Razzle_Dazzle Posted April 14, 2014 Author Share Posted April 14, 2014 Go, go, go ... Great working :-) thank you very much New parts are arriving tomorrow I will be able to continue and hopefully finish it all off soon. I need to get some primer and I want to invest in some silver carbon fiber vinyl sheet to do the entire external case. Not sure if I want to go that route just yet Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Razzle_Dazzle Posted April 15, 2014 Author Share Posted April 15, 2014 April .8 and April .14 So a quick update I went ahead and did more fill in as well as sanding on the I/O panel From the last point on the front end panel I went ahead and filled and filed the port for the USB it did take me some time and spots of body fill to get it right but the end speak for themselves. At this point I had to set the hackintosh aside and help a new client out select hardware for a Mid-high level gamer PC made but not solely for skyrim mmo. So I am setting the project on hold this coming week as I build a clients PC. So I am back, While I wait for my clients hardware to arrive by tomorrow I decide to finish off on some minor things. a quick show of the finish sleeving and laced PCI-e x6 and x8. I will be swapping out the red quick disconnect for white ones. I do like to recycle my parts and having to let go the original connection from the G5 case was a no to me so I sleeved and lace them as well together. I still have a few more things to sleeve but sadly I ran out of sleeving, I will have to order two set of black sleeving and a set of grey sleeving as well as a set of neon green sleeving for my clients computer. this is all I managed to do so far, yes it is not much but the lack of funds as well as the upcoming work for a client has put a halt on my work. Till next time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Razzle_Dazzle Posted April 22, 2014 Author Share Posted April 22, 2014 April .18 and April .22 So I got my order of two 25feet black sleeving, I order the adapter for 50pin to SATA which should arrive soon. I went ahead and sleeved my power cable, my x4 and x4 to x8 adapter for the northern bridge power cable. I didn't heat shrink the ends I decide to hold off till I figure out how to set the holes on the PSU cover for both cable. the Red is still a little show throw :/ oh well i am short on time That is it for today, clients are swinging around. Lot of other things to do.. Today I got the new adapter I am so happy the 50pin to SATA with floppy 4 pin to molex adapter It did come with a SATA cable but I will not be needing to use it Just for the fun of it, I decide to sleeve the adapter power cable Been back and forth helping clients out and doing other things. I will be coming back to finish off my hackintosh built. May I willl be on vacation till june or july. So will be seeing you less and less while I am roaming around on vacation.

Razzle_Dazzle Posted April 30, 2014 Author Share Posted April 30, 2014 April .25, April .26 and April. 29 So I am back and this time I have taken the big step to doing the back panel I/O. Before I work on the back I needed to put the whole case together I ran out of battery for my camera and didn't want to bother using my nokia window 8 phone for any snap shoots but in either case I went ahead and mocked out the motherboard tray as well as the PSU cover. Back with battery so last time I left off I had a mock place where I was to cut By this time I mocked out where the back panel port will sit and plotted out my plan to cut. I didn't bother in take picture of cutting the back out so i decide to move a long I got the back end back in place for the fan slot. I went and moved it further closer to the left side. This left me with some big holes to fill in. Looks like more JB weld I ran out of JB weld and had to run out to the store. Got myself a new set of tube to work with I went ahead and started to fill some holes in with more JB weld, Yes the case was upside down when I took the shoot lol This is all I was able to do, right now I am working on the I/O panel I will be filling some spot with JB weld and the rest with body fill. Lets hope I finish before the 5th. I leave on my vacation on the 6th wish me luck 3 day bus ride heading mid north west. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fabius Bile Posted May 1, 2014 Share Posted May 1, 2014 Ah, you have moved the fan holes to left, for this reason you have cut that area.Good job and happy vacation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Razzle_Dazzle Posted May 2, 2014 Author Share Posted May 2, 2014 Ah, you have moved the fan holes to left, for this reason you have cut that area. Good job and happy vacation. Correct, I needed to make space for the I/O panel so i decide to move it left more. Looking at it I think I didn't space the fan correctly. the lower fan will hit the PSU cover so I might end up patching the lower fan hole and leaving the upper fan hole as well I will leave some spot on the back end covered. My vacation will start soon which is nice but I picked a poor time to start my vacation I will not be able to finish the project so I leave it for now. I will every now and then come back to check up on the sight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fabius Bile Posted May 2, 2014 Share Posted May 2, 2014 Yes, probably the fan holes it's too near at the I/O's panel hole, in the Laser Hive back plate, the holes are left-most.How long will your vacation? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Razzle_Dazzle Posted May 3, 2014 Author Share Posted May 3, 2014 Yes, probably the fan holes it's too near at the I/O's panel hole, in the Laser Hive back plate, the holes are left-most. How long will your vacation? Yeah i made sure the panel cleared before putting the back fan holes in. They are a little more down then I would have liked so I will adjust when I come back. The vacation will be for a couple of months. My girlfriend and her roommate want to take me to places and to a Renaissance fair Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
