Re: My Plexiglass PSU mod
Prep for painting
And after a few coats
While that was drying I was going to try and give the glass that "frosted" semi-transparent look, which I really dig.
It Soon came to me that that method was not going to do, so I made a sanding block which worked quite well.
Came out better than I was expecting.
I let the black coat dry two days before adding the clear coat, and then let it dry for another two days before moving on.
Ready to apply the glass to the casing. I used some type of super adhesive, which worked suprisingly well.
I used a mini soda can to weigh down the glass and give it constant pressure.
(this is the only thing I find those damn things good for)
The resoldering job
Oh, and also I thought it would be nice to hide the power connections, so I bought some black 3/4" wire loom at Kragen Auto Parts.
(not my idea)
And the finished product...
and in the comp.
with my CCFLs off
and then with them on (camera sucks, my cold cathlodes are accualy very purple! and aren't nearly as bright as the picture displays)
Thats it!
thanks for Reading!
