I touch up the rivets after installation. If I can figure out how to get rivets Powdercoated I would try it...but they are getting crushed and that will likely mar the surface.Quote:

hmm....
A teflon or nylon washer between the rivet gun and the rivet head would help prevent marring the surface of prepainted rivets. Prehaps you might be able to locate some black anodized rivets?
yeppers, i saw at ace, they have brown enameled rivets... i'm sure you can find black...
Suscribed :d
Hmm very nice project :up:

is that a 140mm shroud for the 160?
nice! i like how it encloses the entire unit...
That is a nice looking shroud. How did you fabricate it?
looks like plastic sheets... and some really skilled cutting...
awsome paintjob!!
awesome modding! :D
me likes seamless. nice work!
nice progress Cyber - I'll be watching this thread for ideas...
Thanks guys. The shroud is 1/4" acrylic painted to match. It's for a 140mm YL.
Got the acrylic tube for the reservoirs...that will be interesting. Might be able to get out to the shop for a few hours and do some more.
Likewise.Quote:

You can only powdercoat bare metal. Nothing plastic or non conductive will work. PLus it all goes in an oven afterward.
And I know all you OCDers are hung up opn the rivets but guess what...they don't show...you won't see them once the case is assembled...
But point taken on the rivets...I got it: paint rivets..
I guess the Sharpie just didn't cut it :p:
Hey Cyber they do make a black hard anodized rivet, just use a teflon or nylon washer between your rivit and the rvit gun. could save you some time and grief.
I'll see if I can locate some that are countersunk (flat head). This case uses both the typical "pop" rivet with the crowned head and a tapered one with a "flat" head.
The other issue is regardless of what the rivets look like on the outside after you "pop" them there is a shiney piece of the stem in the center. So even if you were to PC or anodize of paint them you still cannot get away from the shiney shine Muhahahahahahahaha cough
You mean you don't drill out what's left of the rivet nail? Think of all that added weight! ;)
On a serious note (relatively speaking) those pesky nails are sometimes the things that can make annoying noise from vibration. Most of the time they're wedged in real good but on occasion, they're loose and can sometimes drive you crazy(er).
I agree. The trapped stem actually is what helps "wedge" them..so drilling is a no no.Quote:

Every case has it's strong points and for the Cosmos I think it's the bottom to top airflow on the technical side and aesthetically it's the heavy, sound-dampened side panels on gaskets in sculptured curvaceous trims that hide a very rectilinear and standard chassis. I mean the chassis is fairly heavy where it needs to be and there is a lot of thought about making it rigid and :rolleyes: vibration free....
Tomorrow I will be left to me own most of the day so I should have no excuses and expect to get enough of the case together to see what some custom cylinder reservoirs up top would look like. I am thinking "Missile Launcher" :D
Oooooh, sign me up for one of those! Stupid pigeons are starting to roost on my balcony again, but maybe this year I'll be ready (evil laugh)...Quote:

Go to a craft store, of all places, and look at their paint section. (Like JoAnn's or the like...or online, like linked below.) They'll probably have a fair selection of Sharpie paint pens.....different colors and tip widths, like ultra fine point, fine point, medium, wide (chisel) tip.....colors are like gloss black, silver, gold, copper, to name a few.
I've tried all sorts of touch-up painting options, like car touch-up paint w/the little brushes in the cap, but no other option has the control of the Sharpie paint pen/sticks.
They come in water and oil based paint......couple of links:
Link to Sharpie's website
Link to online store with probably better pics
Good job with the shroud. Looks perfect.
Thanks. I will check out the Xtreme Sharpies right now ;)
Yes the shroud should do the job. It will tie into the HDD display panel and the Optical Bay side trim...
I just ordered three sets in Medium Fine and Extra Fine. I had not seen Oil Base Paint Sharpies before..that's going to be very useful. Now when I meet Bill Owen I can have him sign my Cordless Drill...
Unless it has something to do with the air up here in Canada, I find sharpies to have a slight blue-black tint when applied to some metal. This is especially true on anodized aluminum (of course we're talking a black finish here). I tested most of the permanent markers available and found what until this moment, I referred to as my secret touch up weapon.
behold...

