I would love to see your past works

You should be able to find j-dogg's past projects at the PCApex Forum (aka PimpRig)

Wow, that site is really broken.

It's went downhill about a year ago. About the same time I moved in here

Yoink...missed the second page somehow...lol, long day. [edited post]

For those interested, performance-pcs also has a number of channeling options, but more expensive:

Window Kits /Molding/Edging : Performance-PCs.com, ... sleeve it and they will come

I've always hated using u-channeling on square cuts, it's so hard to make it look clean. Anyways, looking forward to the end. Bah, I miss my mods....freak'n winter.

Wow, that site is really broken.

Amen to that, can't get the galleries to work.

Some of my former greatness.

Been a while.

LANtastic compact gaming system..... Athlon xp2600 / Nvidia 5700 Ultra hatched from a circa 1999 Gateway Celeron 366 microATX tower. Built this in early 05. The sheer amount of cooling in this case is a feat of greatness in itself.....one big giant 120mm Panaflo H1A intake and two Sunon 60mm exhaust fans....air cooled baby. Got a lot of WTF looks bringing this to LAN parties.....total sleeper.

Still keep this case around....I've thought about updating all the hardware in it but that would require a **** of a custom power supply enclosure. Shot these tonight.

Choppers Mod 1.0......epic fail.....but the cut came out pretty good.

Short Circuit....first mod. Did this like in 03 when I was a nub (ironically this is one of my favorite mods.....after I finish the Choppers Mod I'm going to re-do this case from scratch.

at night......5 1/4" bay covers are from a 386 IBM server

didn't stop there...I also modded hardware....P3 coolers on a voodoo 5500 AGP.

AT mod......yes.....baby AT form factor....now houses a P3 1ghz and 6 73gb Ultra 320 SCSI disks and video is a 3dfx Voodoo 4500 PCI. Old skool ride. To date this is one of my favorite cases because it is half as tall as I am and I can fit my entire head in it with the door open.

btw update later tonight.
