I started by drawing on a wooden sheet for the mold where i want the components to fit.





then i started creating the molds for the base



Poured the resin


after a day of curing in the sun



A rough shell base has begun.

Framing the base !!!

measured up the aluminum fram around the plexi bottom





PS fan cutout





MB board tray cut out



resizing the ice base



fan & rom bay cut outs I used a router for fan cut out and upper plexglass







test fit

I like where this is going.

Very cool so far!

My favorite part of the build ecting and illuminating The Sapphire Logo.







laying everything out for full assembly





the first side panel



added the sdd and the front logo



Rad & fans



added the Blue ray & PS + side panels



Cutout for the upper case fan to blow on the GPU



Super tight fit for water cooling and wires



cleaned up the wiring



Dropping the MB onto the base.

That looks really cool. I like it very much. Are you going to put a handle on top or somewhere so you can lift it? Just wondering how much do you think it weighs?