Going together nicely so far. Maybe tomorrow I can work out the reservoir idea now that I have something to go toward...
ooo this is gettting better all the time.
Heavy metal, now poetry, and a crazy wild rig in the works to boot!
Think I'll make some popcorn and stay tuned for the finale.
Haha, glad to see you went with a 140mm fan on the PA160 :up:
yep I might be stubborn but I can tell Xtreme when I hear it...
Great work CD! Even though I've looked at this a lot, I still find the triple rad mounting idea pure genius :up:
I got the Raptor X drives mounted. It worked out very nice. I used a Scythe Anti-Vibration HDD mount on the top drive and drilled and tapped that to be attached to the support above...the lip of the support secures the Scythe plate and I used a grommet and thumbscrew to sock it down.
The second Raptor X is mounted to the first drive using a joining plate I fabricated from aluminum. I cushioned the drive-to-drive mount with a piece of foam tape. Then The second drive get's the other half of the Scythe mount and presses firmly into the chassis floor where I use a strip of industrial Velcro to secure it.
To remove the drives one undoes the single thumbscrew and tilts them out through the non window side of the case.
There is plenty of airflow provided from the exhaust of the PA160 into the chamber and plenty of room for the pumps that now need to be located.
The drives look so right I am thinking about skipping the acrylic fascia piece.
I need to change out my camera at BB for a better model...and then pictures.
With the HDD mount out of the way it's now just a matter of locating pumps and getting blocks mounted onto the board so I can precisely lay out the loop.
Yeah...
That post is worthless without pics...
:p:
Do you want to do something like this? :up:
I talking about the Raptor X.
http://img171.imageshack.us/img171/6...0817uw2.th.jpg
It's already done yhou'll just have to wait a lil bit to see :). Also got the the three pumps mounted and the supply lines on them. Now it's time to sort out the reservoir..which will be an interesting project. New Camera is charging...pics soon.

Yep I am thinking it looks good enough to not have to hide anything with acrylic after all.
Oh yeah, that's the stuff!
I like that hard drive set-up too.
I believe that's one of those modded Sunbeam controllers from your site, no? I was eyeing one of those the other day, but wasn't sure how it would fit into the Cosmos with the tight front door. But the fit looks real nice!
Lookin' good CD!
Wots that in the top bay above the optical drive? Looks like a bill changer but I can't see where the coins come out. ;)
I can't wait to see the cable management.
Thats called a floppy drive. :p: :clap:Quote:

Btw, can we fit a 3x120mm radiator on top of the classic Cosmos 1000 without any mods? I know a 2x120mm fits perfectly fine :)
Just got a couple triple fesers, so I can confirm that it JUST fits into the thin part of the tapered opening towards the front of the case top (once that black vented thing is popped off), leaving almost 3 inches to spare from the rear. Not sure about other brands.
OMG! Absolutely beautiful! great work cd! i never imagined it would turn out that way..
love the raptor mod mate looks great
this build is going to be epic!
Nice pictures...... ;)
How you going to cool the raptors???? My Raptor in that position was in 47ºC without any cooler. But then I put a cooler and the temperature down to 35ºC....
The raptors are a very very hot HDD.
47C is not anything to worry about. It's fluctuations in temp that kill HDDs. The air coming of the central rad and the fan above the chamber will provide plenty of cooling there.
FlyingA2 provided plenty of "real" hardware...and that will be coming along presently. If you check the first page you will see a mountain of gear that goes in here...
But no sense in breaking out anything until I have gotten the loops sorted a bit more. I want to get the reservoirs going first.
Awesome CD!!Quote:

You should mod the sunbeam rheobus in to the stock drive covers and stealth the cd drive.
Dunno why, buy they way they sit farther back than the stock covers kinda erked me. :p:
That's a good point. As it is I have the SnnBeam about 1/4" further back than the adjacent drive so the door will close...the stock mesh bay cover would hide that and also dim those BRIGHT LEDs. I'll give it a try.
looks good CD, like to see your next photos. I've tried to mod my Antec 900 but my wife always roles her eyes at me until i'm done so she can look at facebook and check her damn emails.
"There's a lot of stuff going into this case"
For some reason it made me laugh when you said that, almost as if it just hit you what you are actually stuffing in there.
Love the raptor mount. I don't remember from the beginning threads, but is he tossing in a couple storage hdd's in there? If so where are you mounting them?
There's one Storage drive in there...mounted in the optical bay above a fan.
Nice job on the RC-1000 there.
I've been working on one of my Cosmos cases as well, its still WIP stage ATM, as I'm awaiting parts.
Been toying with where to place a triple and a double rad, so seeing this has helped with ideas.
BigDK
is there a worklog somewhere?
I did start to do a log, and typed up all the detail, and then lovely FireFox/Vista 64 combo decided to hang again so I lost the lot, I then just cracked on with it. Being Mr Impatient, I didn't take any photos until I got to stage in photo in sig.
Have just started a work log from here in, as there is plenty to go until it's all finished, and from here in its going to have to slow down a bit (parts on order etc...)
Just started now
BTW not trying to hijack here:)

