This will be sand it this technique just reduce the time to do so... those drops can be easily remove using the rotary tool... tomorrow I will start the sanding process... ; )

jajajaajaja Hunter RulZ!!!

Thank you guys... I will try to make it the more metallic I can... Today I decided to play with my favorite material... bondo or body filler... but here is the twist I developed a technique called "Magic Elixir" a few years ago... that consist on making the spreading of the body filler on the part much easier than the traditional way... so I will share it with you just in case somebody need it for future or present use. First you need some disposable plastic jars or cup (they must strong or the mixture will melt it) here is the bondo or body filler this is what will make our body filler go to creamy or liquid estate (Fiberglass resin) I try several thing when I was testing this technique and this was that give me better result than any other chemical. now we pour the Bondo, the resin, the 2 hardeners into the plastic cup and mix it until we get a nice even color depending on the body filler you are using... here is Hunter supervising what I am doing... when your done mixing you mixture should be looking something like this... this is the part I will apply the Magic Elixir... it should look like this when you finish... nice and even... it will save you a lot of spreading and sanding time... Hope you like it... feel free to use it and ask me any question about this technique... Now let get back to work! :P

I went to my local hardware store and pick 2 tones of metallic paint just to found out that they look almost identical when you apply them... so I decided to use them anyway... so here are some pics... More to come, mod on!

The structure is the 2 X that hold the whole thing in place... I try to keep it simple and elegant at the same time... since I don't have a plan this go with whatever am thinking at the moment... but it's pretty much done... just need to apply body filler to the wood and some primer... wire the chassis and can called done!!! Thanks bro, cheers!!!

Thank you guys... I try to recycle as much as I can for this project... so far I have spent $0 on it... just scrap metal, wood and plastic that I have on the shop... I always like to try different shapes and colors... since there is not plan for this I don't know the outcome as well jajajaja... so today I start sanding and painting a few parts... I found some spray paint left overs (dark gray, winter gray and sage green) I will buy some chrome and metallic paint next week but so far this is what I have... More to come!

Here is a collection of exclusive pictures I took since I start building this project... enjoy it!

Thank you, I really impressed myself jejeje... haven't spend a single $$$ on this one... and I really like the futuristic look that it has... am glad you like it!

Almost there... 85% done... on time!!! : ) Meanwhile in Hunterville! That's it for now... more to come!

Not sure about the fans yet, but let see where this take us... meanwhile this is what I did today... I found some left overs from my HAF X (side panels) then I did some cuts... so let see what happen... :cheazz: Continue...

Looking good brother TS! am watching you... so be careful jaja :P

Nice looking project... about your mobo tray config... I manage to do the same thing in an ongoing project... here is the link Un1ty that will give you some ideas... my case was tiny compare to this one... but the main key is to relocate the PSU... cheers!

I really like where this one is going... my type of mod... I like what you did to the chassis! Mi piace molto, dove questo sta andando ... il mio tipo di mod ... Mi piace quello che hai fatto al telaio! Mod on!

Very good, I like what you did in the side panel! Molto buono, mi piace quello che hai fatto nel pannello laterale!

Better and better everytime I see it, keep it up! Sempre meglio ogni volta che lo vedo, continuate così!

wow, excellent work... pure craftsmanship... absolutely beautiful!!!

I used an angular bar to make the mid session of the frame... and then some support to attach them to the side of the mid frame... take a look! That's it for now... More later on!

Today was modding day so I have a bunch of pictures... I focus on the mobo tray cover... so I found a grill from a G5 that I can use... so let the fun begin! More underway!

Small Update... Stay tuned for more!

Thanks, yes it is... as you can see in this pic... this setting doesn't affect the balance... I tend to design with gravity in mind... the 2 big X don't let the chassis lean to the front or back

Sorry about that, I was having a server issue... finally I was able to upload more pictures so here they are I made a support for the HDD and I cut the Mobo tray to be able to add the cooler from behind... here are the pics! Stay tuned for more! : )

Thank you guys!!! No, that HDD is not working just the one on the back, it was working but it was a 10GB old HDD... sometime you need to make sacrifice... :P

Looking good bro, keep the hard work!

...looking good bro... nice technique... me like it!!! : ) where did you get the paint... local or internet... I will go with the metallic look too so I need so crazy paint... are you going to hand paint or airbrush?

Well guys, I just did this... hope you like it... more about this tomorrow... right now is time to take a break... 9:59pm so till tomorrow!!! Stay tuned for more and Mod On!
