New Rig!! "The Master"

[Zuntar]

I am puting together a new rig, code named "The Master". :p
Why "The Master" you ask? It is a standing joke/nickname given by my wife and Pastor. I was the "game master" for all the youth group activities at our church years ago and I am the Webmasterfor the church website, etc etc etc.

The Case to which I am going to start this project with is none other then "The Wavemaster" from Coolermaster.
I have already ordered the case, a UV cold cathode light, a UV reactive IDE & floppy drive cables, and a Red UV reactive Cable Sleeving Kit.

I, due to funds, must work on this project in several stages, the case & PS mods will be the first part of the project! I will post pics and editorials as possible. for now im just waiting on UPS! :D :D

P.S. WOOOO HOOOO!!!!! ;)

you can sleave all you cables with UV stuff. basicall look at thier psus and you will see sleeves on all the wire. Not pricy if you look at it this way. they cahrge 50 extra for a psu but its sleeved to whatever you want and ive sleeved one before take FOREVER

Yea, I'm shootin for lots of colorful lights n such. I have gobs of LEDs from work (test samples) so I've been toying with those a while and the UV stuff should add some KILLA effects. There will be pics. ;)

psu sleeving can be a pain in the butt if its your first time

Ohh mAN, You ain't lyin!! :eek:

Found some things that made it alot easier
1. I "borrowed" (they have more then they would ever need) a pin extractor from work.
2. Wrapped the pins together with electrical tape so when shoving the sheeving and heat shrink on, it went on smooth and quickly.
3. I didn't have a HOT KNIFE to cut the sleeving. So after it was cut, I tapped the hot soldering iron on the ends lightly to keep them from fraying.
4. found out the hard way that when heating up the heat shrink, YOU HAVE TO BE CAREFUL OF THE SLEEVING, it melts easy!! :o

more later!! ;)

[GnomeWizardd]

d00d things that make it wasy


Electrical tape which you did
Pin extractor which you did
I used a lighter to stop the sleaving from fraying
when shrinking the tape spend 60 bucks at sears and buy a professional heat gun! made it go like cake!

[Zuntar]

I had a professional heat gun, forgot to mention that. A lot less chance to catch stuff on FIRE!!! :D

Although fire is GOOOOD!!! :cool:

Gnomewizardd,
Ok, so if you did this then where are your Pics young man????

[Nive11en]

Pics!
Ooh! That is sweet sleeving! UPS that PSU to me then :D

(btw I sent you a priv msg Zuntar about how its possible to have 333mhz on a max 266mhz chipset? or does the -R version of the KT3 have greater max fsb?)

[Nebulous]

Very nice sleeving job! :)
