tagmods Posted May 2, 2022 Report Share Posted May 2, 2022 Hey All! Sorry im late to the party the whole team got buried with F1 We are building a Thermaltake Variant of the Barbasol can with Jurassic Park Dominion around the corner it made sense! Step one: Drain a can of shaving cream and cut off the bottom! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tagmods Posted May 2, 2022 Report Share Posted May 2, 2022 Step 2: Luck out and find PVC fittings that fit perfectly after being shortened! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tagmods Posted May 2, 2022 Report Share Posted May 2, 2022 Step 3: Cut and weld in an Acrylic Buck so the solid base returns! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tagmods Posted May 2, 2022 Report Share Posted May 2, 2022 With a Solid based can that is easily removable it was time to work on the cartridge that would hold the RAM! Step 4: Build Cartridge The idea here was to hold the RAM steady so it could be easily removed and the samples (RAM sticks) could slide out to be examined Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tagmods Posted May 2, 2022 Report Share Posted May 2, 2022 Step 5: The Lablel! I needed to recreate the old school Barbasol can label in Illustrator so it could be printed and wrapped on the can. I started by recreating the label exactly as seen on screen. I then added some extra flourishes that hint at both Thermaltake and dinosaurs.

tagmods Posted May 2, 2022 Report Share Posted May 2, 2022 Decided since we have 2 cans that we should also do the Aloe variant! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tagmods Posted May 2, 2022 Report Share Posted May 2, 2022 Now to wrap the cans. Turn the RAM into samples and get some final shots done! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tagmods Posted May 2, 2022 Report Share Posted May 2, 2022 AND WE ARE DONE!
