well lol i've never done case modding before so i am kinda new to the idea. I wanted to mod my new cm690 but i said to myself let me start with my old case to get some practice. well first of course i bought the Dremel.



and i was scared of the sparks like hell since I've never done metal vrs metal so i used my creativity and made a mask which protected me from the sparks.


Like i said before i decided to start small and with my old case. It needed better airflow so i decided to open a whole in the door and install a leftover fan and here it is.




Well guys any advices u can give me ill take i did my best for a start i think is alright next time i'm pushing myself further since i'm not scared of sparks anymore.

madd lulz at the mask

the sparks wont really hurt your skin, but get goggles to protect your eyes if anything... i worked in a mechanical shop in class, sparks flew, never hurt the skin, but don't let the metal pieces into your eyes, that would be most unfortunate

as for the mod, its not bad, pictures are a little blurry, but good job man

o and you beat me to 'my first mod'... i have yet to do one, plan on going crazy this winter though, gonna paint, water cool, new fans, uv lights, gunna be SICK
