Yeah, it's terribly hot. If I didn't plan on getting a DS3 or similar in the early spring I would get a JingTing or Extreme Spirit II for it.

Anyone who quote's my favorite song is cool in my book

Sidebar/Tangent: to Tool_462

One late night I set my alarm clock to get up early in the morning. My intent was wake up to something soft, elevator music, if you will, at a low volume. I had been listening to my Opiate CD at a rather high volume that same fateful night. Due to my own oversight, at 5:30am the next morning the song "Sweat" came on - loud... very loud... and woke me from a deep, deep sleep. I was startled so bad it hurt. 8O I shook all day long after that. I couldn't tell you this story if I had forgotten it, and know that it happened 9 long years ago.

Great new pics Tool. Lighting looks great.

Awesome! Thanks ryan!

bunkgoats: I woke up to Die Eier Von Satan once, kinda creepy

Went well. I had position almost the whole fight except he (Mike Hansen) ?accidentally? kicked me in the back of the head while I was on the ground (-1 point for the round.) Right near the end of the 2nd round I caught him with a right hook that stunned him and he went down for a takedown attempt and I caught him with a whip kick above the right eye and he got cut pretty bad. Referee stopped it and it went to an early decision and ended up 20-17. My leg is pretty bruised but I'd like to see his eye right now. Mind you I had just taken a cold pack off and my girlfriend thinks it's funny so my leg is even bigger now, almost twice normal size. Heading to the doctor tonight to see if anything is broken.

after the hit on the fisrt guy i know my hand hurt more than his nose
the next day.

hope your leg is ok (should be).
you are young and should recover fast.

and good luck on any contest you enter your case in.
if so let me know which web site and i will join and vote for you

oh something else i just remebered about that fight i got into.

when i was rolling with the second guy on the ground i was trying to poke his eye out and he bit me 8O. that hurt.

i also had a chance to strike his throat and maybe/possibly kill him.

im glad i didnt.

dont adjust for your g/f,s birthday just adjust his face

I would like it to go that way. She probably won't agree, but she does like it when I come out alive.

Great Job!! Looks really good.

I would have added a little more wooden goodness to the side (still with windows though).

Still very nice.. The wooden side goodness would hide the drive bays maybe? And, act as a handle for the side?

Still very awesome.. How quiet is it?

Very nice indeed!!

Kudos on the wood working.

Thanks 8)

Send me all your parts and I will use them to form the ideas for a case. I promise to send them back in the next 5 years, and promise to leave the forum for one week.

BASTAGE to you and tool.

i cant read what tool said or see your avatar too good


oh yeah im blind

Yea, watch out man. I'm gonna come and slam my forehead into that sore foot. I'll have you begging for mercy even if my face ends up looking like a bag full of pork and beans.

The CPU mag entry idea is a good one. They have a pretty good magazine with some interesting case mods. Your case is looking great!

You won't know if you don't try. It's like the lame line they use on any kiddies competition: "The more you enter, the more chance you stand of winning" - and here I thought it didn't matter that I only enter once every time...

Does CPU magazine still have "The Mad Modder" dude? He was a good read.

Excellent job!

Gives me some ideas as well. I've been thinking of doing some experimenting on some old cases just to get comfortable with this type of thing before trying anything serious. Come on warm weather, no heat in my shop hehe.

Looks great, and I like the idea of having the radiator in a seperate compartment, and 120mm fans all around must be nice(I'm stuck with several noisy 80mm that don't cool well but I'm on the lookout for a new case ) . I would have gone with acrylic to mount the drives on rather than metal, but I have an obsession with acrylic

I was just wondering if this case is in production yet? I want one! 8O

Only me dropping out of school or a price offered that would suddenly free up some time would lead to production of cases similar to mine. College kid with 5 classes and double major, living away from home and with girlfriend on weekends has little time to be meddling in case building $$$ changes everything though.
