Project: Fraggasaurus Rex

Thanks for all the comments guys. :)

*Deep Breath*

It's about time to take another jab at painting...

Here's a PIC of the case fully assembled:

https://www.sharkyforums.com/images/...2004/08/59.jpg

I was thinking of painting all the drive/usb cover(s) white... But leaving the power/reset buttons black. Then paint any outside screws and fan grills white as well. Maybe instead of painting the interior black I should paint it white?

Or would that be taking the effect too far?

I love reading any & all ideas! :D

Edit- I can't speel.

I think it looks great like that, although white would splash things up a bit.

I bet y'all forgot about this one, huh? Well, I had to apply the break after school and life got in the way. Such trite and petty things really. The time has come, once again, to MOD! I realize a majority of the attraction to this monstrosity was the fact that it was phase-changed... Well, sadly my Prommie deemed me no longer worthy and flamboyantly pranced away into the sunset with BlueOval. I shed a few tears but resolved to pick up my Dremel once again and take another stab (literally) at completeing this thing.

I've got a pretty good idea of what I would like to do, but I'm still left scratching my head on a pretty big issue. I had to drill/cut some distracting holes in order to properly mount this guy on the Prometeia (Sorry about the PICS size, there's no Photoshop on this computer for whatever reason). Well, obviously I no longer have one so I'm clueless as to what to do with them. Any ideas from you guys would surely equal mucho loveo (Spanish for much love).

Besides that, I'm set. I'll hopefully have some progress soon.

Thanks for taking the time. :D

Case feet...time to get creative. And I don't mean you should get some of those lighted case feet...

If you could mod something like these to fit those holes, I think it would be pretty neat. Zemo used them on one of his amps he built, and they could end up looking cool with your case:)

Other than that, maybe just a piece of sheetmetal or a mirror to cover then up?

Case feet were the first thing to pop into my head, but a mirror sounds pretty damn cool too. I would have no idea where to get one though... Nor would I know how to cut/fit it properly. I don't think a Dremel would do the trick on a mirror. Unless you know something I don't. I think it's google time.

Thanks for the suggestions XP! :D

I did some searching around and found these sheets:

I think that'd work. I think.

Mirror would be cool. If your planning on painting the innards, then just use plaing shhet metal. If you still like to have a mirror paint first then add the mirror. Its about time Fraggasaurus Rex made its return....;)

Agreed!

I would also say go with the mirror if you can find one. I had a friend who had a broken mirror and happened to have a piece that fit almost perfect in the bottom of his case (just a little bit smaller). It looked really cool, but I don't know what kind of luck (HA! ;)) you'd have happening to find a broken mirror with a piece just the right size.

I think a red mirrored acrylic sheet bottom and a red Metalcast chassis would look reeeally good. It's set. Now to get to work.

Edit- Thanks guys!

It's really easy to make a mirror. All you gotta do is get some aluminum foil and glass. Making it red...hmm, some sort of red see-thru plastic to put on the mirror.

I posted this up there, but:

They sell red mirrored acrylic! :D

Edit- And the best part about it is that I can cut it for 80mm fans and XP's cool feet.
