This project looks very promising. Will be interesting to see how it develops. I was curious about one thing though. Where do you buy aluminum in this format from?

Wondering about the aluminum too and where did you get the heatsink plate? Been looking for one of those.
 
So if I am not mistaken, this computer case is gonna hold 3 computers for a mass server of some sort? Sounds and looks very interesting. The cooler on 2.8ghz CPU looks massive.

i like it, i too, am an aopen man. i am watching the first section more so, because it is the closest to my system specs...

anyhow, what machine are you using to cut all this thick ass [h] aluminum?
 
Are you sure your HDD will be safe that close to the PS, seeing as how it is no longer shielded, and all?

dark_luna: Here's why your sig link doesn't work.

BTW, great looking cases, so far!!

 
wow...you make me wanna go buy some alluminum and take it in to my machine class and make one myself!
 
Nice! Very nice... I have a very serious question, where do you aquire the custom metal heat sinks? I need 4 passive ones to put on top of some hard drives in my own mod...
 
You make case building look SO easy :) Did you fab the parts yourself or did you have someone do it?
 
Looking good so far.. I'm not sure if this guy wants to answer any questions though.. Hmm..

sorry for not answer all questions! :)

I design and an metall store cut out the size
i want, they kindly let me borrow the machin
to bent the metall with.
I have no experience of this kind of big metall work,
have only build smaler stuff before :)

Thats some [H]ard core thick aluminum plate. Dyaaaammnnn! :eek:

Yeah, I was wondering what is the reason for using such a thick plate of AL in your case?
Nice job though :)
 
That doesn't seem thick... Looks like 2mm Aluminum ...

unless you're talking about the top and the bottom

Coolermaster uses 2mm Aluminum
 
hehe the cause of 10 mm alu for the top and the bottom
if mounting the motherboard holder, gona drill about
6-8 mm for the screw so ther wount be any holes
visual at the top, shure i could have user 8 mm but
whanted do be on the safe side! :)

the weight really dosent matter cause im not doing
to move around the computers, its just make them
more steady :D
 
Looking good. What do you have planned for the power and reset buttons and activity LEDs?
