I tried some of that engine enamel.. Ho boy. That black is looking cool. Might have to grab some that too. Liking the green LEDs too.

The fan controller came stock with Blue leds I switched them out for the green like i did on the purple people eater project that is yet to be completely finished.

fair warning when using the engine enamel take your time spraying and dont let the paint get cold. or you will end up with a charcoal color.

diamond plate vinyl is looking good!
i love the colors.

thanks agro,

Still have a lot to do. but i cant release the info till i post the pictures.

Lookin good as always Ric, I'll be closely following this one, green + black are my favorite colors.

Thanks X, Due to the rain today i was unable to finish the painting i need to do. but i took some pictures of what the top panel will look like.







The panel is made of 1/4in thick acrylic that is Black the sides have been beveled to a 45º angle, the fan is a Pana-flow 120x38mm NMB-MAT, with the green painted kikboxes single 120mm fan grill on top of the and in between the fan and the bottom of the acrylic I have painted matte black some honey comb mesh

Looking good Ric,like the colours and the vinyl looks good

Yeah I have the same fan controller.

Thanks for the tips with the paint. Thought I fear it may be too late. I might have to sand it down and try again. I let it sit outside overnight and it wasn't terribly cold, but we'll see. Seems ok so far. Thanks again, Ric.

Small Update time. I did most light and panel fittings. I started painting the side and top panels Friday. got 5 coats of color on them and then put 4 coats of matte clear on them today. and handle them with care. out of the 4 digital cameras i have in this house Both have dead batteries its killing me so the pictures are far and few.

But here is a nice light coat of self etching primer





these are the top and two side panels.

I didnt get any pictures with the color on but here is the uv lighting going blitzkrig ...






as soon as i can get some hardware in and do some fitting I can work on getting the other mods planned for this project.

Very nice.

Question for you:

Does the self etching primer have the same effect on Plastic?

No i use a plastic primer for the flexibility, The one i use only cause Mattos doesnt carry any actually rattle can in the brand i like to use is i get it at home depot Rust-o-leom White / Gray plastic primer.

ok here are a few updated pictures.

I really wanted to use some of the Diamond plate film that Bill so graciously sponsored on this Build that. I put it to pretty good use.
Thank you again Bill.

but the fan controller had a issue so after finding the problem i resolved it ...

anyway here are the finished pictures of the fan controller.






and an added picture of the side panel. and wow my bench is in dire need of cleaning.

Dude, thats pretty darn cool. I'm still amazed at the thought of you fitting 2 12" cathodes in a case that small!

its a total of 4 , 2 sets of 2.

Ric can do whatever he wants. The end. More wonderful work there, buddy. Great to watch!
