fantastic job mate !!
really amazing !!!

Thanks!

Brilliant build!


Just wondering, did you just mount the LEDs directly below the acrylic? Or did you do any frosting/sanding on the edge to prevent "beams" of light?

wow very nice work m8

I did mount the leds about 35mm from the edge of the acrylic. I also glass blasted the acrylic. I tried first with sanding but didn't get the surface i wanted so tried glass blasting which worked great!

Update coming soon, a bit of a failure but still an update

Thanks for all who voted for me in the Cooler Master mod competition! Got myself a 3rd prize

After a very busy Christmas I've made a prototype of the ram, did not go well at all but at least i've gotten started.

This is the design. It's basically the same design as the Dominator platinum ram but with a sandwich construction consisting of two aluminum sides with acrylic in the middle.

The aluminum part

One of the aluminum parts pressed together with the acrylic. Got decent tolerances on the parts so i just pressed them together with a vice, no glue needed

Made a red light bar so the ram would match the case better. Still want a white acrylic top with it only being red when its on

Installed without a lightbar

It looks the same with a lightbar. Think there is not enough light for the light to reflect all the way to the middle of the ram. I will experiment a bit more but if i can't figure it out i will leave it with just a red lightbar

With the red lightbar and the original part it looks like this. It's not too bad but a bit of the white light shines through due to the fact that the leds are further apart than the width of the lightbar. The red bar is the same width as the original one. Also gonna polish the entry surface of the acrylig to let as much light through as possible

That is awesome but what about dust?

 

[Ace_finland]

Thanks! yeah it gets a bit dusty

Hey guys!
Back now, been very busy with work and a lot of other stuff.

Have been trying my best to get the ram working but after corsairs "release" on monday i decided to shelf my idea.

I tried making grooves and so on in the acrylic and i got the light to spread decently as far as the new corsair kits are covered. Maybe they had the same problem Anyways, I will move on to some other mods i want to try out instead. Updates to come as soon as i make some progress

Oh, also got the Rig Of The Year over at guru 3D!
