Thanks Broots!
I know I've been slow as of late, call me unmotivated or whatever. Things have been getting better, so I've been more in the mood (or is it mod?!
) to work on things.
I polished my dangerden radeon block tonite. Now only if I had a radeon to put it on :P
First up: raw block straight out of the baggie from dangerden, kinda nasty.
After 220 wet-dry, took out the dents that the factoring lapping left.
After 400 wet-dry, gettin there kinda sorta...
After 1000+1500 (eh I was out of 800) pretty smooth, but not pretty yet.
After 8 or 9 passes with Brasso. Mirror, anyone? Excuse the crap on the plexi, I didn't notice it till i offloaded the pics... probably enamored by the shiny bits
That's all. Let me refresh the todo list:
Integrate modders mesh into intake hole for the radiator (~90% complete, needs to be primed)
1 Touch fan-bus (schematics started)
1 touch light-bus (ditto)
power distribution system for mods (scrapped, or falls under above.. dunno)
lighting mods (Radiator lighting done)
custom stainless steel feet? (going to Erie this weekend, might happen)
window designs? (Gigantic DESIGN BLOCK HELP!!!)
Convert pump plug (Done)
Smooth back plate (done)
Polish Blocks (done)
Polish 3rd L1A (done)
Relay system for PSU (machine wont turn on unless pump is active)
Custom front bezel involing
*stealthed slotload
*stealthed CDRW
*see-through to 10K RPM HDDs
*lighting mods for activity lights
*system health
*VFD
A pretty good dent. things should pick up when I actually have a chassis to work with
