dont like glue.
