PV's Project AquAus -- 56K WARNING --

[FragTek]

Thanks markkleb

Forgot to post this yesterday, but added Scythe Kama Meter (thermal probes haven't been connected yet) and additional UV lighting above the res. Extra pics can be seen in my rig gallery too

Muahaha, how u like that Kama mate?? Pretty sweet aint she? Only stupid thing about it is the volume control, complete crap tbh.

Yeah that's the only thing that lets it down, apart from that though mate - she's a beaut

Update false floor completion estimated today. Anyone know what the best way is to stencil text outline onto checker plate? Will triplicate carbon paper do, or even tracing paper? markkleb...??? All ideas appreciated and tia

 

[markkleb]

Hello PV..

have you tried to stencil it on the back side?

Can you show me a pict?

 

[PV5150]

hi markkleb, and thanks for the swift response.

have you tried to stencil it on the back side?

I was thinking of doing that...like making up a stencil of it and then using my dremel's etching tool to do the outline. Without giving too much away, I'm wanting to cut out the text and use it for a subtle lighting effect from the floor. As soon as I get back to the comp, I'll pm you a pic of what I'm trying to accomplish.

Am keen to find out how this looks PV....may have do do the same to my G70 to hide my psu cables.

 

[PV5150]

little update.

Added second pump finally and false floor/bulkhead to hide the wiring. You'll notice that the flouro orange wires aren't hidden when the false floor was supposed to, right! Well I was waiting for some extra 120mm fans to arrive for my 120.3 (they arrived today after I had almost assembled); so the wiring will be hidden tomorrow once the new fans are added to the loom (for now, they are just crammed in at the front end of the case - please excuse). The bulkhead which I built to hide all the PSU cables will have its face polished tomorrow. For those who were waiting for the floor lighting effect, you will have to wait probably another week. I'll post pics when done.

Nice work Peevs.

Think it'll look awesome when all the wires are hidden

 

[all4spl]

wow great job soo far!!!!

 

[markkleb]

I like the look of the panel covering the floor, Bet it would be fun to make a industrial looking case completely out of it.

Thanks markkleb

Little update

My stuff finally arrived from Petra's tech....Australia post grrrrr. It arrived about half an hour ago which makes it too late to install my bits, it'll have to wait until I get my other half day on Thursday

 

[Toxcity]

Ill be waiting for it matey!

 

[markkleb]

Looking forward to the update. I really love the GREAT service of Petras, too bad the Australia post had to slow it down

 

[PV5150]

Yeah they are very efficient and pro-customer, I can't fault them

 

[NickS]

Petras FTW!

 

[PV5150]
