| DarthBeavis AMerican Flag build |
|
This one will go to OMSI ( http://www.omsi.edu/ ) tomorrow with Autopsy for display over the Summer. The display will feature a demo of Nvidia 3d Stereo and will include a 3d LCD monitor and a couple sets of 3d glasses (tethered of course so they do not walk away). The case is a special-edition of the Danger Den Tower 21. This one, whose extra-wide specifications first designed by Vector of PDXLAN, houses an Intel Bonetrail 2 motherboard, Q6600, and Nvidia 9800 GX2 with Crucial Ballistix Tracer ram. It will have a WD Raptor X mounted so you can see the drive spining from the side panel. The non-mobo facing panel continues the solid flag image and has the LED strips to light it. The mobo panel has a continuation of the same print but the white areas of the flag are left clear when printing so you can see inside the case. A side panel with sponsor etching (the clear flag decal will be mounted on the inside of that panel with the etching on the outside) is shown here as well.
Parts testing in this test bench:
Etching:
Tower 21 next to Tower 26 (my clinic server project which will be another thread)

That looks pretty sweet!
Is the front with the stars any certain design? I happened to notice it wasn't 50 stars.

I love my MacBook Pro . . . .which has only booted into OSX for maybe 10 minutes since I have owned it. As for Corel Draw . . .that is the program Danger Den with the laser cutter so that is what I use to design panels and custom acrylic parts (mobo trays, etc).
SoundEvolution is right. Smooth and I have parted ways. This is printing now paint MUCH CHEAPER as well.

So then you are only like 60% patriotic?
I'm just thinking that if it's for the troops that fight for our country, someone else may notice the lack of stars too.
But you could argue that there are actually only 48 "united" states and some of those are technically not "states" as they are still classified as "commonwealths". So that brings it down to 44 if that helps.

By the way, the corner shot looks awesome - says the foreigner.
