Two of the 3 mods I'm currently working on :) Maul is the one on the left in the Corsair 600C and the shell on the right is the Cooler Master MasterCase Maker 5t, this is my Tempest Mass Effect mod. I already did some cuts in the 600C. Mainly the front panel section as well as the top. A bit more filing and tidying up of the cuts need to be done but it's coming along well so far :) Stay tuned for more :) Cheers, Alex

Looks good, but its always a bit tricky to mount all your components, when your window is on the other side and you need to flip everything.

Thanks a lot! It was simple dry brushing with acrylic paint. At the end of the build log once all the content is out and the build finished, I will have a summary video explaining it all :)

Hi guys, Here's most of the piping done! One issue I had with this is that two of the pass through fittings were way too close to each other and I only had Bitspower C47 style fittings that were a bit too large. So I ended up hand filing them down. This was the result: Just shaved off a few mm and they fit perfectly with a bit of tubing between them. They're the ones at the very bottom. Mounted the RGB LED controller for the Corsair fans in the front as well. This will be accessible from the side even with the front panel on. And here's a look at the cable management. And now the inside. The red chrome tubes, with the fittings in the middle is a reference to the dual lightsaber. Thanks for checking it out and stay tuned for more! Cheers, Alex
