project: PVC mod

[jwadd]

After buying all the parts for my computer a few weeks ago, i wasnt left with enough money to buy a proper case, so i opted to build one. Out of PVC pipe. This is my progress thus far.

i'm thinking about getting some wire mesh as walls, so i can place fans where ever i want, and i need to add some more pvc so that the hd and psu sit properly. Comments, suggestions?

how's this?

You need to get a "T" and put it on the sides and run another pipe along the back of the mobo tray. And maybe a month for a cd-rom. Thats what i see for now.

It's been a while since I've seen a PVC case. Looks good so far.

add some sides.... mesh or lexan or something... paint the PVC you could make it look presentable

I don't get it? It looks like a PVC cube with a mobo attached.. Doe the hardware connect to the tubing at all??

update: got the t sections in. took a few pictures that are below.

soon i will adjust the lengths of the sides so that the mobo tray is held in place by mechanical tension... i was waiting until after i had fixed the psu and hdd in place to do so. right now the dimensions are fairly rough.
i got some wire mesh so my next step is to cut 8 pieces for each open area of pvc and affix it with crazy glue.

the slant that the mobo tray had to it is now gone.
you can see my gettho spacer for the third fan on my scythe cooler... ill figure something out for that later...
