Project: Double Header 3 Step 4 - Case Mod'n
|
|
|

This is going to be a brief ( compared to the other areas of the article I hope) overview of the modding I did to the case. This covers mainly metal work only.

Instead of doing a lot of photoshop work to design a lot, I used more rulers and such due to the exact dimensions I had to fit these 2 120mm Fans and the 3 radiator temp readings on to the side of the case. I did most of this by hand and just doing some good guessing :)
Unfortunately I don't have many if any pic's of me doing all the drawing on the inside of the case to plot the holes.

I went out to Home Depot and picked up a nice 4" Hole saw. I didn't have a drill that could turn this bit so I went over and abused a friends basement attempting to drill 2 4" holes in the case side.

We got one hole done after a bit of work, but we TOTALED the bit in the process. Unsure I was doing something wrong I ran back to Home Depot and picked up a new blade part. Half way through the second hole, the second Bit was fried. Then a light went on in my head.... NO CUTTING OIL. DOH! So we called it off for the day.
Really that's about it for the story on the side door. I took it to a metals shop and they plasma cut the door and the top for me in about 30 min.

They did a good job overall, I had to trim some of the holes via a RotoZip but that's only cause I was a dumb ass and didn't measure it right.
