Seriously... I have two kids as well and live in apt. so no garage. :(
I need my coolermaster Wave Master's side panel to have a 120 mm hole (over the CPU area) with a duct that goes into the case couple of inches... :D PM me on a price quote! ;)
Peter
Pro... are you serious??!
Shipping here and back is going to add a bit on the expense side!
Lemme know if you are serious and we'll try and work something out.
I'm quite serious. I'd be shipping just the side panel btw. ;)Quote:

These are the types of statements,that make me realize how small NJ is. :D
Oh yeah! Don't start and remind me of driving to Phoenix, AZ (when my wife used to attend ASU)! of 16 hour driving, I spent 10 just to get out of Texas!! :eek: :mad:Quote:

Labor would be minimal, I'm more concerned with the cost of shipping the panel.Quote:

I wasn't even going to mount a fan on the hole. Just wanted that hot heat to come out... I was thinking of putting a duct over the 120 mm fan that blows heat away from the heatsink... Hmm... do you have any thin aluminum pipe (diameter of 120 mm) that could be used? At the least, I wanted a vent.Quote:

It got sucked into the lower belt cover and smacked around and sanded where it should have been.... ;)
... well, I fixed it last night!
I found my spare 5.25 panel, lopped the legs off of it, plopped it on my belt sander (after adjusting the work stop to be lower so that the front plate would not slip under the stop) , and made it nice and thin!
Then I used some adhesion promoter and colored the front panel to the same color depth as the others!
I now have the front panel attached to the computer, and it was the right thickness, as I hot glued a little piece of acrylic on the inside of the bay cover so that it is positioned right over the eject button. Now, because I sanded down the bay cover, there is a little play in the front, and by pushing the lower right corner of the panel, it depresses the eject button.
Works like a champ now! It does not look ant different than the last panel, only that it now functions to allow for the eject button to be hit!
YAY!!!
The family is about done! I just need to get some decal paper for the BOSS logos on the keyboard, but I may be able to take a family picture of everything by this evening!
;)
Family picture. LOL :cool:

Texas is one of the only states I know of that you can drive all day at top speed, and still be in the same state.
Ain't that the truth?!! :) Back on topic, tech-daddie, I'm too anxious to get this side panel modding done! Think you can get me a quote?!! :DQuote:
