Stygian (Silverstone RV02 Case Mod)

[reeper250]

Got this Silverstone RV02-E very cheap second-hand so I decided to mod it.

Not sure what hardware is going into this. Might use it as a case for a client build.

Metal working porn, ooooh yes! :dribble:

Yup, there's nothing like the smell of angle grinder sparks in the morning

I set fire to my jeans once doing that. Soon learned not to stand in the way

Haha exactly. My girlfriend said I smelt like smoke and metal... Thank-goodness I didn't catch fire ^_^

That looks like one tasty workshop, I envy you.

There is a lot of good stuff in there to work with because my father used to work on Volkswagen show cars.

Haha, that I haven't managed to accomplish yet. But I once melted some parts of my
fleece jacket with the flying sparks (the fabric is polyester IIRC) :lol:. Still have it and use it
for this kind of stuff though.

Luckily, my dad still has an awesome professional angle grinder from his construction days,
but I just haven't been able to find a good excuse to use it in the last few years (it's not like
a Caselabs requires much work, and everything else was too fine and more suited for the
Dremel)

But that smell :dribble:
