I'm back to work on the illuminated plane
 
       
I'll use LED strips
 
 
 
And a red plexy cover
 
      
 
  
 
    
 
Some placement Test
         
 
I want more space up
 
       
 
and here is the result
 
  
 
 
Mounting of Alphacool NexXxus Monsta 560 in new position 
 
                                 
 
Final test, I have the space I want
 
       

I do some placement Tests 
 
    
 
Solution 1
 
 
 
Solution 2
 
 
 
none of these two solutions satisfy me  
 

 
I decide: dismount, tallow and change everything
 
     
 
reinforcement
 
     
 
A look with the MoBo
 
    
 
OK Approved 
 
I do a new rear panel
 
     
 
Some test of what I want to do
 
  
 
I installed the MoBo
 
     
 
 
At this point a good test to see if the result is satisfactory or whether to operate other changes
 
            
 
At the same time start a mini-project:
 
PROJECT DANGEROUS POWER TANKs
 

 
 

Very nice....love the kingpin's. I have one very fast!

Some great work there.

Some great work there.

Thanks Bro!
Definitely BIG.
I wanted to make the biggest case on which I had never worked! And put in a lot of little things that I had always wanted....
Among this all the wonderufl HW of my wishes, EVGA included. Wishes of more than a year ago, so it can be that before the end of the project I changes some HW with the new generation

Hi Guys,
 
Today no-Modding day (sometimes I work), however I want to update you with a rendering of Project Dangeruos Power Tanks made by my friend C3r34L3 (Extreme Modding Factory ) I thank him as always, he supports all my monkey ideas (guys I need Inventor, Autocad is old )
 

 
 
Tank BitspowerWater Tank Z-Multi 400 (Acrylic Version) height 420mm and diameter 60mm.

We go with the second part, as I said the previous Modding session revealed several problems and necessary changes, furthermore to remove the panel have also broken it, I'll just make it best.
 
 
 
here the necessary changes in order to position the future panel more easily
 
        
 
Retrying the panel I gained about 5 mm per side
 
 
 
and around the MoBo support no longer needed the notches
 
 
 
To lock the side panels better I added a new aluminum edge
 
     
 
After placing plexy panels in position everything is much more solid
 
   
 
The panels protrude upward of about 15 mm because above there is another part, and I'd like to have full plexy coverage 
 
    

Latest products arrived.

Plugs panel with switch, now I just have to find the right place to put them.
 
 
 
an interesting thing that I wanted to experience: a speed controller for DC motors (Pmax 1000W-15A), why do I needit?
to adjust LED strips, I know that there are Drimmer ready, but in this Mod I want the wheels to turn (potentiometer) and the problem is that I have many meters of powerful LED strips.
 
  
 
How do you imagine I could not resist and I did a test immediately
 

 
 

And finally a bit 'of things from Aquatuning
 

 
20 Red LEDs
 
 
 
2 Station for 20 LEDs 
 

 
and 50 fasteners
 

 
clearly I tried also these LEDs
 
  
 
But go with Modding, as anticipated last time I wanted to put the ducts also in the fans down, even though I knew that it presented difficulties .....
 
I take measures and do the ducts
 

 
The problem is that in the structure that I built the opening for this fan is a bit tight so I have to make some changes
 
    
 
and here is the effect
 
  
 
I widened the openings in front and behind, I still have to retouch the locking support, so you see it with the plexy is bent of few mm.

Hi guys,
 
the carbon fiber wrap red arrived, it doesn't have the same quality as that 3M, however, it seems usable for small details
 
  
 
Remember when I modified the original windows of the 900D
 
   
 
Well I decided not to use them and make custom plexy transparent windows, thanks to my friends  C3r34L3 and sangyzan for the suggestion.
 
First I made a new rear edge, which allow me to attach the rear panel, to have a interspace where to run the cables that go to the Mobo and the SSD and finally that will enable me to put a strip of LED to illuminate the panel.
 
      
 
Considering the new window and considering the aspect that will have the case without windows, I didn't like  the edges because of irregular and with visible rivets
 
    
 
I therefore decided to modify them so they are smooth and homogeneous so they can be painted or wrap, clearly all aluminum
 
         
 
Here is the final effect
 
  
 
What do you think about to wrap these parts in carbon fiber black?
  

