    I don't think you could give any higher compliments as you have confirmed everything I wanted to achieve: confusion.

    I wanted people to look at it and not understand what they were looking at. So much <3 to you, Anachlores. =)

    I will get some more pictures in this thread soon, but as for the top heavy looks, that was a secondary goal of mine. The system looks extremely off balance, but a couple prototypes were made to ensure the balance was rock-solid. Uriel will not tip over no matter how much pressure is exerted on either end because of the system's unique center of gravity residing one inch to the L frame (which you can see in the first and last pictures). However, it certainly appears like it will topple over =O

    I suppose from my awkward pictures the GPU box looks overly large for its task, but it is not much wider than the cards it houses. In a couple days when I get my head together I will post some pics of the assembly and the magic will all be gone. =P


    Thank you all for your wonderful comments. I am humbled.
