MP40 machine gun handle on Wolfenstein PC

[Bill Owen]

I love creating custom handles for cases. Heres the carry handle I just finished for the "Wolfenstein PC" sponsered by AMD. The handle's core and legs are milled from 3/4" aluminum, the ouitter shell was made from MP40 Pellet gun. The handle is mounted on NZXT's Panzerbox case.

I came into this thread expecting the handle from a MP40 on the case. Little did I know, you meant the entire MP40 was the handle. :rolleyes:

Nice job.

[Bill Owen]

hehe, Thanks for the post neon :up:

Nate started the system install Sunday afternoon. The Thermalright Ultra 120 Extreme Revision A HSF clears the chassis.

Thermalright has since updated the mounting bracket to turn the HSF 90 degrees and avoid blocking DDR in first two slots

[Bill Owen]

Thank you! I'm soo glad I decided to go with the Logitech G15 KB & G7 Mouse instead. ...We just finished airbrushing them this week. all of the custom paint we do is cleared with automotive grade paint for maximum durability.
