My Project Log:

Yeah, Sneeky came up with the idea.. It could work out quite well really.. Just gotta see if trying to get acrylic ones would be good, or just getting a PVC pipe and doing it myself.. I gotta get some wires tomorrow long enough for the fan set-up and also the switches..

:ohwell: I don't know what my mind is thinking! I guess since I've had one hell of a week and kinks in the mod... lol.. nah, I'd die before i touch anything like that! lol
 
since I am here bugging you did I read before you were using the Vandal switches for lights?
 
Yeah, I'm going to use two of them. One on/off for the uv, and the other for the white led's.
 
arent the Vandal switches momentary?
 
Nope, PPC (there's where I got PCP! I swear!) has them in both the Momentary and On/off The only thing they don't have is any on/off in the "dot" feature of switches.. Ring and plain is in stock.. Got two Black with Blue ring
 
Thanks for showing me that (learn something new every day):respect:
 
Np, now I just gotta make sure to wire it up right! lol.. Keep putting it off.. lol..
 
lol, I know that feeling...I am always freaking out when it comes time to throw the power switch the first time:eek:
 
You know CS.. thats the greatest thing about being in FL and being a PC enthusiast! IS PPC.. but at the same time.. every time Im ready to make a big order with them.. there is always one of those items on your list you need ASAP and its out of stock, every damn time!

Thanks CP for that. It took me about 3 hours to do those 4 fans and then set it up in a series.. Reason... I some how only got the middle two connected right.. So, had to re do it.. :roll: but worked great the second time.

Now, after talking with Sneeky, and thinking I should run to ACE/Lowes tomorrow for some 18g wire, he came up with something good On the rails that run along the case, have some sort of cut up tubing to go and hide the wires.. I'm all ready going to go to ACE/Lowes tomorrow to get wires that can go from the three from the front to wire them to go all the way around the case to do so... SO, here is my question.. Should I go and get some PVC Pipe and paint it all myself, or should I go and get some one to do acrylic quarter tubing for me? Suggestions??? Have to be black.. lol


Well, that's it for tonight.. I'm going to rest for the rest of the night, and get up for a full day of wiring of sorts tomorrow.



Oh yeah.. Forgot... Youtube!!! :rockout:

But, mine wasn't out of stock, Look at the links. Call them up and they'll tell you its not out of stock. I have. They just couldn't get it right twice and so flop it.
 
unlucky CS, only the best of us have problems :laugh::laugh::laugh:

but atleast u are going forwards not backwards! :D
 
Update:

All right, So I've been a busy bee the past two days. Had the weekend off so got done what i've been putting off. Well all most got it done.. I still have to sleeve the back two fans, and the one that will be blowing onto the GPU's.. But, I did get the four from yesterday done, and got the Aerocool fans done.. But, they where a PITA.. Had to use a power fan header just to make sure I cut the yellow one, and got the pos/neg right via sharpie! Woot!

First off for today, I did the cabling of the fan connection that will be connecting the front fans to the top fans at the very back of the case.. This way I can move it along the rails to hide it.

It was a quite easy once i found out the trick to the sleeving.. Crisco couldn't even really help me once it got almost a foot sleeved.. lol.. but, did that and in shorter time then it was to do that 10" I was done.. lol.. Then it was time to solder and connect.. Bad part, it worked the first time, then a positive wire broke off the solderd link and I had to re do it.. lol.. but it works..

Then once that was done, I went for the front panel fans.. PITA. The aerocool fans look sweet as can be, and love the fact it wasn't stuck with the red/black/yellow wires.... But, since I was going to sleeve it.. Yeah, that became a pain.. But, after making sure to cut the "yellow" and then mark the Negative quite well with a Perm. Marker. Those things can be quite handy for modders.. Also if you work in the food industry!! lol.. But after awhile I got them all done

Well, once that was done, I was able to throw them into the loop! Ohhhh I was so getty about it.. Yes, sir!

Man, I'm so glad that is over with! Well it's almost done with.. I'll stil have to get, if MM says he want to do the two sides, 3 more fans & wire them up for the top panel.. That will be 3 instead of 4 due to how it's all set up.. Plus I don't need one fan just blowing down onto the bay... lol.

Well, that's all I got for today.. But, I do have something for everyone


Youtube TIME!











Oh yeah, to tease:

Thanks Bro! :toast:
 
:respect:<<< that says it all
 
Thanks for the pic update, man!:toast:

nice work on the wiring and sleeving...:cool:

love those power cooler fans... they look so...aggresive :rockout: love them!
 
Thanks CA, I love the comment you threw on youtube! Lol..

Well a small update of sorts.. I got a e mail back from PPC

Apparently these two parts have the same part number.

Can you send a picture of the incorrect item?

Best Regards,

So, I just got done taking pictures of the foam one they send me, and sent it back to them... Date & Time stamp also.. I hope this can get fixed.. Yeah, I was upset because of it being the second time and still mess up.. But, things happen.. Just happens to be everything thrown into one thing! lol... I'd still order from them. Not like Wal-mart/Best Buy yet!... It doesn't take me pulling apart their security stuff in order to get attention and that's with a guard.. lmao
 
those things seem to happen a lot over there... I remember ordering an Enermax fan controller and they sent me a Sunbeam Tech one...(their site showed a pict of the Enermax controller)

They have a lot of cool stuff (PPC) but their customer service sucks big time...
 
Update. Very fast response with Them and their sending out the right thing today.. I have ot send back the item they sent my mistake, but said they refund me the money when they get it.. I'll be a happy camper! I get my phone tomorrow also!! Woot!

Yeah, there's some good stuff with PPC.. I just was upset on how it was done.. two times in a row.. but, like I said, wasn't like Walmart/best buy... I'm quite good with their service.. only because.... My Preschool year cost a grand a month. :roll: Damn grandparents!
