Awesome window mod for the Raptor

trying to figure out some sort of design as a window. i need some ideas.. i was going to just make it a circle but when i think about it, it would look retarded lol

i think im going to either paint the plexi black, and leave only some designs as a window for the raptor, or tint it black

so throw out some ideas for a window!

I think you should leave it as it is.

[evil-98]

a big clear window? really?

[evil-98]

heres my preliminary design.. super simple. basic logo design and layout

absolutely stumped to what to put as a window if any.. im disappointed
with myself lol.. especially as a graphics designer x_x its just been a long
day at work.. how creative can you get right..

[Friedchicken]

... i did start my front panel, its sort of a mock up. right now its obviously just plexi but i hope to get something laser cut in the future which isnt likely unless i can find some locals that can do it for cheap also added some mesh to the little 3.5" bay. switches will still be there just havent decided what the switch is going to do.

Hey evil. great work. I can tell you spent a lot of time on your build. If you are looking for someone to fab up a TJ07 front panel, talk to Charles at murderbox to see if he can get you one made with your logo.

He was able to do one for me for my project:

I was trying to find a good shop to make me a panel a while ago for my other case and it was challenging to find someone who would do a one-off without dropping stupid money.

[biftek.]

I'd do some sort of vertical bar design.

I'll try and through something together

do you have a pic of yours? that would be interesting to see.
also what did he charge you?
yea its going to be a challenge to find a place that will do it for a fair
price but its worth a shot before settling.
if murderbox can do it for a fair price im willing to spend that cash.

thanks for your input

designing at work

Tint it black, then throw in some white LED's/cathodes in front of the raptor. Turning them off will hide the raptor, then you can flip them on and show it off.

theres a group of UV LEDs mounted above the drive and had the same idea
with the hidden drive till lights went out

No problem! It's getting made as we speak. It comes with a stealth optical door cover and back-light/mounting kit. It really sets the front panel off. I should be able to send you a PM once I get it early next week.

As for what it cost me, maybe connect with Charles@murderbox and he can tell you how much your custom lettering would cost?

very cool ok thanks

[biftek.]

Okay here's some stuff I just threw together.

I made the lines in the first to thick and it now reminds me of transformers :P
The second one was just a recycled idea that I've been thinking would be cool lasered.
Third was just me messing around with your name and would be highly complicated to actually do :P
and the 4th is just a modified circle design :/

I was more or less just bored so feel free to modify or use anything you wish. These are pretty basic aside from the evil one, which I really like

[BNDMOD]

Suscribed.. very nice clean and really good hand :d

I'm having the same problem as you with the sounth bridge on the Striker II Formula

Just emailed Eddy now, he found a solution that will work?

[evil-98]

@biftek.: hey i like the slot idea, very nice. gives me an idea thanks!

@everyone else: lol thanks, i put alot of effort in everthing i do

ok, small update. just playing with some stuff. spent alot of time think
and trying to figure out what and how im going to get everything done
got some issues..

1. rad (space, placement, tube route, radgrill)
2. res (placement, tube route, expected a rev1)
3. pump (placement, makes weird noises, sort of fixed check out the videos)

Pump Vid1
Pump Vid2

somethings that might need to get explain that arent clear in the pics

im relocating a the fan controller to the back next to the PSU, but im
waiting to install the rads and hardware because i was going to put a
pump there, i should have enough room even with the pump there but
ill wait alittle.

yea hes making a new top, hope it fixes it

this is the image he sent me look the same IMO and judging from the
bottom plate im not sure how hes going to do this.. but either way

edit:

let me know what he tells you.

[psmawson]

Well, I havent received an email back today so will be tomorrow now, I'm just hoping its possible as i need a block that will work with 3 Way Sli

yea its weird that it didn't work to begin with. i had a pretty lengthy email explaining how surprised i was

[biftek.]

Looks like he moved the left barb down and a tiny bit over to the right. Should fix the problem.

the only thing that fix the problem is moving it down but even then it changes the flow b/c the copper plate is made to fit the stock top..

[biftek.]

Well with hose EK blocks being so free flowing from the start, I don't think it'll matter much
Plus he probably only moved it a few mm's nothing that will be noticeable temp wise.

[chiguy]

There was someone here who did a build using a two way mirror as a window.

[fungry]

Your build so far looks amazing. Btw, I was wondering, what fans are you using? I can see that they are NMB-MAT but can't make out the model name.

And how would you rate them? Airflow? dB?

Thanks! Keep up the good work

[psmawson]

Just got a reply from Eddy, the new Striker II Fomula SB is being sort as we speak, and should be ready for the end of next week.

So that makes it about a week togo :d Start counting down

[septim]

this project is coming along nicely. plexi with the evil logo in front would definitely be nice...

very nice work too from Eddy, now thats customer satisfaction guaranteed, i hope he keeps this up...
