Whacking the Cosmos

erocker · Mar 17, 2008

Looking really good man! Thanks for sharing your builds with us! :toast:

philbrown23 · Mar 17, 2008

sweet!! I'll be buying a cm cosmos and now I have an Idea how it will look, I'll have my 360 rad on bottom and my 240 rad in the top shroud with modders mesh instead of the fan filter but I was not awar the whole case comes apart like that! Awesome can't wait to see it finished!!

CyberDruid · Mar 17, 2008

Yeah the more I look at it the more I am going to have to mesh the topsection there...that little trapezoidal detent...

It's a neat case as is...

The bayside where the Raptor X are going will get a panel of painted acrylic to basically conceal the area and frame the drives...I just want to show the interesting part.
I may make a panel for the floor to to hide the mesh and so forth...there's a lot that needs to gel....

I cant wait to see the hoses, lol...looking forward to the updates.

Frogger · Mar 17, 2008

Dam this has the looks of being a fine finished product .......the plumbing work will be a pleasure to have a look @ for sure ...diff colour dry to highlight the loops????

jbunch07 · Mar 17, 2008

looks great so far!
cant wait to see finished product! : )

CyberDruid · Mar 17, 2008

Thanks guys. Yeah I had to hit the ground running on this one...it's going to be complex.

thoughtdisorder · Mar 17, 2008

Excellent! Very nice job you're doing and very thorough! Most of all, excellent job of explaining what you are doing each step of the way. Most of the folks that view this site are not members and not as skilled as we all are at building rigs. Your explanations and pics make it understandable to even the layman out there. Nice job! Keep us updated!

Btw, thx was a necessity for your post as it was so informative! :toast:

:rockout:

freaksavior · Mar 17, 2008

I was wondering how you got the holes cut so well. Im not sure if you said it or not but i got a case im half working on and don't want to spend $40 for a hole saw and need a good way which will make the holes actually round.

I would say hole saw

freaksavior · Mar 17, 2008

i just don't want to pay $40 for it when its going to get used 2 times. i wish i knew someone who had one that i could borrow.

edit: Oh and props man, looks awesome so far.

Btw, Freaksavior, I Love your avatar, Kramer is da man! :toast:

CyberDruid · Mar 17, 2008

I used a hole saw this time but as intel igent points out a CD a sharpie and a jigsaw are the way to go.

Thanks guys...you make me feel right welcome

Cosmos 1000 New and Improved

Just came back from AFK...RAD positions are clever and Spot On CD...can't wait to see tubing routes...waddaya think about paint colors guys...internal will be matte black...leaning towards the black/red family; shows off lighting best IMO...
Thank You so much for taking this build CD...guys, this man is the best in the BIZ! :toast:

Megasty · Mar 22, 2008

Wow, this is making my cosmos look so plain. I'm getting more & more ideas by the second. I must resist killing it, but I'll wait & see how yours turn out b4 cutting it :cool:

TheMailMan78 · Mar 22, 2008
