My New Bench Table *Its The Nuts*

Case Link (http://www.antec.com/us/productDetails.php?ProdID=15100#)

Today i decided i would improve on my benching table. I don't use a case as i like to be able to pick-up my system go to the garage and use cascade when i like. This saves on having 2 PSU's and is extremely simple for me to swap motherboards to my everyday one i use :D.

The Case is Stock Form

Firstly i did the screws though the Lid and Cut the Holes for the cables.

PSU fits nice inside and has the air holes which are placed a treat already :D

v sexy man, lovin it!

[weescott]

Great idea. love it.

I genuinely never thought of using a case as a mount...genius! :D

3CM is getting some more work done on it tonight/tomorrow, will get some pics up :D

[scooter.jay]

i was going to buy a motherboard tray but that looks like a much better idea hopefully i can do the same sort of thing when i set mine up, but wont be till middle of 2008 now:(

[Dualist]

That's a wicked idea Dave :thumb:

[4Qman]

Hey thanks everyone :biggrin:,.

When i mentioned it to Sacha he said go ahead do it. + make use of the case i got for nothing off a friend.

Best bit is it holds a single HDD for everyday windows. Also i can have a 300w PSU that comes with the case as standard to power some extra bits if i require it.

I had afew ideas from seeing everyone set-ups at the LN2 day. I had a massive peice of wood which had it all laid out on. This is 10000x Better :D

Plans

I plan to make a bracket that will hold a 120mm fan. Also i want a bracket that will screw to the back where i can screw the Gfx card to like on a normal case so it supports it. Will have to pop round my mates tomorrow see what scpare cases i can use :p

Any improvements lads?

[skull_fcuk]

That is such a good idea i think i may emulate it (if that isnt considered rude). It just looks ideal for transporting a setup around to different locations. I too had thought about the big wooden solution, but this is much neater and more logical. Especially as it has a home for all the ancillary parts that never need super cooled but still need to be present.

[jabski]

[maverik-sg1]

Nice work there Dave, breath some life into those desktop boxes.

If you ever fancy doing another one, let me know ;)

[vento1]

I realy like it, thats a great idea and looks realy clean.

[sacha35]

Very nice Dave, it turned out very well, now get some plastic feet on the bottom of that case, we don't want anymore damaged tables.

[SoddemFX]

Great looking Dave, a nice job :)

[Stocky]

Nice idea :)

What do you have running inside the case itself? *hints for internal pics*

[Thickbrit]

Cheers dave,that is the perfect inspiration of what i need from a bench table.

[pants_marshall]

na man its fine. i measured load with a clamp meter :biggrin:

[skull_fcuk]

I'll assume that isnt anything to do with a Vehicle restraint :p Sorry, but working for Shell (idiots) has made me a bit safety concious. But not so much that i'm gonna make my boy wear padding to walk down the street or stop him climbing trees. *self slap for going OT*
