Whee~ back for more updates.

Remember the front look? Fugly with that milky coloured CD-RW.

Now it no longer has that ugly different colour look.
And my cheapo modding style is gonna be revealed. Low cost decoration at the front panel.

Firstly, I changed the position of the DVDs and multi card reader. Then there's a gap between the two DVDs. Sooooooo... to fill it up...

A thin and small piece of acrylic, cut to size and slid in. Ahh... the supposed result isn't reached yet. Blue LEDs will do the trick (waiting for the day I'll get my LEDs, cannot wait liao!!)

Next:
This is a 120mm fan holder. It came together with the casing and is suppose to be placed above the HDD, inside. I took it out, sand off the gray coating using a some 1000 grit sandpaper (in one direction), and polished it a little. biggrin.gif There's the nice fine lines.

Then, I cut a small piece of acrylic, the size of the "fan holder". (I think the best way to cut smaller sized acrylic is to scratch a line a break it) And drew my design on it. ( tongue.gif I curi the idea from some other place and blend it with my own flames, then cut with my trusty knife)

Before tearing out the protective sheet, I cut and tear off the design part then used sand paper to blur out the design... err... if you don't get what I mean, look at the piece of completed acrylic below, then hopefully you'll understand.

Then screw it to the fan holder. Screw up the support and screw it onto the rack and it's done. (So much screw biggrin.gif)

So there you go... two easy and cost saving front panel deco. Will take pics of the LEDs effect after I fix them up. Cheers.

Oops... I forgot about the HDD cooler. Post next update

biggrin.gif Actually... since it's a straight line, just scratch a deep line and break it. It breaks perfectly.

Thank you... thank you. It's way better than just letting it collect dust sitting in the computer unused.

Cheap solutions come from how you could manipulate what you have to make something new biggrin.gif

_____________________________________________________________________________

Kay now... HDD cooler's turn.

At first, I thought that there's no point for me to have any HDD cooler. But then... why not, since I have this powerful fan lying unused.

So sprayed the fan blades white. (Hee...hee~ blue LEDs later)
More acrylic work, minus the right tools. I'm not too sure about the accuracy, so I just had to draw lines here and there so that it's 100% perfect.

Now,
with a cheapo drill and a 4mm drill bit,
some old newspapers,
minus the safety gears/protection, the right tools or the right way to do it,
I present you... pmmonkey's not so conventional way of drilling.

user posted image

I initially planned for it to have aligned holes, so that I wouldn't need any fan grille. Then I decided that, there's no use to it, who's the idiot putting his/her hands in there anyway. So... I drilled all round. (Gimme the right tools, I swear I could do wonders!!)

And this is after sanding... WITH SANDPAPER! (Meh... blurry)

And the best thing is... this is only half done. I'm awaiting the days where I'll add LEDs brows.gif brows.gif (OMG I lurve lights)

Err... and the bad thing is... there wasn't any connector for this fan, whistling.gif so I took off the wires from a 4 pin molex and just joined and masked it. Temporary lar ... gonna add switch some more.

So here's the front and right panel for now.

Working on the left panel... nothing major and nothing special.
Thanks for reading.
