My "murder" project.

[charles_h]

Thanks for the comments Guys.

Charles I'm really looking forward to your next murderbox! I wonder how you're going to fit in the DVD drive as the front of the case is made out of one piece! Can't wait!

There will be no internal optical drive Sir. External USB FTW!

I met with the Metal Master who will do the manual bending of the center insert after it's been cut on a water jet. His shop is straight out of a movie. I didn't see a machine in there that looked less than 50 years old! As soon as I set foot inside, I knew it was a place where magic happens. Its in a very old brick building and there's barely any lighting inside. The place is rich with character - a sharp contrast to the brightly lit, almost sterile, warehouse size places I deal with for the majority of fabrication. The shop is 3 narrow levels and the lowest had a ceiling that was less than 6 feet high. There was no one down there but the whole time I was there, I expected to see an old bearded Dwarf suddenly appear down there and start hammering on a piece of metal. The place has a great vibe and I'm really looking forward to getting this project underway. I'll definitely take some shots in there for the worklog.

Do you have any problems with the Feser One UV coolant? Like settling on the inside of the hoses or whatever? Or maybe even killing the pump?

And how many UV-lights are in there? I saw one UV-cathode on the top? Is that the only light??

Thanks a lot again, and your work is so super-clean, I really love it!!

Cheers GrossmeisterB.

I've had no problems with the Feser One UV coolant at all. I recently drained a loop that was running for about 9 months and there was no buildup of any kind, anywhere. That system had the UV green. The fanta murderbox only has the one cold cathode you saw. Truth is, the UV Orange is not very UV unfortunately and more lighting doesn't help at all. It's just not very UV reactive.

two chicks at the same time.

One for each... uhhh...

Charles...you deserve every compliment you get when it comes to your designs and build quality. If I had the money to buy just the case from you(id rather have a full build but thats besides the point) I would do it in a heartbeat, as I'm sure a lot of other people on the various forums would. If a new job comes my way in the near future you can expect to hear from me

Cheers Mate, I'm deeply honored.

And Im moved by your work. It is by far the MOST super-clean work Ive ever seen. Its tasteful and beautiful. Heck just reread the thread theres nothing more to be said of the work you do

And this is coming from someone who likes a clean box with no wires showing at all. When I make a build I like people to scratch their heads saying, "Is that a functional rig? Where are all of the wires!??!?!?!?".

But I have to say flaunting the wires the way that you do with the loop-de-do on the sata cables, the highlighting of 1 sata only with irange and having them sleeved is brilliant. The individual sleeving of the PCIe wires originally I didnt know what I thought about it, but after starting at those pics like a :banana::banana::banana::banana:o movie I really like it

Professional. Artistic. Awe-inspiring. Jaw-dropping.

I think its all been said but I still cant stop posting about it

Thank you Dawgdoc. It's such a great feeling to have people dig that which I love doing. Running a small business is wrought with challenge but when I come in here and read such positive, supportive feedback, it makes me smile and not think about the 87 things I have to do tomorrow - at least not for a few minutes. Cheers Mate.

Charles, your workmanship is truly impressive -- not to say incredible.

The simplicity of your work along with the attention to the finest details makes for an incredibly stylish design.

My next build, inside a Lian Li V600, will certainly be inspired by what you have shown in this thread.

Cheers

Thank you Gab. to XS.

Charles, after seeing those renderings, I may want you to do it for my build

Assuming the Customer it was designed for doesn't mind sharing.

Charles can i have a 1024x768 wallpaper for my old CRT monitor on the file server.
Thank you

Ubetcha.
