Base Pieces Assembled, Center Airflow Divider in Place, GPU Fans Mount in Place

Time for a few more updates. I got all of the holes drilled, countersunk, tapped, etc. on the new pieces. It took like 8 hours just to drill, countersink, tap, and sand all of the holes. I don't have the bottom riveted on at this point as I don't want to keep having to drill them out to make adjustments. I also sanded all of the pieces with 60 grit just to do an initial sanding. I will go back and sand them all down to probably 150 grit before they get powdercoated.











As you can see from the pics, I also got the center air divider cut and mounted. In order for the screws to have something to thread into and hold, I had to JBWeld on some nuts. This is because I had to sand down the ends to adjust it so that it would fit properly, and the ends were just too thin to hold a thread.







I also made a mount to hold the 2 GPU fans out of 1/8” smoked acrylic.



Here are a couple of shots of the holes for the ATX power cable so you can see how they fit with the divider.





I next have to make a mount for the fan controller.

Thanks for stopping by.
