bloomerzuk - glad i made you chuckle 
welshd1k - I've not painted the back as they will be against a radiator so wont see it.
amdftw - I've not had any Noctua fans so can't compare sorry.
mnpctech - as for the colour matchin...maybe it was planned that way
i had the rest of this week all planned out modding wise and then i got called in to work for 2 days which has really thrown me.
next update will probably monday now
as for the videos, anything youd like to see or any suggestions to improve them etc?

Yea, liking the videos too "a nice close up of my finger there... why not!"
But those fans look seriously nice! I'd keep them running as slow as possible to get that cool hypno-swirl look all the time

Ducky - I'm not sure how much air they would shift going that slow..I'll rig up a fan controller and have a look see.
Only a small update here, sorry folks. The weekend seemed to disappear before my very eyes
Now that the paint has dried on the fans I put clear lacquer on them and now they are very shiny
I still need to braid the cables but thats a task for another day.
In other news I had a small package delivered while away at work...
500 Black Pop Rivets which were actually cheaper than just buying the 80 odd that I need.
Should make the pop rivets blend in rather than having silver.
Thats it for now although I'm still working on my next video which I swear takes longer to edit than actually do.. *sigh*

So another new video. Really spoiling you this week
Braiding
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tmE5a4DZl9s
My modding plans for the rooftop have come to a juddering halt as I've ran out of cutoff wheels for my dremel clone and I'm a little puzzled on how to do the next bit. Maybe it will come to me after a drink...or two

RuneBeard - Rivets for computers are normally 1/8" Aluminium with a Gripe range .092" - .125" for Computers. The ones I have a little longer so I will see how they come out on a test piece later in the week.
Glad you folks like the vids.

So it's been a while since I had an update..but fear not my friends I have a shiny new video for you.
Modding The Roof Panel
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fqEPLfO2y5k
Sorry for the quality of the sketchup section, not sure how to sort that yet. Also the perspex will have designs on not just round holes but it was all I had time to do.
I'm hoping to get the roof modding sorted soon as without it I can't piece the case back together. Without the case being back together I can't finalise the dimensions for the custom res as (like a muppet) I forgot to measure BEFORE I ripped it to bits.
Enjoy and don't forget to comment either here or on the video
PS I will be away for the next week so the project is on hold until I return.

So I figured a quick catchup was due. I was hoping to take photos outdoors but it's been raining for ages so I had to make do with what I had.
As you saw I braided an ATX Extension in my earlier video, but I didn't actually take any snaps.
Since then I've braided some more of the PSU.
Seemed a shame to pull off the black braiding which was on my BeQuiet 850W PSU..
But it looks so much better in green
As you can see I've also shrunk the leads down to the right size. Who makes these cables which have a massive amount of cable between the SATA leads?
I also braided my PCI-E Power leads in black and green.
I've also mocked up the case ready for riveting but I still have some work to do on that before I'm ready to show
Thanks to my Sponsor MNPCTECH for providing the Sleeving among other things
