Hello everybody, and welcome to yet another of my modded projects! I would like to introduce you to my project named "Origami" which features the exclusive In Win S-Frame chassis.The name Origami is inspired by the way this single 2m long, 4mm thick aluminium plate has been folded 15 times to give this unique chassis it's form. There is no floor or roof, and tempered glass panels which really set this chassis aside from most all other PC enclosures on the market today. I felt that I would take on the challenge of modding this chassis to enhance its design in typical MetallicAcid style, complete with brushed aluminium panels, and a full custom water cooled loop with hardline tubing.Definition of "Origami" according to Dictionary.com:[awr-i-gah-mee] noun, plural origamis for 2.The traditional Japanese art or technique of folding paper into a variety of decorative or representational forms, as of animals or flowers.Thank you to all of my sponsors who have contributed to making this project a reality, as it has been extremely fun to work on!! :) I love the end results!Please enjoy!Kind regards,Justin "MetallicAcid" OhlsenFeatured on 9gag with 5000+ upvotes :'D HAHAhttp://9gag.com/gag/aVPYOj8/-origami-by-metallicacid
