Project:MechClaw {Scratch Pc Case Build Log}

[CorsarioJoao]

Hello people,this is going to be my next scratch pc case build log.
It will ,hopefully, end up being a sff/itx case linking pc modding with metal art(not the music gerne) 😛
P.S: it is going to have wings 😉

{Update 1}
So today after the arrival of some parts i needed, like screws and standoffs, i decided to build a mini-itx mb tray.I will use some new aluminum sheets i haven't work with before for the build so it would be a nice way to test them.After some cutting and drilling i am satisfied with the shape,the final test is to brush the aluminum tray to check if it looks good.So here is the tray(the brushing isnt finished cause i will be handling the part way to much) and you can somehow see how the finished tray will look!Hope you like it and if you dont plz let me know!

Stay tuned for more!!

Hello again everybody 😄 Today i decided to do some sketches before i move on with the rest of the build.I don't have any of the hardware i will be using yet so it is vital to have something to follow when it comes to dimensions!Some hours later i came up with the general positioning of the parts.Next to come is the housing of the GPU and the frame of the case !So stay tuned for more 😄 (so the sketches are just to position the pc parts and have nothing do to with the aesthetics/visuals of the case).

Looking good OP,
Just out of curiosity: did you think of the weight of the bird while designing it? Like, won't it tip over?

Looking forward to more of this!

Perhaps if the bird was in more of a crouching position as if ready to launch it might be more balanced.

Nice observation there!Yes the weight of the bird is bit one-sided but the plan is to have the psu sit in a base of its own!The build is going to progress fast in the holiday season,so you will see how i will balance it!Thanks for your interest! 😄

A little update on the main frame work. 😉 The Motherboard and GPU placing looks to work as planed!More will come soon 😄
