tankian Posted January 26, 2015 Share Posted January 26, 2015 Sponsor: Cooler Master Portugal SilverStone GOPECAUTO Hi everyone this is my project, i started this year, hope u guys like it! Specs:MB - Asus Z87 - ACPU - i5 4690kCooler - WaittingRAM - 16GbGPU - R9 270x HawkStorage - 3 SSD'sPS - WaittingFan - WaittingSleeved Cables - SilverStone Black/GoldSo i will tell you my story.. Im from Portugal and when i bought my pc parts i wanted a "beautifull case", but all the cases that i liked were out of stock, so i decide to take the oportunity to make one that i will not complain for anything! So i made a draw about what i wanted, and then a 3D version of it.This is not my first project, i made one last year, to test my skills and to see if i can really finish it, i ended up winning "This Is My PC" from Shapphire what i didnt expected (my case was literally made from old iron bars and other low quality materials).When i finish my firts scrath build i always thought making this one, but of course "no money no honey", so I had to put this new project on hold. I started to work in Dezember, thats means i have the "money for the honey" and i start draw some ideas, and next put them on SketchUp 3D program (its the only one i know how to use) and "Eureka" project donne! About the project name, its simple i decided to call "tankian Project", because this is all about me, evolve my skills, challenging my self to do my best and of course to satisfy me as a person! Now lets see some photos! Project that win Sapphire contest "This Is My PC" (with the awards, SSD HyperX and 8G Kingston Kit): "tankian Project" 3D Project:Materials: Structure: Fan position:Fan Air tunnel:And that's it, for now! i will post new stuff when i have it, so hope u guys like it and follow me!

tankian Posted January 27, 2015 Author Share Posted January 27, 2015 Hi everyone!I got some smal news, yeah the project will go slow but steady i only have the weekend and 1hour per day in the week Today i finish one important step, the plate that covers the "fan tunnel", its important because with this piece on place i can now use Poliester Mass to cover all edges and make them flat and better looking.If u check the 3D model on first topic u can find that on top of the plate that covers the "fan tunnel" is a black box, that box is a simulation of an SSD, so i will have one SSD in exhibition and the power sata cable and sata cable will come from the hole in the plate. Plate that covers the "fan tunnel" So as u can see i glue the plate, in the first time i wanted to use rivets(dont know if is correct, its mostly the same of screws) to fix it in place, but using them it will end with the flat surface that i wanted, so best and easy way was glue everything with a strong silicone!Tomorow i will see if it worked So for today is this, not much but as i said will be slow but steady Best Regards for everyone!PS: Sorry about the bad speach, English is not my main language, if u see any error or any mistake feel free to tell me in private message so i can correct it! Thanks! PS2: U can see diferent work tables because i normaly take all my tools to girlfriend house Sponsor by:Cooler Master Portugal-Site: www.coolermaster.com/-Facebook: www.facebook.com/coolermasterportugalGOPECAUTO-Site: http://www.gopecauto.com/-Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/gopecautoSilverStone-Site: http://silverstonetek.com/index.php?area=en-Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/SilverStoneEnglish Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tankian Posted February 21, 2015 Author Share Posted February 21, 2015 Hello everyone i got some news!Yes it take a long time to get to this part, but at 19h PM is kinda cold to be on my "worklab", and only this week the time got more cosy to be outside So i finish off all poliester spots and ending up painting everything with primer.This is the result:Best regards!Sponsor by:Cooler Master Portugal-Site: www.coolermaster.com/-Facebook: www.facebook.com/coolermasterportugalGOPECAUTO-Site: http://www.gopecauto.com/-Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/gopecautoSilverStone-Site: http://silverstonetek.com/index.php?area=en-Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/SilverStoneEnglish Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tankian Posted February 28, 2015 Author Share Posted February 28, 2015 Hello! So this week i really didnt have the time to make anything, only for thinking about how to solve some problems, such as:- How to suport acrylic pieces in place without sticking:- Possibility to put RGB leds beneath the acriylic pieces parts so that the edges become illuminated.- Underlay some spots, so they are not visible.So because i didnt have acrylic or leds became a little confused about what to do, but today i had time to go see acrylic and aluminum pieces to actually have a physical view of things.Eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee .... Eureka! : DHere is the result:And the idea that I want to do with the leds:The track has a width of 1cm, in the case will use acrylic 5mm and Kapaline (if possible 4 / 5mm) to cover the spots that i dont want visible.By the way if the idea of ​​the leds beneath the acrylic does not result i will not have to change anything in the structure that did ^^Tomorrow i will give the primary and take more photos to show!
