brilliant fab work... i simply cannot wait too see more progress on this one!
+REP!!!
This is a really neat project and I am learning a lot by reading your log!
Can you link me to where you found the aluminum tubing and connectors?
That is exactly what I need for a project I want to start.
Thanks
Thanks for all those rep points.
Everything is going smoothly at the moment. I can't show you much new stuff, but that doesn't mean I did not do much. I finished the second and third "fingerguard" for the outtakes for instance. A lot of work but you know what it looks like.
I also did some work on the acrylic that will lead the air from the radiator to the outtakes on top of the case.
The acrylic ( with the tape still on ) had to be cut at the top so the lid will fit over.
There is still some tape on the clear acrylic, but that will be removed ofcourse. When removed it will be possible to see through the airduct into the top of the case.
That's not what I want, because I want to use that space to hide cables and some other stuff. So in order to make it almost impossible to look into the case and see the cables I will cover the duct with some black mesh.
Bending the mesh first to fit the tube.
Looks good. It's almost ready to be cut in the same shape as the acrylic.
Next thing I can show you is my design of the logo.
The logo will not be flat but 3-dimensional and I think I will also add some lighting from behind.
Looking really good. What do you use to cut the mesh? I use really sharp tin snips and it works fine, like scissors through paper.

Waiting for some materials from AC Ryan, so I had some time for brainstorming on the logo. I want a simple logo, so I'm not going to use the whole word Evolutionary, just the first three letters E, V and the O. An other thing I wanted to do is making it different from the usual logos. I took some mdf, acrylic and aluminium ( leftover from the Lian Li case from my finished casemod ) and started cutting out the letters.
The E and the V from mdf and acrylic, the O from aluminium.
The acrylic on top of the mdf.
The mdf from the E had to be carved, so it will fit over the V.
Not finished yet, the mdf will be painted and the acrylic will be sanded, but this is what it will look like.
When finished, it will be mounted on a black surface and some leds will bring some light from behind.
Damn this is nice
Yep that looks cool. Nice and chunky. If you were really good you could model co cast some real small ones for screw caps.
