Dirk kramer Posted June 19, 2017 Share Posted June 19, 2017 Hey enthusiastic PC builders, I'm going to start a new casemod, this time a micro-ATX build in the Aerocool DS cube. It has to be an HTPC that can also be used as a LAN-box, so it has to be a freaking awesome case. Hardware : not known yet Cooling components: Not known yet Here are some pictures of the Aerocool DS Cube. http://dkmodding.nl/files/PCBUILDS/AeroCube/Buildlog/C1(550).jpg http://dkmodding.nl/files/PCBUILDS/AeroCube/Buildlog/C2(550).jpg http://dkmodding.nl/files/PCBUILDS/AeroCube/Buildlog/C3(550).jpg http://dkmodding.nl/files/PCBUILDS/AeroCube/Buildlog/C4(550).jpg http://dkmodding.nl/files/PCBUILDS/AeroCube/Buildlog/C5(550).jpg http://dkmodding.nl/files/PCBUILDS/AeroCube/Buildlog/C6(550).jpg http://dkmodding.nl/files/PCBUILDS/AeroCube/Buildlog/C7(550).jpg http://dkmodding.nl/files/PCBUILDS/AeroCube/Buildlog/C8(550).jpg http://dkmodding.nl/files/PCBUILDS/AeroCube/Buildlog/C9(550).jpg http://dkmodding.nl/files/PCBUILDS/AeroCube/Buildlog/C10(550).jpg Playing with some LED`s. http://dkmodding.nl/files/PCBUILDS/AeroCube/Buildlog/C11(550).jpg http://dkmodding.nl/files/PCBUILDS/AeroCube/Buildlog/C12(550).jpg See you soon :sunglasse Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dirk kramer Posted June 23, 2017 Author Share Posted June 23, 2017 This week started making a midplate and some minor adjustments to the case itself ;): http://dkmodding.nl/files/PCBUILDS/AeroCube/Buildlog/1(550).jpg http://dkmodding.nl/files/PCBUILDS/AeroCube/Buildlog/2(550).jpg http://dkmodding.nl/files/PCBUILDS/AeroCube/Buildlog/3(550).jpg http://dkmodding.nl/files/PCBUILDS/AeroCube/Buildlog/4(550).jpg http://dkmodding.nl/files/PCBUILDS/AeroCube/Buildlog/5(550).jpg http://dkmodding.nl/files/PCBUILDS/AeroCube/Buildlog/6(550).jpg http://dkmodding.nl/files/PCBUILDS/AeroCube/Buildlog/7(550).jpg Pre-drill the holes and then cut out with the cutter. http://dkmodding.nl/files/PCBUILDS/AeroCube/Buildlog/8(550).jpg http://dkmodding.nl/files/PCBUILDS/AeroCube/Buildlog/9(550).jpg http://dkmodding.nl/files/PCBUILDS/AeroCube/Buildlog/10(550).jpg Mid plate fits perfectly :D: http://dkmodding.nl/files/PCBUILDS/AeroCube/Buildlog/11(550).jpg http://dkmodding.nl/files/PCBUILDS/AeroCube/Buildlog/12(550).jpg http://dkmodding.nl/files/PCBUILDS/AeroCube/Buildlog/13(550).jpg I made a window in both side panels, here you can see the graphics card en later the cooling en hardware. http://dkmodding.nl/files/PCBUILDS/AeroCube/Buildlog/14(550).jpg http://dkmodding.nl/files/PCBUILDS/AeroCube/Buildlog/15(550).jpg http://dkmodding.nl/files/PCBUILDS/AeroCube/Buildlog/16(550).jpg http://dkmodding.nl/files/PCBUILDS/AeroCube/Buildlog/17(550).jpg http://dkmodding.nl/files/PCBUILDS/AeroCube/Buildlog/18(550).jpg http://dkmodding.nl/files/PCBUILDS/AeroCube/Buildlog/19(550).jpg Problem ?? Little space for power cables,s o I did a little adjustment. http://dkmodding.nl/files/PCBUILDS/AeroCube/Buildlog/20(550).jpg http://dkmodding.nl/files/PCBUILDS/AeroCube/Buildlog/21(550).jpg http://dkmodding.nl/files/PCBUILDS/AeroCube/Buildlog/22(550).jpg http://dkmodding.nl/files/PCBUILDS/AeroCube/Buildlog/23(550).jpg http://dkmodding.nl/files/PCBUILDS/AeroCube/Buildlog/24(550).jpg Did some wrapping on the midplate with some mat black. http://dkmodding.nl/files/PCBUILDS/AeroCube/Buildlog/25(550).jpg http://dkmodding.nl/files/PCBUILDS/AeroCube/Buildlog/26(550).jpg http://dkmodding.nl/files/PCBUILDS/AeroCube/Buildlog/27(550).jpg I got the idea of making a pump with reservoir combo in the front of the case, so the round hole has already been made. Had two more pass through fittings spare, so I used them to make an easy connection through the midplate. http://dkmodding.nl/files/PCBUILDS/AeroCube/Buildlog/28(550).jpg http://dkmodding.nl/files/PCBUILDS/AeroCube/Buildlog/29(550).jpg http://dkmodding.nl/files/PCBUILDS/AeroCube/Buildlog/30(550).jpg http://dkmodding.nl/files/PCBUILDS/AeroCube/Buildlog/31(550).jpg