all those questions ;)
1. I dont have a scale here but I'm guessing somewhere between 12 and 15 kg. (25 - 30 pounds)
2. the dimensions are in the logs, but I'll give them again ;) : its 274 x 274 mm (10.78 inch x 10.78 inch)
3. because of the sleeving with the washers its almost impossible to knock them off. The wires of the original fans where actually really fragile. But the sleeving made it pretty strong. I think I can hang the case on the 4 tubes, but I'm not gonna try that ;)
HI there!
I just registered to say this is one of the most interesting things I've found on internet ever. YOU ROCK!
One remark maybe from the mechanical-engineer part of me:
The stand! Said you made that from aluminium and from the photos one can see from a quit thin aluminium. I would consider somehow heat-treating (sorry, don't know the proper english-word) the bends, especially the bottom one, as this one holds the whole weght. I suppose you know that Al is not so persistant as steel, so some heat-treating would remove the inner tension (and there must be quite a big one there) and the stand as a whole would last longer.
Besides this, I admire your work! Even my g/f says it is awesome :D
But what abour the noise, if there is any noise. How fast are the fans and how silent is the whole case? Did you thought about the noise while planing it?

well its not the most silent case I know. But its definately not loud. The fans can turn at half the speed almost all the time, and then its as silent as a normal ATX case.
well, im shocked, ive seen loads of mods on this site, some good some bad, "one" truly awesome; yours. Ive gotta say, it is by far the best pc mod i have ever seen in my entire life, also, could someone help me pick my jaw off t3h floor?
amazing work dude, seriously im speachless to it you have my utter most respect

Is this where you tell us all its a photo-chop image?
You said thats a 12. some thing touch screen? I would be vary interested in knowing how much it costs and from where you got it. If you know of one like that that is 8-10 inches (with our with out touch screen) that would be super awsom.
I don't think I would have the patience for anything that comp-licated. I loved the way you did the cables coming of the fans and your solution for power connectors. Your sleeving also was inspiring. You keep on claiming "I am not a good tech" you are a good tech! especially after doing a project like that.

Hi! Congratulations for your work!! I know you been working with 3d Max for 10 years..but Im wondering if you could tell me about a soft that could be able to things like the maps and 3d examples you made for Hipercube...I want an easy one...but if its necesary to learn to use 3d max (even is not free and I think is dificulty, thats why im asking you if you know of a soft that could reach that features for 3d models but easier (and free BEST) tthank youu :)...

One question: How much did the case cost in materials? (Excluding the pc hardware.)
Okay, two questions. How many hours are in this build?
1. That is something I will keep for myself. Sorry but that is confidential
2. I guess about 600 - 800 working hours

I like the LCD-Screen very much...looks fantastic!!!!!
;) ;)
You did a very very nice job man !!
Only one question ?!
What kind of plexiglass is it ?
http://elmo.bit-tech.net/~hypercube/gallery/26.jpg
It is not clear but we can see a little bit trough them with your white leds !
Do you know the real name of it ?
i've started using 3ds max at uni recently - i can see i have a long way to go!
I am sure that your project will now influence quite a few modders.
I already am eyeing my naked LCD, it needs a cool case.
But what abour the noise, if there is any noise. How fast are the fans and how silent is the whole case? Did you thought about the noise while planing it?
