A full weekend filled with modding, nice!

Mostly been working on the front. Just got it finished and it feels very good. Not much left now before it goes off to paint / brush / anodize. Needs some holes, a cover etc. But I'm starting to see a light in the end of the tunnel.

Pics of todays update, here ya go!

Cut out a hole in the front bezel for the Alphacool LCD display.


Fits snuggly


Got mounting holes drilled for the display and also cut out a opening for the DVD reader.


Tried it on the case to see that things fit as they should.


Going for a stealthed DVD reader. Had to make this piece separately. Took a bit of work to get it perfect but I nailed it I think.


Cut out a hole for the grill in the front. Also got the mounting holes drilled.


Positioned the front bezel on the front panel and drilled all the mounting holes.


Also cut out a hole for the grille in the front panel. Filed and sanded it a bit.


With grill and all the new holes I tried the fit of the front on the frame.


Tried a flash-pic. Normally the flash will enhance any defects such as scratches etc. But as you can see I've managed to keep the case from getting any.


Cover for the LCD display marked out.


Cut out and drilled. Also tried a little brushing.


And drilled a hole for the power button.


Front completed.


And a test fit on the case with the outer panel positioned. Looks cool
