OK back to this. I've used an alu angled trim in matt brass. And then wrap.

effin ell wrong thread /facepalm

OK so first job (and the hardest) was to remove the GPU. This was so I could get to the MB's USB sockets to add in the hub I got. Crap brand, but worked very well. It didn't even need power connecting to it. Get out the second set. And then slowly start adding them. This was extremely hard...

Ah OK cool.

Yup. Mr 2 tier threatened them with fines and so quite rightly they told him to do one. Ugh.

Shame because the game itself is supposed to be ace. One for the bargain bin next year when it's been fixed.

OK so yeah, today in a nut shell. Mask (this was a pain big time) I put a fine line masked edge as I've never met a tape that doesn't bleed. Coat one. You'll note the grille in the background. Coat two. Coat three. And the grille. Tomorrow I shall finally play with this toy...

What a two day willy pain. So I got over yesterday about 1. The rails were here waiting. However, when I went to fit them I noticed a big effing problem. The old rails were counter sunk into the front and rear panels. Meaning my new rails I just spent £25 on were too short. I then had the genius...

Ooo how cute !

Seems it gets faster later in the evening. Must be because people are in town using the 5g in the day. Bought a new switch. High end one this time. Might see if I can set up a VOIP or something when I am bored.
