Ok, so i saw a case online that was a desk, well two of my favorite things are computers and workin with wood so here it is. bear in mind it is going to be a pretty slow build and likely wont get updated till i get a little more progress done. also any suggestions will be appreciated :)




 
 
 
 
 *edit
Thought i would add a cost as i was going along and this is as good a place as any :)
 
2 sheets 1/2"x5'x5' Russian Birch  60$  (this stuff is great to work with btw almost no voids in the plys and actually shapes pretty good with a router)
to be continued......

    All Air or Air and Water or only Water Cooling?
    Looking good so far, remember that BigAdv are ending at the end of the year or Jan 2015.
    I moved my 2P 32 Cores over to Crunching even though it still supports BA.

    Ty very much!! I'm really getting excited about it. hopefully i'll get some more done on it in the next few days and can post some more pictures. Any suggestions on some cheap quite case fans? 120mm as 140 would be just a lil tight where i wanna put them.

    Ty again for the recomendation!! I have seen some really cool stuff with the carbon fiber vinal, anyone sugest a place to get it from and tips on putting it on a large surface. I am debating covering basically the whole desk with it tho i have not used it before and would hate to mess it all up

    Looks like a great start clayton, nice joint's! I am very much interested in this project, I am running a 4P neeked which is working great.
    The fans RJ linked are really nice, but I would say pay attention when ordering. Meaning Corsair offer's them in quiet, performance, and some with nice static pressure for w/c.
    I didn't know they made them in LED, kinda cool.

    As far as the carbon fiber look :

    I would suggest not to "over do it" . But it depends on taste. Good luck on the build and keep us updated.

    not much of an update, but i have got the legs roughly cut, now need to shape the raidius for the front and cut out some access panles on the inside. Thats where i am gonna put the psu's and the hardisks as well as future radiators. couldn't help but taking some pics with the 4p just for some scale.

    small update, couldn't really find a holesaw to fit a 120mm fan so i improvised with a router and a drill bit. i think the holes came out extreamly well.

    The reservoirs in the legs is a nice idea. But that is alot of tubing to run. Let alone the lose in pressure. Maybe throw in a 2nd pump to give back your headpressure. I dont know your budget. Maybe put in fake reservoirs, just have a tube and pump combo for looks for the legs. Idk haha

    Been a very long time since any update. Just got the 4p mounted and got alot of the wiring sorted, but it is up and running in its new home. Ran outta time tonight but hopefully will have it together with the case fans tomarrow. Then time to break down the 2700k and mount it in the other side.
