I cut my window at last:)
Title says it really. Here is a pic for anyone that is interested.
![]() Sorry about the poor picture quality but i only have a cheapo webcam. It's not finished by a long shot yet as I intend to fit probably 2 fans and, if possible, make a reservoir out of it too. As in the window being one side of the reservoir. |

That looks awesome!
While on a topic of windows, I need advice. What do you use to cut the metal so perfectly? And do you use plexiglass or....? Thanks! Last edited by Mictlantecuhtli; 01-04-2007 at 12:08 PM.. |

I used a jigsaw with a fine blade as it was aluminium to cut the metal and the clear acrylic. That pic makes the cuts look a little better than they are but I'm very pleased with the result as it wont require very much sanding to get it looking perfect.
![]() If you have an aluminium case panel like me then get it as cold as you possibly can and it will cut easier. Also, use a fair bit of oil to keep the blade well lubricated. |

I just had an idea that i think could look very good.
I'm thinking of masking up a design on my window then spraying it with a very thin coat of white spray paint so that it is just visible then back-lighting it with my UV tube. Problem is, i have no idea what design. So any good suggestions would be greatly appreciated. |

Do the Biohazard symbol... I have that on the side window of my case and it looks great.

A nice idea as i have 2 biohazard fan grills, but i was hopimg to do something a little more original (no offense meant).
I guess im the kind of person that wants my pc to be unique really. Having said that, it is a good idea and i will certainly keep it in mind. Thanx MetalX. ![]() I'd love to see a pic or 2 of your case if you have any at hand.
