Allright finnaly after saying that I was going to do this for the past year I finnally ordered the parts and constructed a 6 port 12v High/off/7v Low fan baybus. Heres some pics let me know how you like it:

Shows the inner workings from behind you can see the junction box i plug the fans into

Closeups of the junction box, shows powerswitch and indicator LED (to turn off when pluggin stuff in so theres no shorts) and also the 2.5mm audio jacks for fans

Back pic of front switch panel shows the "hard part" :p

Note: I had to mount the switches to an aluminum plate as the plexi baycover was to thick to mount to, then the aluminum to the outter part of the plexi cover I cut out

Let me know what you guys think..........

I like it. Can we have moar pics please?! :p

I'd like to see it with the whole computer, but that's just me. Congrats on doing something the right way and not just buying it already made!
 
hey thanks apHytHiaTe, I hate the peeps who just go and buy the stuff its not what modding should be haha well its not really modding anyway the rest of the case is just a clear acrylic case, if you really want me 2 ill get some pics up later today (have a track meet) thanks for the comments!!

Yeah, the idea looks good. Maybe a way to mount the components in a cleaner fashion?
 
Maybe put it in a different hard disk shaped and sized box, and mount it in a hard drive bay? Looks good and seeing as it works at all, it shows you've got the tech down. Nice one!

Yeah....was thinking about bending some thin sheetmetal into a box then just fasten it down over the wiring mess using the bolts holding the aluminum plate and maybe paint it black but yeah ive got the main parts down gunna tidy it up next week when i go back to my dads but the concept is there for you to see.
