Project Log: [Case Mod] WhiteWater mATX Build

[zhadlp]

Update

Got time to finally roll out the rotary and start the mini-mods this morning... Sorry for the crappy pics, I'm only using my phone's camera...

I'm making a cover for the HDD, I've already finished bending the mesh so all that's left to do is cut it

Looks straight enough

Sanded it down for better paint adhesion

After the paint job...


now it's time to mod the silverstone fm-83 fan (I wanted to imitate the CM fans Atilla used on his new project) the idea was stolen from tantric/mike, hehehe...

Blades removed

Finished cutting it...

Finished product should I paint the housing black and leave the blades white?


Printed a new sticker for my HX620 to match the mostly white/black theme (end result)


And here's the components being tested (note that tubes used are old ones and will not be used for this project):


That's it for now, I'll probably add more updates later or tomorrow, hope you like it...

Update some final updates of the day...

Finally finished sleeving the extensions and the fans, only cable left to sleeve are the case cables but the case isn't here yet..


Also tried the mesh HDD cover, might paint it white though (not sure until I try it on the case...)


That's all the updates for today, still no word from tantric/mike if the case is ready though, so the next update might take a while... I'll just go play Crysis 2 for now...

Update

Got a bit of free time so I decided to finish the HDD cover I was making.

Readying the acrylic for cutting

Painted the top of the cover white

And the finished product...


Also disassembled the thermaltake TB silence I had and painted it white...

And here's the finished product also...


To the guy who PMed me doubting that it was me doing some mods, here's proof:

Wala koy workshop

That's all for today, still no news on the case...
