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!!!!! ;)

    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!! ;)

    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!
