Some New Hardware
Sorry about the lack of updates everyone, it's not that I haven't been working on the desk much, but it's more that I've been using the camera a lot (You know.. kittens) and I haven't had time to sit down and sort through all the photos, re-size, crop, etc for some real proper updates.
I've had this update sitting on the back burner for a little while now and I've been meaning to squeeze in it somewhere. I had been talking with some folks at Danger Den because I was looking at their motherboard trays and I/O panels, and they've decided to sponsor me!
Big thanks go out to Danger Den, as these are critical components required for a professional end result - you've all seen the mangled results of the cases I tore up earlier in the project.
Let us help you be cool!
Everything came very nicely packed - not much loose play, and plenty of foam to absorb any shipping issues.
I had these PSU support brackets custom made:
I sent them a higher resolution image of this, that I threw together in Sketchup:
Also included in this little shipment were some momentary switches for power and reset. (These are really popular these days, aren't they?)
And some real nifty motherboard trays:
All the acrylic is 1/2" clear - I will leave them wrapped up until the project is close to completion. With these parts -finally- settled, I can cut some holes in the cabinets and actually put them together -for real- !!
Stay tuned, I'll sit down this weekend and sort through the next round of updates
