Well, I finally got motivated to finish the side panel yesterday so Sprocket's shell is complete.
Due to technical considerations I was unable to make the sidepanel window's rear margin match the roof vent's, which I consider an aesthetic boo-boo, but overall the look is what I was aiming for.
If I could start again ( and I'm not), not only would those margins line up but I probably wouldn't have the fillport mounted in the roof either...seemed like a good idea at the time but doesn't add any useful functionality and ruins the clean look it had previously.
Oh well.
As for the front...
This is probably going to change.
The fan controllers are probably going to go, replaced with a CrystalFontz display.
None of the AeroCool Turbine fans will start with less than 12v (probably due to the LEDs) and in use they are so quiet that regulating them down is pointless.
Then again, I may just let her stand and move on to the Apple G5 case project...

Snazzy, though the effect of that first pic is seriously marginalized by the unexplained (and unexplainable) presence of a VHS copy of Cabaret.

I'm glad you picked up on that nuance.
I keep my life savings in that box knowing full well that no one will ever touch it.
Liza was cute though....

True enough...would that she had stayed that way.

In reply (late as it may be) to your above comment, my ultimate objective is something along the lines of this linked project, but taylored to my specific needs.

I am quite sure that my first attempt will not result in anything quite as polished as this, but I'll first shoot for function, then concern myself with form at a later date/revision. It will give you an idea, however, of where I'm going with it. I want ease of use, but a little more flair than the "mobo on top of a cardboard box" look as often portrayed over at XS.
This second link is to the source of the pic, as well as the rest of the gallery.

Another scary case of parallel thinking Reef...I had just been comtemplating This article and musing about a self-made version.
The entire concept is oddly compelling.
Carry on and keep us posted.

Pneuberator.
I've been thinking of fabbing something along those lines as well. Wierd.
Wierder yet, I was looking at the pics of Sprocket, and,
dude, I swear this isn't my imagination.....she winked at me.
I am just a worthless liar. I am just an imbecile.
I will only complicate you. Trust in me and fall as well.
I will find a center in you. I will chew it up and leave.
I will work to elevate you just enough to bring you down.

She's a total slut.Wierder yet, I was looking at the pics of Sprocket, and,

Now that the new Gigabyte I-Ram has come out she'll be whoring about trying to lure somebody/anybody into buying her one.
You know- flash a little thigh, shake a little booty....whatever it takes.
