Anodizing is pretty toxic as well as being kinda complicated and costly to setup. My friend has an anodizing service (he owns a machine shop and the like) but you're profile says you live in costa rica so thats a bit hard to do (I live in the midwest). If you want I can refer you to him (as...

Can you give us a link to the Cosair powersupply your talking about?

Alright after resanding (because there were a lot of scratches that I didn't catch the first time >< ) and re bondoing and re sanding again, and priming, sanding down to 1000 grit, and finally applying the coats and clear coat (one more before I go to bed), we get to this: and this...

Not exactly sure what that is... O.o Edit: just googled it, yeah it kinda does, though it has an extra arm. Update: After wet sanding the base paint/primer: And now after 1st coat of color laquer: And after 2nd with a flash light to help on the color, still can't see it well. Getting...

There's no way for the mist to settle on the walls or guitar or anywhere near the spray surface, as the way i have the room setup, there is a constant STRONG breeze when the door is open, i tested it with a bit of smoke (shhh). The air is evacuated within 5 seconds from window to door. Oh and...

Alright began spraying the base coat: Here's the plate masked off Here's me :D in my blurry glory I got one of those trigger sprayers it actually helps quite a bit with spray control. And first light coat: I'm going to wet sand at 1000 grit once I get a few more coats on. Though the...

leave it as is, it will stick up a bit form the top but I don't really care, i like the design. And the bondo came out really smooth (at 800 grit will probably stop at 800 as its getting super smooth) Sprtn: I would LOVE to cut it and backlight it, but my dremel skills are t3h suck. So no...

Uh, first thought: Why does it have a hat??? I like the hydraulics on the lid, but for me to buy that and actually display it, I would have to do SERIOUS modding to it.

Alright, well I've decided to paint my dell vostro laptop (1400) and have voided every warentee in the book already :D Anyhow. I decided to paint it because the dull black was very boring, I picked up some mirage color changing paint from the auto parts store, its hard to tell but the color...

(sorry i havent replied in like 4 months)If you think about it though, touch pads can only deal with one input at a time (if you accidently have your palm or thumb on the touch pad at the same time you get problems.)

Well all I need is the dumb board (all I really want is a dumbboard) all the board needs to do is detect if the drive is being accessed and light up a led.

Thanks for the responses. What I ment was I would grab 4 external enclosures and rip the control boards out of em and use one per harddrive. I would use SATA - SATA enclosures so I don't suffer too large of a bandwidth hit as I would with usb or firewire. Another thing is I assume I would...

Ok, currently I have 4 internal sata drives. And on all PCs there is one light that just says if one of the drives is in use. I would like to mod it so I can get 4 lights indicators on the front of my case one for each hd, so i can see which one exactly is in use. Is this possible through...

I could be wrong, but doesn't the spindle need to be supported somehow? (the reason why the original cover had the raised circle)

I have a V2000 B (not plus but same dimensions. The damn thing is cavernous, you could shove a midget in there and still have room.
