Hello Thrasher2, those goodies look really great the switches you have there are they the ones that have the led in them like these, they would look good on your project.

Thanks Thrasher2, lets me see if i can find some in red and blue led 120mm fans and the grills sizes.
I like them for the nice shinny look they really stand out.

You will definitely like those switches i still have not got around to installing mine let, i have both the red and blue ones

#2 leaves you with enough room to put in a second fan, or atleast it looks that way. Otherwise I'd go with #1.

I like #1. What you could do with the spinner wheel is put a small 1.5v electric motor behind it and make it spin, or if you put a fan behind it, if the fan is close enough and you somehow molded blades onto the spinner wheel, the incoming air being forced into the fan would turn the spinner wheel. I have a 120mm Panaflo H1A exhaust fan in my main rig that pushes out something like 140cfm, and when I shut off the two 92mm intake fans, the left one closest to the exhaust fan still spins because the exhaust fan pulls so much air so quickly it has to pull it from the left fan hole since it is closest.

It would be easier and more realistic with the fan idea because the spinner wheel would revolve fewer times and would have a more fluid motion.

Dude - double fan it if you can!!!
2 spinners on the front will look super slick!

(are you planning on using the motorized spinner for the front or somewhere else?)

So... what are ya going to do?

I will take some pic's of the small spinner by the case to get a idea where it fits the best.
MasterP the Large spinner on the side will be motorized....Plus I have a wireless remote (For on/off)

SPINNERS RULE!!!!

since one intake fan in front is enough i'll go with number #1

this way it leave you more options to put something else on the 5 1/4 slot like another drive or some fan controler etc..
