Day 15

For the bonet and boot, I used disposable chopsticks and super glue to make the hinge mechanism.

After that, I used a brush to paint the undercoat and let them dry for 24 hours.

Day 16

I used a drill and a router table to make a slot that holds the PSU power cable extension plug

Then, I sand off the  uneven surfaces of the undercoat paint up to 500 grid to get a smooth surface for the black paint later.

For the black paint, I bought an F-75 air spray gun to paint it. I coated it 4 times to get a really glossy surface and a thicker protection to the case. I also painted the L-brackets. Then, I let them dry for 50 hours.

Day 17

For the wheels, I've bought two pairs of 90mm diameter RC Car wheel, they looked really awesome but rubber tyre part is way too soft, it flattens whenever it's loaded which doesn't look great.

To solve this, I've tried stuffing papers, cloths or even tiny wooden pieces in the tyre but they all didn't really worked out for me. At the end, the perfect solution for this is to cut some hard sponges into the shapes as shown in the picture with the width of the inner part of the tyre and stuffed them in evenly.

To secure the wheels onto the case, I used the same M4 threaded inserts as the connector for the wheels that came along was also M4 in size.

Day 18

After all the paints are completely dry, I decides to make a test fit for one last time before the actual assembly and also roughly worked on the cable management

Also note that the AIO CPU Block was sticking out as I'm only gonna replace the cooler and the thermal paste on the final assembly.  


**Note: I borrowed ARGB Ram sticks from my friend to make it look better, they are not the ram sticks I mentioned in the specs.
