sorry about the poor quality... BB 8310

My brother bought it last year for the heck of it and wanted me to "keep it safe" while he was deployed.

Pretty sure those are Mega Blocks or something, not Legos

l0l megablocks = retartded imitation legos

xBruce88x · Jun 23, 2011

eh they do the same thing... and you can combine them with Legos as well. (i do prefer the Lego brand better, the quality is better)

looks like an awesome mod in the making

I'd like not to think what would happen if one of the smaller pieces came loose and got jammed in one of the fans during a stress test but I can't help it :ohwell:

Maybe use longer blocks from the right side that come closer to the video card and rebuild the left side to see if ou can get it closer too.

thanks,i'm thinking about building all the sides up to an even height then putting plexiglass on it

my current case Xigmatek Asgard
i make it to place an intake fan since the front bezel has little space that aint allowed fan to attach on it

i tear the steel then i paint it with blue to prevent rust, and as usual i use zip ties to hold the fan

micropage7 · Jun 30, 2011

custom mouse feet

i replace my old mouse feet since it feel aint smooth to move
i use plastic from electronic box, it just about 0,2mm or 0,3 mm thick, cut it then glue it using double tape
then it done :ohwell:

micropage7 · Jul 9, 2011

I was thinking they need soldered and should of put heatwrap over the wire.

Is soldering "ghetto"?

only, if it looks awful, then its ghetto... if youre good at soldering/heatshrinking, then it can look as good as bought
