Project Mesa

Hey guys! This will be my first scratch build. It'll be a a watercooled server/htpc/gaming rig in a piece of furniture under my TV. I hope you like it.

This is how my "entertainment room" looks now:

And these are the renders, just to get an idea. I'll improve them while the build is progressing:

Now, real pics:

The wood is (in spanish) "vitacola", I haven't found the english word. It's a strong and heavy wood. The colour with the varnish will be reddish brown, but it varies with the sun and time, making it a more vibrant colour.

Feel free to ask anything.

Regards.

New renders!:

I've mounted all the parts to check everything is ok. There are still some things to finish and process the wood. You'll see in the next posts:

That's all for now. Stay tuned!

[Sir-Weasel]

awesome woodwork I can see it isn't your first time (working with wood that is :lol: )
And for what kind of a colour are you going, a dark mahogany colour or a light oak coulor, ...
for a very shiny and reflective finish or a rough finish ?

And keep up the good work and keep them updates coming.
