The whole integrated mesh look was the primary reason for beginning this last mod cycle and I've been avoiding finishing it up.
Possibly because I was afraid it wouldn't turn out as I hoped, possibly because I knew that making the front panel was going to be trying.
Well, it did end up looking like I thought it would and indeed, the panel was a PITA to make.

Before someone mentions it....yes, the Stacker does come with meshed bay covers and yes, I could have used them and gotten nearly the same overall effect.
But, the look I was going for was smooth and integrated and the front bezel is now a match for the roof vent, which the stock covers were not.
Because I wanted no visible fasteners and clean, finished edges, the mesh panel has had all four sides flanged (it's basically a box without the top)...not really a big deal if one has a sheetmetal brake at hand.
Which surprisingly, I do.
Not big enough to accept this piece, naturally (it's a cheap Harbor Freight POS that I've had- for a project long forgotten- in the garage for maybe 15 years) so I had to Rube Goldberg my way through it.
The initial bends went quite quickly but the piece was not square and required endless tapping/fiddlefucking to make it so.
At this point friction is holding it in place, and absent a compelling reason to change it, I'll prolly just leave it be.
Pressing on the buttons doesn't budge it so I'm calling it good.
Vid card arrives Friday and I'm praying that the GPU waterblock will arrive by then also.
Sprocket may be ready to run by Sunday.
Question:
Does "fiddlefucking" actually require a violin, or will any stringed-instrument do in a pinch? :huh:
Cool, BTW; as intended, I'm sure.
A kazoo will suffice should the circumstances sink beyond reason.
Yes.Quote:

The Stasis Thermal waterblock has not shown up, USPS tracking is useless( nothing new there...) and Matt (owner of ST) has not responded to any emails.
If the block doesn't come today I'm dead in the water till at least Tuesday (Mon. being a Federal holiday...at least for bankers and the Post Office).
I'm getting so desperate I'm actually considering using the 7800 as it came from the box, but that would entail having to redo the loop when the Neptune finally materializes...assuming that it ever does.
Sigh.
