Puuuuurty! Damn fine job.
Puuuuurty! Damn fine job.
Im so jealous of ur creativity lol
I am not worthy... I am not worthy....
That is a DAMN fine application! I'm going to run with this one on a later mod, I hope you don't mind? I had a similar idea (2 - 3 mods down right now) and could not get my head around the kinking of the tubes during bending....
BRILLIANT!
thanx guys
i hope this next post give you guys a proper idea of the full effect im after in this mod.
you all seen the mock up and the type oflight effect im after.. but i need to fit the lights in a permanat way but in away that i caan replace one if needed,
here what i came up with for the back panel.
I decided the best way was to groove a channel, with deeper holes @ 5 x intervals to fit the LEDs into. the back plate is an incredible 10mm thick! so a 6mm groove
was no probs and still left enud strenght in the plex.
the full channel, this was first pass the end channel is almost 10mm deep.
small tunnels are drilled for the LEDs to be placed into.
a qik test to see how the light was goin to travel.
this was an early shot but shows how the wire will fit into the channel.
a more final shot...shows how the wire loom will feed thru the base of the pc
the blue/White wires are for the 3 x 5000mcd 5mm LEDs and the red/white wire will be for the 2 x 10,000mCd RED Leds!!!!!

the effect is more than i'd hoped for.... and when finished should look a real treat.
here is the 3 x blue LED's with 2 LEDs also mounted in the floor and one single one lighting up the front fan box.
the HDD is lit only using the back pansl lightes!!!!
the floor will also be a main internal feature, and a groove has been cut out in the shape of the MPC350 pump wich will sit down into the plex.
This shot shows how effectivly the light travels
Now it was time to fire up the 3 10kmcd RED LEDs
you can see just how well this way of lighting works as a feature....and you can see the "bleeding " effect as the red light hits the blue!
The idea will be with a flick of a switch.....to have the internals of HPR3 look as HOT or as COOL as i want!
or
as you seen in these shots a combo of both!!!
