Phase 11 - QuakeCon Photos - Pics
Here are a few picture of the set up I had at QuakeCon. Originally like I said, I didn’t have any LEDs at all, but on Day 2 of QuakeCon I brought a strand with me and quickly attached them just using tape on the inside to give...
That is the end goal. I currently live in an apartment and me and my wife have been searching for houses. Once we get a house, I will hang it on the wall and the yellow LED's I'll put on the back will hopefully make it look like the Bat Symbol.

So here are pictures of the computer all set up and it officially works. Everything is running smoothly, no errors or issues.
I have not yet added the LED lights which I won’t have time to complete before QuakeCon. I’ll be...

Time for the moment of truth right!? Time to install my current computer components into the new case and verify what I’ll need to finalize the case.
Knowing that this was going to...
Yes I plan to put yellow LED's on the inside so that hopefully the lights glow out of the fans, and also I plan to put them on the back panel to give it a glowing effect from the wall since it will eventually be wall mounted. Thought I wont have the LED part completed by QuakeCon.

At this point I realized I didn't cut the hole out for the power button, so I used a drill with a 3/4" bit to easily cut it out. Actually, I drilled a smaller hole first so that the larger drill bit would drill in more...

Sanding. Sooo much sanding. I'd say I spent about 30 hours of sanding on this, the way I did it at least...
I started sanding with an electric sander using a 5" round, 120 grit sand paper on each of the flat surfaces along the edges. I...

Phase 4 - Welding - Pics
Now that we had all the pieces together and situated, we needed to weld. For concern of warping, we welded little bits at a time until the shape gained enough structure that warping was no longer a concern. The original plan at this stage was to...

Initially, using foam that I found at Wal-Mart that was designed for flooring underneath weight training equipment, I used an Exacto Knife to cut out the main shape of the design. Using a ruler to determine the...

I had the idea for this for multiple years without any idea how to actually implement it. Then I met someone who had all the tools I could possibly need and with his allowing me to use them, I got started.
