Extreme Lian Li II

amazing work Edie!

Thank you all for the compliments.

Some more file work to do.

This time I do not using the iron with the file job.

http://www.ediejo.nl/Foto/ELL2/121.JPG

That aluminum from AC-Ryan is very good to handle.

http://www.ediejo.nl/Foto/ELL2/122.JPG

First part done.

http://www.ediejo.nl/Foto/ELL2/123.JPG

But enough to do.

http://www.ediejo.nl/Foto/ELL2/124.JPG

http://www.ediejo.nl/Foto/ELL2/125.JPG

I like t.

http://www.ediejo.nl/Foto/ELL2/126.JPG

At last the long small peace.

Sanding and polishing is for tomorrow.

http://www.ediejo.nl/Foto/ELL2/134.JPG

http://www.ediejo.nl/Foto/ELL2/135.JPG

See you soon.

Today some sanding and polishing to do.
Starting with dry sanding.

http://www.ediejo.nl/Foto/ELL2/136.JPG

And ready with dry sanding.

http://www.ediejo.nl/Foto/ELL2/137.JPG

Continue with wet sanding.

http://www.ediejo.nl/Foto/ELL2/138.JPG

Than polishing.

http://www.ediejo.nl/Foto/ELL2/139.JPG

Almost ready, but it’s too late to continue. Tomorrow I must work early.

http://www.ediejo.nl/Foto/ELL2/140.JPG

Here you can see the difference between the two parts.

http://www.ediejo.nl/Foto/ELL2/141.JPG

Here even better.

http://www.ediejo.nl/Foto/ELL2/142.JPG

But that’s for tomorrow.

http://www.ediejo.nl/Foto/ELL2/143.JPG

http://www.ediejo.nl/Foto/ELL2/144.JPG

See you soon.

It's gonna look so good once all lit up with that polished aluminum and the green plexi... :eek:

Finishing the polishing work at the back side, that’s for next week.
Today I start with the front. First thing is taking out the mesh part for a moment.. Sorry Lian Li.

Drill a hole.

http://www.ediejo.nl/Foto/ELL2/145.JPG

And then with the jig saw.

http://www.ediejo.nl/Foto/ELL2/146.JPG

Don’t look good.

http://www.ediejo.nl/Foto/ELL2/147.JPG

Take the file. (again)

http://www.ediejo.nl/Foto/ELL2/148.JPG

It’s not 100% straight (right corner at the top)

http://www.ediejo.nl/Foto/ELL2/149.JPG

But that’s for later.

http://www.ediejo.nl/Foto/ELL2/150.JPG

http://www.ediejo.nl/Foto/ELL2/151.JPG

http://www.ediejo.nl/Foto/ELL2/152.JPG

This is the beginning from the front there will come more plexi inside and some mesh. The color black will also disappear.

But that’s for next week this weekend I go to Zandvoort A1 GP.:rocker:

Have a nice weekend all and see you next week. ;)

God damit this is some awesome modding there!

Another great mod, as usual. Great goings Ed :)

@Patriote, thanks.

@TRG, I hope I can beat the first one. ;)

And continue with the front panel. It starts to looks boring. Again file work to do.

http://www.ediejo.nl/Foto/ELL2/153.JPG

http://www.ediejo.nl/Foto/ELL2/154.JPG

Between the file job. I have some time to drill.

http://www.ediejo.nl/Foto/ELL2/155.JPG

And file it again.

http://www.ediejo.nl/Foto/ELL2/156.JPG

Only the sanding part to do.

http://www.ediejo.nl/Foto/ELL2/157.JPG

http://www.ediejo.nl/Foto/ELL2/158.JPG

http://www.ediejo.nl/Foto/ELL2/159.JPG

There is also some plexi behind the holes from the buttons. Now you think maybe why?

http://www.ediejo.nl/Foto/ELL2/160.JPG

These are really nice buttons. Because they have an edge on the bottom.

http://www.ediejo.nl/Foto/ELL2/161.JPG

Now you can see the plexi. And the buttons are working well.

http://www.ediejo.nl/Foto/ELL2/162.JPG

I put some light behind it to see the effect.

http://www.ediejo.nl/Foto/ELL2/163.JPG

http://www.ediejo.nl/Foto/ELL2/164.JPG

http://www.ediejo.nl/Foto/ELL2/165.JPG

See you soon.

