Hey guys! Here I am again and I have a small update for the top panel. Spent tons of time filing down the sides and edges of the aluminium sheet. And let the excruciating filing begin.. And this is how the top panel will look like. Although I still need to bend the edges of the top panel frame that I made. I might try that tomorrow or I might strip off the X9 case to pieces to take some more measurements. The top panel will have 2 opening doors. Thanks for checking out my work log and see you guys in the next update!

"Swag"-gernaut!

Hello Guys! My name is Jonathan A.K.A SpH!Nx, fairly new to the "modding world", and being part of the Thermaltake Case MOD Invitational Season 2 is a huge honor for me! I will be representing Canada. Before anything else, I would like to say thank you for dropping by and taking your time to take a peek at my work log for this project. This is going to be a "life changing" journey for me. For this first post/update, there's really not much that I could throw in except for a few photos of the components for my project. The theme that I went with for this project is, well, some sort of Gundam "ish" theme. I wanted this project to be simple but still packs a little bit of punch or a little bit of "Wow" factor. I named this project "G-X902". "G" is for the theme, which is Gundam "ish" and the color scheme of the build, which will be gun metal gray, "X9" is for the star of the show, the Core X9 case, and "02" stands for Season 2 of the Thermaltake Case MOD Invitational. The name looks simple, but still has some deeper meaning into it. And in addition, I will be adding a little bit of twist/surprise in this project. I won't reveal it until the build is close to completion. Here we go! First off, of course, the main star of the show, the monstrous Core X9 (this thing is heavier than me!). And of course, having a monstrous case means you need to have a monstrous and sexy power supply too! Last week Saturday and Sunday, I was able to do a little bit of aluminum cutting. This will be part of the top panel for this build/project. 1/16" (1.5875mm) thick aluminum is fun to cut using a jigsaw...... and painful in the ears too! The photo above was taken last Sunday. That was the furthest that I got to do last weekend since while I was doing the measurements for the cut, it started to rain, and it started to pour, and then it REALLY started to rain, HARD, and in addition, the wind started to pick up, A LOT! So I decided to stop working on it since everything is getting really wet from the stupid rain. Well, that's it for now for me. Hopefully, this coming weekend, the weather will be much more better so I could "cure my itch" for modding! Again, thank you guys for checking out my work log. Be sure to come back again next time!
