Chenming Mod

I was being kind of an asshole... sorry.

I choose freewebs cause they have a fairly good thing going. I will resize the pics a little later on.
 
If you want to - email them to me and I will host them... Anything but Freewebs :p ;)
 
Sorry that it sounded like I was being mean, but I am on cable and the pics take 2-3 min to show up, which isnt good

The pics are just over 1mb each, and when i right click-> downloaded them, they were downloading at about 2.5-3kb/s

I also don't really like having to scroll across the screen to see the whole pic

Welcome to the world of 56k, its hell aint it? :p ;)
 
heh i know what you mean about 56k... and i have an isp with crappy DNS, too. and it only allows like 5 connections at a time (which sucks when my brother uses bittorrent)

cool looking idea for the dragon. doesn't look like you slipped yet with the dremel, either:p

I have Netzero, need I say more? :p :(

Spikky, remember how we were talking about the light from the ccfls? Put something inside the case to reflect/refract the light, like some shiny plexi or a prism.

So far I have only hit my fingers and not the case...


I dun know what to do with the lighting.
 
Ok. It will be a few more days till another update. I have company coming over this weekend and my computer was elected intertainment system for it. Klipsch 5.1 system and the only dvd-rom in the house :eek:.
Since cutting is loud and we have company over that means I will ge very little done. I got some more disks from Lowes, but the cheap bastards only had the $10 cutting set and not the tubes of 36 cutt-offs in the 409's. They had EVERYTHING there except the 49's.
 
Alright. I now have my own computer back. I cut a lot more out of the door but no pics yet. the only thing that really needs to be cut out still is the mouth and nose of the Dragon, along with the claw that is closest to the head.
 
I got the whole Dragon cut out. I am doing a lot of other things around the house also so I still havn't had time to do much in the way of taking pics, resizing, and sending them to Grizzy who has generously offered to load them up for me. Aint he nice? No more long load times!

(Maybe we should put a NOS button on it too. Or paint it yellow and put angel stickers reaching for the front of the case... Cause everyone knows that when you paint your car yellow it increases the performance :Insert humor here: )

Didn't see it mentioned in the thread before... Use a turbo button off of an older computer, instead of a NOS button.
 
I remember when those were on computers... I didn't know jack shit back then and still don't compared to what there is to know... Where they really usefull or did they just make you computer run hotter like it did ours?
 
the 'turbo' moniker on the turbo buttons was actually misleading. what really happened was that pressing the turbo button to turn on the turbo would make the computer run at full speed. turning it off would run it at a slower speed. this was necessary because earlier games/programs ran at the speed of the chip, and there weren't any limits, so on newer computers they were unplayable. the turbo button allowed them to be used on faster computers.

get some pics of the dragon up ASAP please:D
 
I always wondered what the hell the turbo button was used for, I was beginning to think of modding some sort of air system together and wiring it to one of those buttons. :D lol

You guys need to get some pics up ASAP! Much like porn, descriptions don't help. :D
 
DUDE, RESIZE THE PICS !!! AHHHH

CBR and I now have to get together again to decide what we are going to do with the blowhole. It looks like we might have to take the top off to do it right with is going to be a pain in the ass.
 
The red on my hand is from cooking. I was making a hamburger. Burns suck. They didn't last long though and they didn't even puss or anything that burns usually do. Gone in a day.
 
CBR might not have time. Girlfriend > mod. Sorry.
 
GF always wins :D LOL

That dragon cut looks sweet! (Need some more pics BTW ;) )
 
Yeah CBR is pussy whipped...

CBR- "Huh? What's that? Take a long walk off a short peer? Ok!"

lol jk. Yeah I need a lot more pics. Tomorrow I am going on vacation for 3-5 days. Last night I was filing down on the case for hours since it was raing and I couldn't do jack shit with anything else. SO far it is only the side of the case that I have cut out. I need some help from CBR to find out WTF we are going to do with the top. I am also thinking Watercooling now. If after this mod I have 270 bucks for the watercooling it is mine. I am also going to try to help buy our new dog. It is 1k bucks for the male that we want. These dogs are huge. I forgot what breed they were but they are good defensive animals. I'll post a pic of me new doggy when we get 'em. For now though I have to bid you all farewell until I get back. L8as all

It was enjoyable. We were on the road for 8 hours to get to our friends house. Then we stood around for and hour or so shootin the shit. Then we went inside for dinner and got a tour of his place. This guy is a jeweler and he makes some really high dollar stuff. Really nice stuff. He gave me a silver ring that is worth a little bit of money because when he was staying over at our house when the Gem Show was around in Tucson I gave him a calender... Ohh well. It was fun. We went to the beach. It smelled like rotting seaweed. But there were lots of hot chicks there. It was a much needed vacation from home. Even if it was short.
 
I got some new equipment from a freind of mine on the vacation. 75 bucks for something that is a million times better than a dremel and costs 300 regular. Can't beat it. Well I am off to work on the side panel a little more. I am trying to get a little sun too so I can work on my fish-belly whites that are me arms. So far I have only gotten sunburned :cool: But anyways. I might take the top of the case off today as well so that it will be easier cutting the top. I will post an update with pics when I take pics and get Grizzy to host them again. Thx for being patient. :)
 
I'll put the name up when I take a picture of it. It is a jewelers tool so it is really high quality. I really can't think of the name right off of the top of my head but it will come to me. I havn't really done anything else of late except go around the edges of the cut with sime soft grinding disks. right now most of the parts are smooth as a babies butt. I still have to do some parts.

School is starting up here pretty soon so it will be harder for CBR and I to really get much of anything done. So far he hasn't been back over yet because of the rain we have been getting he has had to fix his driveway and then he had to go to a meeting for school. now I am back to working again. So on and so on. It seem likeeverytime I think we might be able to get something done something comes up and all the plans just go right out the window.

I am planing on ordering two of the single 120 fan grills from... Uhh I can't remember where... I have them bookmarked on my computer at home...But anyways. Get two of them and put them in the top for a blowhole. This is probably going to be a maybe because I am thinking about watercooling now. If this happens to become a real idea i might just get HD Coolers and leave the rest the way it is.

So many conflicting ideas :(
 
wow. It's been a while since I've posted anything here. I've got nothing else done on the case since my last couple of posts thouogh. It got set in the corner and I kept putting it off and putting it off and putting it off, and now, over a year later, I've got almost no extra money for my case mod because I've been upgrading my computer. I'll start posting more again when I have more money and start working on it again. I went through a few sites just to give myself a little taste of what I'm going to need and how much money I'm going to need, and if I finish this project the way I want to it's going to cost me anywhere from another $150-$300. Not bad all in all, but like I said, I've got almost no money left. Ohh well. Sorry for the long wait guys.

No problem its well worth the wait. What tool did you get by the way?
I can't find it on the net with it'sspecs or anything like that. I'll describe it as best as I can though.

It's like a corded Dremel that hangs up over head, only instead of a little motor like most of the hanging Dremel, it's got a big almost grapefruit sized motor on it. It has a pedal on it that hangs down for the varying speeds. uhh... It's kind of old and the head on it that you put the bits in is about twice the width of a cigar and about 3/4 the length of it. It's pretty much all metal except for the cords from the motor to the pedal and the motor to the bit head.

Other than that there isn't much to say, I don't have any pictures of it and right now after it being in my father's shop for so long I'd have to dig for it in order to take a pic for you guys.

Once again I hope to have an update here in the not too far distant future.