I do some position test for the loop, something I wanted to use from the beginning are the Silver Coil Mayhems spirals
 
   
 
here is some tubes
 
   
 
This solution don't convince me much, especially as aesthetics.
So I dusted off an old solution that I had set aside because the spaces are too precise, put the connecting pipes under the floor and behind the side panels, another solution is to put out the Tanks
 
  
 
I then redone the pumps support as anticipated to have more space above and in front
 
 
 
The support isn't touching the floor, it's raised by 5 mm, the last finishing touch with chrome edging, which I will use also other parts like finish
 
   

I do the duct fans Wrapping Test to decide which color-material have the best effect
 
   
 
Assembled it all
 
  
 
Here are four options:
 
1) Mirrored chrome effect, this film is very difficult to put on a curved surface, it is 3M but not for car wrapping, is specific for glass or flat surfaces
 
  
 
2) Brushed Metal, this film is beautiful and I have seen it used in some projects on SSD and other parts, in this application, however, it seems me that doesn't sit well with the red and black plexy
 
  
 
3) Red Carbon Fiber, this would be my first choice but 3M doesn't offer this color, so I bought the film on Amazon and with fans off  you can see a big difference ....
 
  
 
4) Black Carbon Fiber, the quality can be seen, 3M original film, a bit thick to put on, but it's fantastic, it isn't exactly the effect that I had thought but very nice I'm reevaluating it
 
  
 
I would like these parts were beautiful both with fans off that on, certainly you must consider that for a long time the PC is turned on.
 
Then turn on the turbojet !
 
 
 
Here are four options turn on:
 
1) Mirrored chrome, much better than turn off, but not the effect that I had thought, moreover this film, because of its characteristics, has imperfections
 
   
 
2) Brushed Metal, this film hasn't a good effect even with the fans on
 
   
 
3) Red Carbon Fiber, as expected this color maximizes the effect of the fans LED, but you continue to note the low quality of the material
 
   
 
4) Black Carbon Fiber, the quality is undeniable, there is also the 3D effect, but there isn't a real incandescent effect of duct as above
 
   
 
I am torn between the two colors of Carbon Fiber
 
 
PS.
I ordered a new  Red Carbon Fiber film of Hexis specific for Car Wrapping

That looks great!

Thanks rjohnson11,
now is the third version of the project  and I'll advance you that I have some nice up for you 

Hi guys,
 
arrived a Rock 'n Roll a package from the UK, and what's more Rock' n Roll of Fender guitars?
 
  
 
and I will use the chrome knobs on my Mod!

Don't you think that I would use those included?
 
   
 
 
I wanted do some finish and I wrapped mirror the pumps support plan to get a chrome effect
 
   
 
I painted with chrome paint the black supports that I had sawn 
 
 
 
At the end finishes will be all chrome as fittings.
 
 
 
Here is the piece assembled

WWOOOWWW!!!! This is some project man. Looks great so far. I gotta say I love experimental modding.... and you put it up in picts so a big thumbs up to you!!!   When I saw a couple of the picts, back on the 3 or 4 page, with it running it reminded me of a stereo system if you covered the fans in the middle of the case and just left the array of 4 fans on the outside left and right of the case, lol. Anyway, keepup the good work and don't pay attention to my hallucinations, lmao. \m/

Thanks Bro !
Stay tuned! I have to show you the the HW upgrade (sponsored by my wallet and CORSAIR [Thanks to CORSAIR] ) 
EVGA X79 Dark --> EVGA X99 Classified
4 EVGA 780ti KINGPIN --> 4 EVGA Titan X SC 
i7-4960x --> i7-5960x
64Gs DDR3 Corsair Platinum 2133 --> 64 GBs DDR4 Corsair Platinum 3000 

Meanwhile also arrived the new Red Carbon Fiber film of HEXIS for the fans ducts.  I ordered it in Nederland, the previous film hadn't satisfied me for the low quality, this costs about ten times more but the difference can be seen. It's of the same quality of 3M if not better, with real 3D effect to the touch
