    Little Quick Passive Case Design...

    You'd almost be better having just a quater curved section in the corner, to bolt the heatsink panels on to, it'd cut costs and complications massively... Its hard to explain, but once I'm back home, I can do a quick mock up if you want. As for 3D printing it, the costs would indeed be high...

    Little Quick Passive Case Design...

    I don't typically work with custom extruded aluminum, but my train of thought would be somewhere along 1 to 1.5mm minimum of an aluminum magnesium alloy, which would offer strength, and the ability to get a nice finish. As for which specific alloy and its thermal properties, thats beyond me...

    Sketchup Newb here.

    Sketchup also offers its 'Warehouse' which is a collection of user made models, that can be very detailed, and to scale usually! If you're looking to mock up a design quickly, that's the place I'd personally recommend!

    Little Quick Passive Case Design...

    Looks neat, although, the centre hole on the 'T' shaped 'fin' seems a little strange, as little to no air would be able to escape from it, so it would act as a poorly preforming heat-pipe.. There are no dimensions, but I would presume a heat-sink of such calibre would preform well with higher...

    Who could help me get a custom power button?

    Is what your wanting basically that style, but with a different shaped face plate of sorts?

    Who could help me get a custom power button?

    It would take a long time due to work, and fitting it around other projects, but plausibly I could make one. If you want to send over some pictures of sketches or a rough cad model (sketchup or fusion 360 preferably) and ideas on materials, I'd be happy to take a look?

    Win "small" with the Enermax SteelWing!

    I would probably mod it into a nas, as it somehow reminds me of one. Naming wise, I'm not too good at naming, so it would probably fit to my usual scheme of 'that (case name here) build'. So 'that SteelWing build'. Thanks for the giveaways guys!

    The fun goes on! Win with SFF Network's post-CES giveaway

    sounds strange, but I really liked the mf 120 frame-less fans from Deepcool. The futuristic look makes me almost want to theme a scratch build around them...

    Power Supply 500W FlexATX PSU

    I read this thread, and decided to do some digging of my own on this topic, primarily the same size and wattage PSU as wanted, including the wanted cables e.t.c, to see if there was anything in the realms of the internet. I understand that a lot of planning, and physical testing has gone into...

    Power Supply SFX to Flex ATX bracket?

    I've done a bit more looking around, but still nothing, think i'll get it cut by a metal shop, then get handy with some metal taps and spray-paint! Didn't think of 3D-printing it, although I may do this in the future when I get the cash to do water-cooling so I can put a mount for a pump...

    Power Supply SFX to Flex ATX bracket?

    new to this forum, but just wandering if anyone knows where I could buy a bracket to mount a Flex ATX psu in a space with mounting holes for an SFX psu. I can find ones for ATX to TFX and the obvious ATX to SFX, but nothing to suite my needs. Any help would be much appreciated!
