Project: Boom Tube

[SgtM]

Awesome! I gotta spread some rep around..

I was going to update this tonight, but while cutting out the motherboard backplate I killed my Craftsman rotary tool. It lasted 5 years too.

I guess I'll have to get a new one tomorrow.

I don't like the Dremel brand, because I always kill them within 10 months or so. This time I needed something to work with so I got the Dremel 4000. It's supposedly their "high perfomance" model, so hopefully it'll last a little longer.

I cut out the IO port and it was a dusty adventure

After getting it inside the tube I soon realize how obvious the wiring is going to be

[StormRider]

I'm sure you'll figure out some insanely awesome way to do it

[TheGreatSatan]

I already have. With another tube!

[StormRider]

Oh great. Now your mod will start curving reality around it

Heheh, I like.

I haven't posted in a while, but I have been working on this from time to time.

The 200mm fan on one end has been sealed n place with clear silicon and yes, since it's purple it only makes sense to use purple everywhere else too

[TheGreatSatan]

I still have to wire in the power switch somewhere

I zip tied all the cables to the underside of the motherboard tray, put in two UV cathodes and added another (80mm) fan too.

Its mostly to pull air off the RAM and chipset and to add another source of purple lights in the case
