Default Window Design 102: Enter The Mod

Do to the length Of Window Design 101, I have started an new project thread and some details on more.

Well I have been in a stump as of late and things are coming around. I have the Patriot PC inside painted. A window for my little PhotoShop Pro for Dragon Mods, ChesireDemon. Re-moddin my misses PC (and upgrading but she doesn't know about that). SO I have a lot of things going on with my daily duties as Lead News Pimp, Working the Marble Shop, and keeping up with the hotel paper work.

I do have three things going now that I can't really talk about but you all will know about soon enough.

So what am I going to show you today? A blow-hole. Yep a blow-hole something I have needed to do for a long time actually ever since I did the review on this Antec Sonata. With all the talk about OCing from Zenn I wanted to push my rig as well. Even though I am water cooled I still haven't the airflow for the high OC. So today I finally broke down and took time for myself and do a simple mod for myself. Man I do miss modding, I have been away from it to long.

The best thing about this simple mod is that I still get to keep the front filter in place. The 120mm fan is all in the front bezel. And its a globe fan from MNPCTech w/ GliterKill's grill.

Great Idea cutting the blowhole that way .... helps accent GK's Tribal grill better than a simple round blowhole would

Unfortunately this one is a little at a time, as stated I have alot going and they do take priority over my own modding.

Update on my next Dragon Case for PR's contest.
I have my new dragon etched into a window and will be bubbled out. More on the way.

Enjoy.

Hope your Happy Kayin.

I like the window a lot Lokie. I really like your style of several layers of acrylic with different etchings.

I can't wait to start on my etchings when I get back home. I do have one question though, are you just using the protective layer that the acrylic comes with? Or additional masking film of some sort? I know you made a guide about this, I'll look for it before i get started on mine.

Good window.

Good window.

Yes I buy mine in sheets with the protective film on. Its easy to draw on because it's a film coating with paper on it. But the guide has it all if you need to mask off an area scotch tape is great for small areas and painters grade (I use green or blue from 3M) masking tape.

Likewise Zen^ Lokie's execution is always clean and well thought out.

The acrylic window idea was ingenious. I also like the triple fan holes.
