MonsterMawd Posted December 2, 2009 Author Share Posted December 2, 2009 1/4" thick White acrylic sheet with District 9 sign will be the grill for 2x 200mm top fans We cnc milled the grill, but If you have custom laser cutting needs, I suggest contacting http://www.vintagelaser.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MonsterMawd Posted December 2, 2009 Author Share Posted December 2, 2009 Today I worked on the acrylic plates for the right hand side panel. I used the barrel engraving bit to create cracks around the hole. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MonsterMawd Posted December 3, 2009 Author Share Posted December 3, 2009 Here is some screen shots taken from the movie trailer on Youtube. I think it's important to have the prawn canister implemented into the case. If Cooler Master had requested watercooling, it would been fun to make a reservoir based on the canister, but the system will be air cooled. We have some 2" diameter solid rod on hand we could use to re-create something close to it. I have some ideas, but want to have it my hands first before I commit to them.

Delusion77 Posted December 4, 2009 Share Posted December 4, 2009 this is looking really sick! i loved the D9 movie + I'm SouthAfrican if the system were L/C you could do even more crazy d9 themed stuff. that canister looks very similar to the EK multioption res Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MonsterMawd Posted December 6, 2009 Author Share Posted December 6, 2009 Yes, thank you! These are the diamond knurl machined aluminum case feet shown in the original concept. The 840 comes with feet, but these fit the industrial theme. The only modding necessary was drilling out the existing threaded holes with 3/16 drill bit for 8/32 screws included with diamond knurl feet.

I rarely post on these forums, but I have to say this is ABSOULTELY fantastic! Seriously sir(s), bravo...well done! Personally, I'd love to see the canister work with the case, maybe serve as an attachment on the top of the case or on one of the side panels? At least just for aesthetics...

Maxession Posted December 8, 2009 Share Posted December 8, 2009 I've seen the movie yesterday (it's superb!), so I finally understand what your mod is about. Love the paintjob, the white and orange gona look great. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
