I'm at home now, so I don't have acess to all the tools I need, so I havn't made much progress.
I put all of the case bits I had together, and took some photos...:

Looking good Mankz! :up:
I love how small the cube is, the MM cubes are to big but this one is just right.
Colors should be fine, keep us updated!
Looks awesome! I personally love the smaller cubes (hence the MM H2G0 I have) and I am liking the look of it a lot. :)
That is really beautiful work! I sometimes wish I had access to all those tools, but then I realize that I probably wouldn't have time to make use of them. :shrug:
Will you be able to blow or vacuum out the rad? Or, are you planning to put some kind of filtering on there? I am always amazed at the amount of crud that builds up in my rad's fins, even on a monthly basis.
more!
A teaser?? You call that a teaser!!?!!?!?!?!
I WANT MORE PICS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :D
HEHE, you get what you deserve Parker...:D
Nothing more until after the weekend folks, sorry! I'll give you all a clue, its got something to do with the motherboard.
is it xtreme backplate for mounting purposes?
Nope.. (I'm making one for my phase system though!)
No room in my home for a workshop of that scale. But that's ok because I'm here admiring your stunning handiwork! Well done acrylic looks incredible, and I look forward to watching this come together.
Mobo plate with green UV reative akryl plate on backside for prettyness?
^^ Bingo
Well, it’s been quite a while since I’ve updated this project, but GCSE’s, work and sport have really gotten in the way of this project, which has actually been really fun to design and manufacture. My GCSE’s are primarily in May, and it looks like I have about 20 free days while I have access to the laser cutter during June, when I’m planning to do most of the work.
So, moving onto the project, I have decided for the n’th time to change back to an mATX layout, still using the two layers. Now, though, there will be the second radiator on the top level, although I am still undecided about whether to use single or dual loops for the cooling. I will be using an external DVD drive to both save space in the bottom layer and because I can then have the PC on a separate desk with the DVD drive over by my screen. Moving onto the reservoir, I was never really 100% happy with overall outcome, so I’ll be redoing that too, this time using separate layers of 10mm and 3mm acrylic, instead of using panels to construct it. The 3mm will be coloured and etched. As for hardware, most probably Intel, and I’m quite taken by the Asus P5E-VM G35i motherboard, as it has the features of an ATX board, but with mATX sizing. However, by the time I’m ready to install it, there should be G43i and G45i motherboards available, which should be good.
Anywho, thats where things are for the time being...
As always, thanks to my sponsors, who have helped me greatly throughout this project so far:

This is so cruel, a teaser on 3-01 and nothing since then!
I'm sorry. It seems I like to make people suffer.
Once the rad is finished, next port of call is the PSU. How about a 1KW Silverstone Strider with all cables done murder-box style-ee.