Started the reservoir by making some templates from 1/4" birch ply. This is the front part of the rack.
http://img404.imageshack.us/img404/2...sres054dr6.jpg
Three 1-3/4" cylinders will rest in the niches.
http://img168.imageshack.us/img168/5...sres052ib7.jpg
To give some perspective.
http://img186.imageshack.us/img186/9...sres055wv8.jpg
http://img185.imageshack.us/img185/4...sres060eq2.jpg
The back part will be fused to the cylinders and ported for inlet/outlet.
http://img341.imageshack.us/img341/1...sres062wb1.jpg
To get a better/thicker template I wanted to route the part out of 1/4" acrylic first. I bond the acrylic to the ply using a strong tape adhesive from 3M.
http://img404.imageshack.us/img404/4...sres063px1.jpg
I used the bandsaw to rough out most of the material to keep the router fropm grabbing.
http://img80.imageshack.us/img80/555...sres065ii8.jpg
Routing acrylic is a serious mess...
http://img404.imageshack.us/img404/7...sres069kz5.jpg
I then used my doubled templates to make the parts from 1/2" acrylic.
http://img80.imageshack.us/img80/551...sres070wi1.jpg
Here is how they rest on the top rails.
http://img404.imageshack.us/img404/4...sres072qv0.jpg
I cut the tubes to an appropriate length and tape them in place to have a look.
http://img185.imageshack.us/img185/3...sres073us4.jpg
http://img80.imageshack.us/img80/969...sres074va0.jpg
I canted the center one upward to give it some attitude...
http://img229.imageshack.us/img229/8...sres076bd0.jpg
http://img393.imageshack.us/img393/6...sres077lo8.jpg
I'll port the back plate and glue in a divider and hand sand the tubes to the exact bevel...which is just a few degrees. It would have beeneasier to have all the tubes the same angle but anybody could do it that way...
http://img80.imageshack.us/img80/421...sres078rd3.jpg
http://img80.imageshack.us/img80/639...sres079il3.jpg
These ends get 1/2 spheres of acrylic fused to them. First I will counterbore a flat and then drill and tap the 1/2 spheres for G-1/4 plugs--the acrylic ones that accept a 5mm LED...
http://img229.imageshack.us/img229/7...sres081wq7.jpg
So 6 tubes will come up and mate to barbs here. This way the res unit can be tilted upright to fill or even downward to drain.
http://img80.imageshack.us/img80/289...sres084vl6.jpg
I might change the profile of the rack..I have plenty of material and something might occur to me as I sit on my duff pimping out my modz...
:rolleyes: Hijack that :D
beastly!
The tube I got is really something...true .25" wall on it and optical clarity...certainly worth the high dollar. Drilling and tapping the 1/2 spheres is going to be tricky...I got extras...
Well played CD.
Now you've really got my attention. It's a bold move putting those cylinders up there and I'm fascinated to see how this is going to turn out. You've got a soufflé there that is going to go one of two ways visually... I think the key will be how the hoses connect and what you do to "finish" the look. If you find yourself adding more stuff to make it "work" then you know you're in trouble.
As Tim Gunn from Project Runway would say: "make it work". :)
wow..its like missiles ready to launch. ;-)
OH MY GOD
CD, you continually out do your self... I generally hate the look of reservoirs, but those just changed my mind!
They look wicked, and I think they go well with the roll cage.
It needs something. The parts that rest on the rail are what catch my eye in a bad way...they seem too round and obtrrusive. I can easily alter that shape and change it from convex to concave...or something.Quote:

man that is so SICK!!!
great!
Have you already decided what colour your coolant is going to be?
Red and Black. I was also going to have a clear loop but I think red and black will be the nicest.
A Red and black color scheme, my favorite! Great work so far as usual, CyberDruid.
excellent quality work SIR! Perfection

Don't get excited...I'm not making a "Special" Mother's Day gift for the wife...I decided to cap the cylinder reservoirs with 1/2 spheres...and drill and tap them for plugs...such fun.
http://img207.imageshack.us/img207/8687/dsc00295ed6.jpg
A simple fixture.
http://img153.imageshack.us/img153/9062/dsc00296dg6.jpg
I'll adhere the spheres to the squares of ply.

http://img186.imageshack.us/img186/2812/dsc00303za8.jpg
I followed the Forstner bit with an 11.8 drill bit and then tapped it with a BSPP 1/4. I took a few tries as the material did not tap well.
http://img153.imageshack.us/img153/3862/dsc00316zb8.jpg
They will go here.
http://img151.imageshack.us/img151/7849/dsc00318cv8.jpg

