Any place in Malaysia that offers case modding service?
Basically I just want to get a bigger window for my side panel, probably remove the fan slots.
I'm using the case below which is a CM storm Scout II.

Haven't visit any hardware shops but wondering if anyone have experience in material costs of 2020 aluminum profile and their accessories

Sigh... bangwall.gif Just have to rant a bit why is it so damn hard to get basic material locally.
Either they are non existence (such as aluminum v slot systems), or super expensive (RM170 for a single bar of aluminum channel, or a single piece of non transparent acrylic).
The most funniest question I ever get from those hardware vendors "what is acrylic?". I literally want to faint... doh.gif

While acquiring tools is surprisingly easy, they are literally everywhere, even in a shopping mall... material is a complete different story.

Solution - China China China China China China China...
There are many custom works available on Taobao beside selling raw materials, custom cut acrylic to size or even aluminum panel machining.
Unless you have good amount of contacts in local industry, but even then acquiring small amount for DIY project can be really hard locally.
I see several custom work services on Lowyat already closed topic... hmmmmmm.

I gave up looking for stuff locally anymore, no point, pointless, complete waste of time. Just order at Taobao for fraction of the price.
If anyone need help ordering material from Taobao perhaps I can ask my friend to help you out.

In needs of 3D design or CAD file drawings? I can help you out on that. thumbsup.gif
I've ordered a bunch of alu v-slots, alu channels, acrylic to work on a custom tower case right now (as pic below).
Hopefully the order went through without issue, I have enough headache already...

The small scale laser cutting service at Jalan Nanas, Kuching hopefully still operating. Haven't been there for ages.
Definitely will need their service.

Interestingly self-adhesive vinyl with various patterns including wood grain can be found at Mr.DIY. Size starting 250cm x 5 meter RM16-ish.
They are meant for house wallpaper use but nah, can use it for anything. Hella more cheaper than buying whole frigging roll from renovation company.
Carbon fiber vinyl for car use can also found at Mr.DIY for hella more cheaper price compared to other places.
Last time bought a roll for over RM70 at garage sales I feel like I got scammed... whistling.gif

It's nearly impossible to find anything here in Kuching.
Look at the bright side. That's the opportunity. We provide such supplies and services.
I know where to get acrylics and I'm looking to get my own laser cutter. PM me if interested to work together on future projects.

Mind give some info about the acrylic?
Weeks back I found an advertising company behind MJC selling 4x6 2mm solid white RM90, but haven't visit them yet though to verify.
Still way cheaper than that Tai... forgot what name supplier company... at the former 20cent building there, which was about RM150.

Her name Amy, she is the distributor/supplier.
Normally, most shop in kuching takes order. Then Amy will send it out from her factory.

V-slot extrusions, brackets and stuff from China. Ship through sea due to weight, took > 1 month to arrive...
Quality good, just bad packaging. The courier guys must see it is metal and slam it pretty hard... mad.gif Gotta ask seller to seal them and put FRAGILE sign next time.
Need order some of these for moddings send me a message see if I can arrange something. hmm.gif

These are not for sale, working on my own project. Will take some times to progress, gonna finish prototyping in 3D first.

Cold cathode fluorescent lamps (CCFLs) are usually also called cold cathodes. Neon lamps are a very common example of a cold cathode lamp.
Cold cathodes remain popular for LCD backlighting and enthusiast computer case modders.

There are few mod shops and few independent modders in Malaysia providing such services.
You can PM me for more details.

Hi guys, quick question, not sure if this is the right place to ask.

I have a gaming PC housed inside a Bitfenix Prodigy case. Back then I wanted to get the standard side-panel with the vents, but the shop gave me the windowed one by accident. Didn't bother with exchanging for the right one back then since my temps are pretty good.

But games are getting a little more demanding and I would like to actually get a vented one. Where can I get it? I can only find people selling the windowed sidepanel separately.

Also, I would like to get one of the custom mesh front panels, but it doesn't seem like any of the sellers here in lowyat sell them.

Any thoughts?
