Nice job! Just the self-awareness left to sort out.
Sadly, I think you've completely lost the "Orac effect" by building something far superior to the original crummy plastic box with a half dozen fairy lights. You're going to have to back off the quality control by a considerable margin to achieve that authentic 70's BBC special effects department look. :D
It's going to be so damned good it'll be a shame to have to put a motherboard in it. It'd be like putting a poo-smeared post-it note in the middle of the Mona Lisa.
this is, by far, the most inticate, detailed, complex, and wonderful computer case mod i've EVER seen... ! congrats on your project. i can't image the man-hours involved in this... whoa...
btw: i actually registered on this forum simply so i could post my appreciation of this mod. you should be proud... :)
I love the chrome and what you have done so far. Posted with great interest. The first instalment was great and looks set to be a new bench mark for modders to aim for.
CONSULT THE ORACLE
My favourate mod this month has to be the ORAC, created by G-gnome. Hailed by some as the new modding messiah, and his work is allready up for mod of the year, this is truly some exeptional work that you must see. After all, anything basedon the classic Brit sci-fi Blake's 7 has to be good, right?
Just found the bit-tech site and....oh my god...you have far too much time on you hands and that mad scientist brain of yours seems to have been effected by Borg nanoprobes...a most impressive modding experience for me. You have set the bar extremely high and we haven't even seen the finished article yet...
G-gnome, omg.....come on dude. When will it be done. Like it's taking years to put a mobo in and some water?. I want to see the end result. Not loads of people posting stuff. Come on dude i wanna see the end;)

This is where g-gnome magic stealthing is going to come in to play, I can't wait to see it finished.
I would like to know what keyboard, mouse monitor and speakers are going to be used (Some nice beige ones )

mmmm shinny
thats some proper good engineering there, wish i had some space at home for some decent tools and working area, could then try some mods like that.
very nice, looking forward to see it with all the components in.
its like a sort of 70's sci fi squidy (matrix) Hybrid, very good
Can't wait until the next installments ;)
Is the article going to be seperated into many bits like the project log, or one bit mondo article?

Similar to the logs but I'll be reorganising images and text and combining updates together etc.
The next installment has been written and should be out soon ;)
Cheers for the comments!

I would like to see that in real life.

PS G-gnome, what did you think of my monitor and speaker suggestions in your project log http://forums.bit-tech.net/showpost.php?p=508075&postcount=1209
Has the author estimated the cost of such a case?
