The build has ground to a hault as im trying to sort out this floor, i know it can be done as i have seen something thats allmost identical to what im after.

Finished off the ATX cable today, i found using boiling water was perfect.

Right i could still find nothing to do so i did the following.

Made an oven with a box and a hair dryer.

Lots of sanding to flush off the mounting arms.

Little reminder of how i'm going to mount the pumps.

Here it is back on the pump, just so i could see how it looked, its now sitting in my server case baking, ill leave it there for a week then sand it back a bit and clear coat it. Looks awesome! 2 more to go... I wish i had a fancy camera to take nicer shots, these are all from my phone :(

I have also done heaps of research and have found what i need to make my flooring work better than i ever imagened, only thing is its going to cost between £150-200 :( O well. In for a penny in for a pound and all that...

Wow, looking good!

Shame about the flooring costing so much... can't think of any ways round it..?

it'll look awesome though I'm sure!

There is a way to do it with LEDS but there is compromise with that method :(.

Minor update

I got the brainding dirty because im a fool and i was not very happy with the spray job i did on the base of the pump, it was rushed and i used paint that was 5 years old. So I stripped it back down and re primed it. Got a very nice base to paint on to now. Ill be purchasing paint in the next few days.

Also sat the last pump running in a loop to test it not fault before i hack it to bits, its amazing how much heat these things produce :)

Some good news finaly... After months of research i can now say i "should" be able to do my flooring eacly how i wanted. Managed to get the cost down from £200 to £100 which is obviously awesome! Should be getting all the bits before new year :)

Did a bit more painting on the pumps, they are now cooking on a radiator, ill sand them down in a few days and apply some clear coat. I should have the 2nd peice of acrylic i will need for my flooring soon so i can get the pumps all back together and mouted. Pillar drill should be here in the next few days as well so i can get the top section drilled and tapped. Had a few more ideas tonight as well ;) more shortly.

Another pic of my awsome spray booth.

Im going to drill and tap my drive bay now, post up more pics later.
 
Thanks peeps :)

Here is what i got done today.

Few hole drilled and counter sunk

Few more holes drilled (excuse the one thats out of line) and played around with my 24 pin cable idea. Im going to change the cable to blue (orderd) as i think white will just be lost once the case all gets sprayed, i will re-drill all these holes on a peice of alli that will get bolted to the mobo tray and painted.

Had a bit of trouble when it came to tapping the threads, i think i may have a rubbish tap, i shall seek advice and hopefully get it done shortly, i really wanted the drive bay built today :(.

Maybe you are drilling the whole too big to start with skorch, its good to practice with different drill sizes on a spare piece before hand. A good starting point is 0.5mm smaller than the thread itself.

Also remember 1 turn in 1 turn ourn out, to get the swarf out, then back in to where it starts cutting again, then one rotation in and back out, ect ect ect just remember if its blocked with swarf it wont cut properly.
