i got it from here

did you sand the aluminium before painting ?

seems like a good buy haha

woah.. didnt think this would be a worklog thread..

paint will strip off easier.. better to sand.. wipe with tac cloth.. then only spray

ohh i see....but now aldy painted... it's ok i guess tis case can last for 2-3 years...after tat change another casing . beside, i'm looking forward for the sleeving...

i got sand me case too, but still strip off easier
powder the best way

yup tat's the best...also expensive...

nice pc nice item how was ur PSU i used CM silent pro 1200w damn stupid cable design ugly any fan recommence

for spray paint i normally
sand (high grit)
apply one layer of of primer
sand (medium grit)
apply one layer of primer
sand (low grit)
apply one layer of primer
sand (low grit)
paint

so far worked for me .

wow nice2...

it's been sometime since the last updates. right now i have something in my mind. i feel like getting my hands on tj-07. do u guys think i can let go my lianli a7010? if yes, how much it worth? and how much a tj-07 cost now?

u can the pricing form storm88..

i saw moderno selling 1299. tj07 and 800d, which one better? i like the full interior black of 800d but i also like the aluminium of tj07

moderno a bit expensive

Awesome mod dude !

not really mod, just spray different colors....hehe

go for tj-7

is there any version that black interior ?

none bro.. u have to powder coat

powder coat cost how much? and where can be done? any idea? hehe

for the pricing u can ask supernothing

Go for TJ07, owikh is selling his. But you'll need to touch it up. Besides, the TJ07 allows u to choose to let your motherboard stand on atx or inverted atx style. Very suitable for WC too.

already grabbed tat case....waiting for delivery and powder coat. may get my hands on it next weekend, haha

good job in getting that case

Congratz on new purchase bro. I smell a new mega project is coming soon..
It is not hard to find a template TJ07 mod around the globe.
For instance..

Damn I fallen in love with TJ07 so much last time

it's been quite sometime after changing to tj07. currently i re tuning the tj07 and here i share the work log....

first of all i must give credits to

1. owikh84 for selling me the tj07
2. supernothing for powder coat the interior
3. iaknesnah for the top grill, back plate, mid plate, hammond boxes and also some minor fix
4. jibek for the water cool products
5. those i forgot to mention

so here it goes.....

the interior parts that powder coat in black, removed them for easier setting up the bottom part


naked view



three hammond boxes nicely screwed on the case by iaknesnah


a closer look


xspc 480cm radiator with three artic f12 fans


rad, fans and fittings on


continue....

put it on the case


the other side view


get ready the d5 pump with ek top v2 and fittings


connect them with black tygon tube


put the stock mid plate to see is the hole from pump align


and next is the luminous mid plate
top side


bottom side


continue.....

i notice that the way i put my rad caused the fitting can't be installed on the bottom side of the mid plate coz the fan is blocking due to the hammond boxes rose the height

so i decided to take out the hammond boxes and install the fans the other side, this time is four fans pull method

now everything is ok




and



after that i notice that i can put like this without sacrifice the hammond box but i prefer the fitting at the rad near to front panel...


the next thing is bring in the psu


and then the mobo and new kyros cpu block



and then time for breakfast, haha.....

after i back from breakfast, i straight hentam and put in the mobo, gpu and res to leak test...


cpu


rad and pump


the test was passed then i turn on the luminous mid plate...


and closer view


after that i put in the hard disk and ssd and the cable management here are so so due to the non sleeved sata cables


the whole thing


and it's done....i'm very satisfy with the well done job by iaknesnah and supernothing for the powder coat and modded stuff, there are really great, i strongly recommend tj07 user to find iaknesnah for his murder mod copy mod stuff, u won't regret....
