The Beer Keg PC Case Mod Seen At PDX LAN 16.5

Post by Apoptosis »

A keg computer was spotted at PDX 16.5 today... Why didn't I think of this!

Notice he's using an AB (Anheuser-Busch) Keg!!

I generally don't like lights and LEDs but this things is bad***. I guess he thought cutting into the keg was worth losing the deposit on the refill. Is the AB logo painted or brushed to the original aluminum?

He powder coated it all then hand painted them. The creater is named Ben Lzicar

Some build pictures from the builders facebook page - http://www.facebook.com/album.php?aid=5 ... =884900649
Hand painted the eagle emblems, it's funny how they all turned out a little different, but they look pretty good, especially when you're a couple feet a way they look like actual decals.
