Project: POWERTHIRST
Where to begin?
Well, I haven't built a computer in around 10 years. I've bought a couple since then; a laptop and a netbook, both of which are, shall we say, somewhat lacking in power. I've decided it's time to get back into this myself, and what better way than to mod a case that's 1 of only 500?
The case that will become POWERTHIRST:
For those who don't know, the case is a CoolerMaster Cosmos Black, and mine even came with a rare power supply:
POWERTHIRST: Now with gratuitous amounts of cat-ergy!
I don't have all the parts yet, but I do have the reservoir:
I also have a piece of Paua Shell and some Hematite beads and Malachite beads, the uses of which will be revealed later:
The problem with the Paua Shell was the hole left in it by the metal link it was attached to. This was solved through the use of simple materials:
Yes, you are looking at the picture correctly. The hole was filled with J-B Weld and then I used nail polish to paint over it. I put a clear coat over the whole piece to make it shine.
Next I made some measurements on the front of the case:
Now all the measuring and the Paua Shell make sense:
POWERTHIRST: Now with gratuitous amounts of reflection:
Now it's time to make the first cut. The top of the case before:
And after:
This opening will be fitted with a piece of acrylic later on in the project.
