Mnpctech.com Posted May 29, 2018 Author Share Posted May 29, 2018 Progress so far on the chassis. I've modified and removed the distracting hexagon from the front filter screen. I will be creating new filter. I've also made custom aluminum stand-offs for the front bezel, to improve airflow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
