More case modding ideas - Advice wanted!
« on: June 26, 2005 03:13 pm CDT »
Ok I have been harboring an idea for a while now about a case mod I want to do.....A Clock Mod for the side panel, so when Im playing full screen games and there's no clock around (Like at LAN parties), I can check the time without lifting a finger. I have this clock mechanisim I ripped out of it's holder here...



I want to drill a hole in the side of my case, about the size of a small bead, so I can mount the motor on the inside and let the hands show on the outside.



My only problem is with the case color. I don't plan on keeping that design, esspecially since the quality is acctually very bad. Silver, maybe? Also, what about numbers or sybols to show what time it is with the clock?

Take and use the old clock face as a stencil, by cuting the numbers out with a razor blade or something. Then paint in, or spray paint the numbers on.

Here's a pretty neat mod project, the PC Tachometer.  This device shows your cpu usage, very unique, especially for lan parties i'd say.
