How do you like that tiny table saw? I saw one at the shop the other day and thought about getting it. I like the wood trim around the window!

I don't want to paint the brass, I need to repaint the whole case. I've been filling small imperfections and sanding on it so the finish is all special looking. Its getting an interesting look to it lately. Update: Made a fan grille today. I need to order a filter for the fan, until I do that...

A few days ago I was in France and found some totally destroyed brass handles at an estate sale. After some hours of cleaning, sanding and polishing, they look pretty nice. I decided that they would work well on the case as there is no easy way to carry it at the moment. They are countersunk...

Hey guys, its been a seriously long time since an update on this project. However, I am on version 2 of the case, it is nearly finished but I am still working on it when I find the time. Since the last update I have completely rebuilt the case as the original idea to have an external power...

Very nice! Well done! What did you use to cut the aluminium? You have access to a mill or was it all done by hand?

Update 7: Finally got back from the holidays and organized enough to work a little bit. Today I built an enclosure for the PCB which controls the lighting and the light gauge in the front. I installed the power button. Cut the aluminium for the motherboard to mount to (not pictured). Finally did...

The passive cooling + SSD is fantastic, I imagine it would feel very strange to turn on a computer and hear absolutely nothing.

I like the rounded diagonals.

Love the reservoirs! Put up a video of the top opening!

Pretty cool! Subbed!

Crappy cell phone pic of the hardware :) I forgot to get put the SDD on the order so I need to get that before I head back to Germany. Regarding the front panel, I have several ideas I've been playing with. I'll post up the design of the new one when I settle on it. :) Cheers

Link to lights installed in case. :D

Good luck!

Pretty cool design! It kept getting better and better! Looking forward to the finished case!

Sorry no update for a while! Update 5: I finished the circuit for light detection and LED dimming. Here is the schematic: The gauge functions as it did before. I've added a comparator which compares a static value (adjustable for average light/dark condition in the room) to the current...
