Re: Project Cavalier. 56k be warned.
Update:
It now also proudly wears an "Army of one" sticker and a "US Air Force" sticker.
i am thinking of making a plexi or lexan cover for the drive cages, then frosting it and putting 4in cathodes behind them. the cover would have to be removeable though, because i have a strange mounting mechanism (screwless, instead it uses slider things.)
I also want to make a few frosted fan ducts for the rig so that the airflow is more controlled, and also illuminate those (probably with LED's or more 4in cathodes)

also i am considering getting some one-way mirrored plexi to mod my window, and if i do that, then either get the black CM Cavalier or just repaint it (and if i repaint, i will pain the inside too).

Update:
Stealthed my PX-716a and took out the other generic DVD Drive (For my linux machine).
Now there's an open drive cover and it is loud.
I'm probably going to take some metal i have that already has spaced holes and find another front bezel, then cut out the bezel and put some of the mesh behind it, and make it all look pretty with some Cooler master silver paint.

Re: Project Cavalier. 56k be warned.

Re: Project Cavalier. 56k be warned.
hahaha, that's not even a CM case, that's a Thermaltake i think.
Edit: Correction, that is a Tt case. Tsunami Dream.
Anywho, i'll get some pictures up in a few.
Edit:
Pics:
Basic shot. Here you can see the army, USAF and Boost World stickers. The door is closed.
Door's open, showing my stealthed drive and both NASA stickers (there's a third on the other side of the computer =/)
Stealthed drive in action.
That's just about it right now =/
Re: Project Cavalier. 56k be warned.
Nice job on the drive stealthing.
Re: Project Cavalier. 56k be warned.
nice i like it. i think im going to try the same thing on my case
Re: Project Cavalier. 56k be warned.
Thanks, to both of you.
Yeah, believe it or not, stealthing is supposedly one of the easiest mods.
but not if you have a cooler master case.
You have to dremel off quite a few things, and once the drive is set back like that, good luck getting it back into it's original position.
Luckily, the duct tape on the bezel is holding and it aligns damn near perfect.