http://img152.imageshack.us/img152/8998/dsc00323rk1.jpg
Taped a pair of tubes together to get an exact bevel (10 degrees in this case) on the mitre saw.
http://img186.imageshack.us/img186/3257/dsc00328pi4.jpg
After trimming the center tube to the appropriate angle I laid out marks for the ports. They would have to be very close together...
http://img151.imageshack.us/img151/9058/dsc00333vc5.jpg
I made sure I got them all drilled and tapped and counterbored for Oring fittings before I bothered with the final sanding and edging...suprisingly the 1/2" material tapped well...
http://img152.imageshack.us/img152/7774/dsc00334hk5.jpg
The threads came out nice.
http://img186.imageshack.us/img186/8523/dsc00336vi3.jpg
http://img153.imageshack.us/img153/9185/dsc00339cd5.jpg
I did some sanding with the spindle sander to make the back plate follow the bend of the rails better and get it locked in to the receding angle.
http://img151.imageshack.us/img151/1779/dsc00342wr2.jpg
http://img152.imageshack.us/img152/9259/dsc00344ow3.jpg
The only way I could really check all three angles to see if they closed up was bay applying some clamping force...and the only way I could do that effectively was with a Spanish Windlass type contraption using some wire and blocks.
I gotta tell you I made it hard on myself my adding the jaunty angle and the canted center cylinder...getting the three tubes to line up to the front rack and the backplate took about 3 hours...and endless fiddling with the clamp set up...
http://img186.imageshack.us/img186/3354/dsc00355qm0.jpg
Once I was satisfied that the three tubes would line up and needed to make some dividers to keep the return from cavitating the supply. I probably should have made them out of clear to be less obtrusive but on a whim I went with flourescent red-orange for the reservoirs with black fluid and black for the reservoir with red fluid.
http://img242.imageshack.us/img242/7356/dsc00356ic2.jpg
Here's another place I made it hard...by having a bevel the tube will only align in one position on the backplate...the divider needs to run horizontal and split the ports...this required a lot more testing and fitting and some tiny marks to get right...
http://img145.imageshack.us/img145/6539/dsc00359ty0.jpg
After much annoyance and several attempts I got the three cylinders adhered to the back plate. The water thin solvent I usually use was not doing the job...and I had to start over and re sand everything and use Weldon 26...a thick-bodied methylacrylate adhesive/solvent...not nearly as pretty and ALWAYS drips on something...so I protected the rig as I did the work.
http://img152.imageshack.us/img152/7412/dsc00364un2.jpg
Once the backplate had stopped screwing with me I was able to adjust the front rack and glue that to the tubes. This will stabilize the entire assembly.
http://img153.imageshack.us/img153/4889/dsc00371xp0.jpg
Got the nose cones glued on easily..that was one of the few easy parts...I just set the unit vertical and plopped them on.
I did a sort of destruction test with a spare piece of tube and mistapped nosecone I had glued up with the water thin solvent..it would not seperate even after a severe beating on the bench...(on video lol).
http://img242.imageshack.us/img242/9236/dsc00375vt0.jpg
So it needs to sit up for 24 hours and then I am going to pressure test it and see if it leaks.
http://img338.imageshack.us/img338/7510/dsc00381mg2.jpg
There are some things I need to dial in a bit... the glue got out of hand and made some smudges on the backplate...nothing I can't do away with...but I want to make sure the res is functional before I doll it up any further.
http://img151.imageshack.us/img151/6711/dsc00382ma1.jpg
Looks pretty good to me...
http://img338.imageshack.us/img338/3694/dsc00383ji8.jpg
That's insane.
Unbelievable work:up:
It has been like pulling teeth to find the span of time I knew this would take. Between playing Mister GreenJeans with the yardwork and minding the kids and doing some special projects for Mother's Day...it's been an uphill climb. But today I got about 10 hours in without interruption and that was awesome...
I can see how a nice long stretch could really help for something that ambitious.
That's a whack of work to pack into even 10 hours tho. Very impressive stuff, man.

Well it's a start...sometimes I find a day away gives me a chance to see all the hideous flaws so much better...but I do like the concept...I think I would have to simplify it to right angles if I ever do it again...the bevels add too much uncertainty in the glue up..twist them a 1/16" one way or the other and they don't line up or seal...so they have to be glued in place...what a mess. 90 degree cut and I could easily have set them onto the base plate on the bench and glued them up without all the conniptions...
cd i'm really impressed mate those res's are great...
your modding skills never cease to amaze me.
Well considering that this build is about 5 weeks off schedule I can only hope that the results will offset the wait.

Top class work there, I admire the skills it takes to produce work like that:clap:
Well I did not like how the res looked in the cold light of day...so I fired up the Krups.
When in doubt Brew Up is a motto I can live with.
I took the whole thing apart and totally reworked it...sometimes you just gotta do what you gotta do...
I worked my butt off and got the resrevoir completed and it's much tidier...

Looks great so far. Just a odd question, what is supporting the support for the tubes? From the looks of the pictures they are just resting on the bars. Are you going to permanently attach them or is the plan for them to just rest on the top?
Love how the tube reservoirs work with the long shape of the rails, especially from the front angle views. This is fun to watch!
Hey Cyber do you have a knee mill?
