Building Ikigai, My Award-Winning Wooden PC Mod

Here’s how I built a unique mod, combining CNC with hand woodworking.
I have assembled and disassembled the case parts so many times by now that the final assembly should go smoothly, probably. I can put on the mesh and install the watercooling fittings tightly.

With the fittings in place, I can install the tubing, button up all of the wiring, and get the loop ready to be filled.

With everything working, it’s time to get ready for final photos. I transformed my shop into a photo booth, even drilling a hole through my work bench to avoid photoshopping the cord out 50 times. I think the results speak for themselves.