http://dkmodding.nl/files/PCBUILDS/AeroCube/Buildlog/32(550).jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dirk kramer Posted July 8, 2017 Author Share Posted July 8, 2017 Hey, another update. This week I started with the front panel of the case. I used the Asus Mayan pattern for the front, later on there will be a lot of RGB led`s behind this panel and case parts. http://dkmodding.nl/files/PCBUILDS/AeroCube/Buildlog/33(550).jpg http://dkmodding.nl/files/PCBUILDS/AeroCube/Buildlog/34(550).jpg http://dkmodding.nl/files/PCBUILDS/AeroCube/Buildlog/35(550).jpg http://dkmodding.nl/files/PCBUILDS/AeroCube/Buildlog/36(550).jpg http://dkmodding.nl/files/PCBUILDS/AeroCube/Buildlog/37(550).jpg http://dkmodding.nl/files/PCBUILDS/AeroCube/Buildlog/38(550).jpg http://dkmodding.nl/files/PCBUILDS/AeroCube/Buildlog/39(550).jpg http://dkmodding.nl/files/PCBUILDS/AeroCube/Buildlog/40(550).jpg http://dkmodding.nl/files/PCBUILDS/AeroCube/Buildlog/41(550).jpg http://dkmodding.nl/files/PCBUILDS/AeroCube/Buildlog/42(550).jpg http://dkmodding.nl/files/PCBUILDS/AeroCube/Buildlog/43(550).jpg http://dkmodding.nl/files/PCBUILDS/AeroCube/Buildlog/44(550).jpg http://dkmodding.nl/files/PCBUILDS/AeroCube/Buildlog/45(550).jpg http://dkmodding.nl/files/PCBUILDS/AeroCube/Buildlog/46(550).jpg http://dkmodding.nl/files/PCBUILDS/AeroCube/Buildlog/47(550).jpg http://dkmodding.nl/files/PCBUILDS/AeroCube/Buildlog/48(550).jpg http://dkmodding.nl/files/PCBUILDS/AeroCube/Buildlog/49(550).jpg http://dkmodding.nl/files/PCBUILDS/AeroCube/Buildlog/50(550).jpg http://dkmodding.nl/files/PCBUILDS/AeroCube/Buildlog/51(550).jpg http://dkmodding.nl/files/PCBUILDS/AeroCube/Buildlog/52(550).jpg http://dkmodding.nl/files/PCBUILDS/AeroCube/Buildlog/53(550).jpg http://dkmodding.nl/files/PCBUILDS/AeroCube/Buildlog/54(550).jpg http://dkmodding.nl/files/PCBUILDS/AeroCube/Buildlog/55(550).jpg http://dkmodding.nl/files/PCBUILDS/AeroCube/Buildlog/56(550).jpg http://dkmodding.nl/files/PCBUILDS/AeroCube/Buildlog/57(550).jpg Used some primer, more in the next update http://dkmodding.nl/files/PCBUILDS/AeroCube/Buildlog/58(550).jpg If you have any questions, I'd love to hear those :D: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dirk kramer Posted August 14, 2017 Author Share Posted August 14, 2017 I got a new tool for modding, bought this airbrush starter-pack with some paint to get started. For a first time I did a nice job I think, of course there are some points we can improve but we can work on that. http://dkmodding.nl/files/PCBUILDS/AeroCube/Buildlog/59(550).jpg http://dkmodding.nl/files/PCBUILDS/AeroCube/Buildlog/60(550).jpg These colors I`m going to use on the case. (red madder dark, black) http://dkmodding.nl/files/PCBUILDS/AeroCube/Buildlog/61(550).jpg http://dkmodding.nl/files/PCBUILDS/AeroCube/Buildlog/62(550).jpg http://dkmodding.nl/files/PCBUILDS/AeroCube/Buildlog/63(550).jpg First I used the color (red madder dark), then I used a airbrush and brush and added the color (black). And added a clear coating, for a first time I did a great job I think. http://dkmodding.nl/files/PCBUILDS/AeroCube/Buildlog/64(550).jpg http://dkmodding.nl/files/PCBUILDS/AeroCube/Buildlog/65(550).jpg http://dkmodding.nl/files/PCBUILDS/AeroCube/Buildlog/66(550).jpg http://dkmodding.nl/files/PCBUILDS/AeroCube/Buildlog/67(550).jpg http://dkmodding.nl/files/PCBUILDS/AeroCube/Buildlog/68(550).jpg http://dkmodding.nl/files/PCBUILDS/AeroCube/Buildlog/69(550).jpg http://dkmodding.nl/files/PCBUILDS/AeroCube/Buildlog/70(550).jpg http://dkmodding.nl/files/PCBUILDS/AeroCube/Buildlog/71(550).jpg http://dkmodding.nl/files/PCBUILDS/AeroCube/Buildlog/72(550).jpg http://dkmodding.nl/files/PCBUILDS/AeroCube/Buildlog/73(550).jpg http://dkmodding.nl/files/PCBUILDS/AeroCube/Buildlog/74(550).jpg http://dkmodding.nl/files/PCBUILDS/AeroCube/Buildlog/75(550).jpg The sharpness of the pictures will improve in the next update.
