just finished my first 2 mods

stereomod · 18-March-04, 04:26 PM

i lightened my case by removing a cross bar and cutting a hole for my fan with a temp circut from a open psu and it works ok and the hole was perfectly cut the first time so i didn't have to do it again

so all in all it was a good mod day
will have pics soon

edit just finished top hole too it also turned out perfect but went through 6 dremel blades
the top is thicker than the sides

excellent work. My first holes were made with a power drill and tin nibblers, they don't exactly look nice. good to hear you did it right.

My first holes were made with a holesaw

Hole saws are definitely the way to go. Got to make sure you get the bi-metal ones or they wont work. I just got my new toy in yesterday. Cant wait to hack something up.

exactly what is that? some kind of nibbler

i prefer to use the dremel that way i can smooth out any rought spots on it with my smoothing blade it makes modding case much easier.
