Well Its a bit past 11 but here they are. I used 3 sets of case handles from MNPCTECH, Bill just machined out the finger grips for me. They will be black of course what else:) This will also raise the case a bit more allowing for better airflow under the case.

OK I painted the handles black now I could use some opinion on which configuration to use .

I like just the two!
Thanks Matt that seems to be popular opinion here and other forums. Two it will be. :yepp:
hmmm, must agree, the two are the business Ed! :up:

:rolleyes:Took a small break to regroup and look things over now I am going to go back and clean up a few things i do not like. Paint needs some touch up also.
I can not wait to see the motherboard on that Carbon Backround. Maybe some small changes internaly. Updates coming soon.:)
Never seen handles used as feet. Intriguing.
Hi slotrod,
Really enjoying reading your build log, the carbon fibre looks great on the case and really makes it stand out.
Could I ask you a quick favour. Would you be able to measure the external dimensions of the MNPCTECH fan grills for me?
The quality of the fan grill looks very high but how heavy are they. Would they be too heavy to use on the underside of a roof mounted radiator?
Thanks
James
Hi James and thanks for the feedback. Make sure to stop back some cool Carbon additions coming up very soon.
The MNPCTECH rad grills are very light. there 3/16 alum. so no problem for what you want. demensions are 1x120 5 1/2" sq 2x120 10 1/4" x 5 1/2" 3x120 15"x 5 1/2"
And yes they are very high quality.
Hi Slotrod,
Thank you for the measurements, that’s very helpful, as it appears that the fan gills are wider/longer than the fans. For example the fan is 12cm x 12cm where as the single fan grill is 5 1/2" x 5 1/2" (approx 14cm x 14cm). Therefore there would be a 1cm overhang on each side of the fan.
Ideally I would like the fan grill to be flush with the outside of the fan case, something like this MNPCTECH fan grill:

But I guess with the extra space required to enable the central section to rotate a larger fan grill is required. As these fan grills are normally located on the outside of the case (as with your build) the larger dimensions improve the security of mounting to the case and spread out the load.
For atheistic purposes I would like a single grill which would work for three 12cm fans on an interior roof mounted radiator without overlapping the edges of the fans. Perhaps I should drop MNPCTECH and email and see if they could create something like this but as a single piece rather than three separate pieces:

I've subscribed to your thread and look forward to seeing the future updates.
Thanks
James
Give Bill Owen a shout I am sure he can help you. As you seen he did a few Items for me.
Made a change in the look of the front of the case. I have gone back and covered the face plates of the bay items with CARBON.:yepp: They do not look as good here as when they are in the case but I have removed the cage to make a mod for something else I have in mind. As soon as its back in I will post new pics.:cool:

Lookin good Ed! lookin foward to seeing it runnin :cool:
btw: I contacted james offlist :up:
I like the carbonfiber! Nice work Sir! so your running dual pumps on 2 loops? correct? If so will one psu be enough? If so 1200 watts or? Thank you for your answer in advance :)
:D
Thank You for the comments. Yes I am using the AX1200 which should be more then enough to cover the build. I am also using the power adjusts to set pump speed which will help with draw. will not need to be maxed out unless needed.
Please post bigger pic of dogs :D :clap:
