Subject: Re: Tempest (modded CM MasterCase Maker 5t) by SimpleModz by alexciobanu on 2017/4/26 13:57:36 Hey guys, Sorry for the lack of updates on this build but unfortunately that's what happens when you're working on 3 case mods at the same time and they all have to be finished at the same time. Plus I've got my full time job on top of that. Been super busy lately. What I'm gonna do however is focus on getting this build log ready and finishing this build as it has to be done and submitted for the Cooler Master Case Mod World Series by the 3rd of May. So here is the progress that I've made so far. The PSU has been mounted in it's new location, I have a new motherboard tray that is mounted over the existing one to maintain the case rigidity, the back panel has been completely cut out and a new panel installed that has a 240 radiator mount and the I/O is in the top. I also have the extra 'top' exterior panel mounted on the back. There is also a cut out in the mid-tray section with a piece of acrylic mounted over it. This is for the pass-through fittings later. You will also see an acrylic panel in the bottom and a piece on the back. I hope that all makes sense but I'll have a video in the end explaining it all and showing more of the actual progress for those interested. I have to give a huge shout out to Corey from Imfaceroll Gaming for the help in cutting the aluminium panels on his CNC machine. Otherwise I don't know how I would have had time to get this done for the submission date. Also thanks to Justin from Metalicacid for the tips on how to brush my aluminium panels. I think minus some of the deeper scratches they all came out really good. Most of that will be covered anyways. So here are the photos guys!      I forgot to mention the cut out in the front panel as well.         Hope you guys enjoy the progress so far and stay tuned, there will be a lot more photos to come! Cheers, Alex |
