Cooler Master 840 ATCS Case Mod ..::D-9::..

[Bill Owen]

Hey gang, I've started the build for Cooler Master's media suite at 2010 CES. The D-9 concept was mine after seeing the movie.

I should know by first week of November what hardware CM will be sending me.

Adding window to Cooler master 840 ATCS


Using tape roll to make curved corner


Make first initial cut with your Dremel and cutting wheel, to allow use of Jigsaw and cut the window more efficiently



You have created slot, this allows using a Jigsaw w/ 18 TPI cutting blade





Using a Jigsaw is much quicker than using a Dremel to cut your window


Use a rounded side file to debur the jagged edges of the new window





Notice the window location doesn't reveal the drive bays, this was intentional.