Looking brilliant. There a great green glow of it too.

@cian1500ww, thanks

And continue with the front. Make a copy from the first part.

http://www.ediejo.nl/Foto/ELL2/166.JPG

And that one will come here. On the case.

http://www.ediejo.nl/Foto/ELL2/167.JPG

Marking the holes for sawing and drilling.

http://www.ediejo.nl/Foto/ELL2/168.JPG

And the saw job is done.

http://www.ediejo.nl/Foto/ELL2/169.JPG

On the case.

http://www.ediejo.nl/Foto/ELL2/170.JPG

Still some work to do.

http://www.ediejo.nl/Foto/ELL2/171.JPG

This time complete by hand.

http://www.ediejo.nl/Foto/ELL2/172.JPG

That’s fit.

http://www.ediejo.nl/Foto/ELL2/173.JPG

http://www.ediejo.nl/Foto/ELL2/174.JPG

http://www.ediejo.nl/Foto/ELL2/175.JPG

http://www.ediejo.nl/Foto/ELL2/176.JPG

Maybe I use this radgrill.

http://www.ediejo.nl/Foto/ELL2/178.JPG

http://www.ediejo.nl/Foto/ELL2/179.JPG

http://www.ediejo.nl/Foto/ELL2/180.JPG

See you soon.

You're brilliant at the filing, hard to get good square and even edges. Well done !

@cain1500ww, thanks for the compliment. ;)

Looks nice, but I think the radgrill without the heatkiller logo's will look even better :) will give it a cleaner/sleeker look.

Everything else looks great :D, this is going to be another eyecatcher, superb modding Ed :)

This morning I visit Point of View for a cup of coffee. No cookie at the coffee this time, but a nice suitcase.

http://www.ediejo.nl/Foto/ELL2/182.JPG

Some people will remember it from the Carbon Li.
1100Watt straight power. I love this one. The cables are no problem I go for quality. ;)

http://www.ediejo.nl/Foto/ELL2/183.JPG

Only the Point of View edition this time.. Tagan make good powersuplys.. I think it’s a good decision from Point of View to cooperate with Tagan.

http://www.ediejo.nl/Foto/ELL2/184.JPG

http://www.ediejo.nl/Foto/ELL2/185.JPG

No mod update this time. I was too late at home.

great work so far!

@illidan, thanks for the compliment.

And continue with the front. I make some plexi to mount the 2 reservoirs.

http://www.ediejo.nl/Foto/ELL2/186.JPG

I need the edges from the original front. So I can place the reservoirs exactly in the center.

http://www.ediejo.nl/Foto/ELL2/187.JPG

I use the standard mounting plates only for drawing.

http://www.ediejo.nl/Foto/ELL2/188.JPG

http://www.ediejo.nl/Foto/ELL2/189.JPG

Dan saw the plexi.

http://www.ediejo.nl/Foto/ELL2/190.JPG

http://www.ediejo.nl/Foto/ELL2/191.JPG

http://www.ediejo.nl/Foto/ELL2/192.JPG

Filing and sanding.

http://www.ediejo.nl/Foto/ELL2/193.JPG

http://www.ediejo.nl/Foto/ELL2/194.JPG

That’s fit well.

http://www.ediejo.nl/Foto/ELL2/195.JPG

http://www.ediejo.nl/Foto/ELL2/196.JPG

http://www.ediejo.nl/Foto/ELL2/197.JPG

http://www.ediejo.nl/Foto/ELL2/198.JPG

Almost the same as the plexi from the front. But this is to hide the plexi for a part.

http://www.ediejo.nl/Foto/ELL2/199.JPG

Again filing.

http://www.ediejo.nl/Foto/ELL2/200.JPG

Also the small holes.

http://www.ediejo.nl/Foto/ELL2/201.JPG

http://www.ediejo.nl/Foto/ELL2/202.JPG

The black anodized will be removed. And it will be polishing.

http://www.ediejo.nl/Foto/ELL2/203.JPG

http://www.ediejo.nl/Foto/ELL2/204.JPG

See you soon.

I guess that Deamon Tools and a fileserver could do the job, or a USB/Firewire external DVD drive placed on the desktop...

But nice to notice that. That thought never crossed my mind, as I'm stunned by the quality work of this mod :up:

USB DVD?

What about the expansion slots at the back?
