For summer work, I work for a fencing company and it was raining today... the boss called me at 7:30am to tell me that I had the day off due to the weather... soooooo out came the drill:


drilled a number or 3/16" pilot holes - some will receive grommets while others will take 10-32 screws:

Then out came the Unibit to drill out some holes to 1/2" and some to 5/8" for different size grommets:

Grommets inserted:

and the finished product with grommets installed as wire pass-throughs:

Cut out a couple pieces of the 24x24 mesh for the front fans to act as a filter and punched some 3/16" holes in them:

installed behind the fan grills:

Got the second pump bracket mounted as well as one of the MCRES-Micros

I need to get a Bitspower 45 degree elbow for that bottom fitting on the reservoir so it will make the bend to the pump inlet, otherwise it looks great!

 

[visbits]

Looks good man

 

[Sneaky]

Did two more pass-through grommets tonight:

one for the front 120mm fan:

and one for the rear MFPP:

Alright, essentially over the past month, I moved out with a good friend of mine that was a recovering addict like me because I had known her for a while and we had a thing going for each other. The first week went fine in the new apartment, but within two weeks, she was back to drinking and drugging on a daily basis and life got chaotic and I couldn't handle it... I have better things going for me than that now. So over the past week I've been moving back to my parent's house and once again making progress on Zyklon B.


Last week I received a new-style acrylic EK Supreme HF top to match the second CPU block that I have:

and this week I received my two Sapphire HD5850's compliments of Stoneyman:

Soooooooooo... not to fear, Sneaky's back!
