/diy/ - Do It Yourself

whatever you do is going to wind up looking like shit

I only care about function, jogger

>>1935723
took me 1 search on "speaker mesh" to find it. You suck OP.

>>1935938
then just bolt your motherboard to a piece of wood and bolt the fans to that too
>i only care about function
said the faggot who wants to put a cuck window into his case

>>1935723
Double sided tape will be stronger than glue.

>>1935908
The cut edge can be hidden with u-channel trim specifically for case modding so it might not look horrible as long as OP can cut relatively straight.

>>1936027
that would impede function
>cuck window
its for airflow you brainlet, not RGBT lighting

>>1936032
how would bolting shit to a block of wood and just letting it sit out in the open "impede function"
they even make "cases" like this

>>1935723
you're a dumb monkey and this is going to look like a dumb monkey fucked it up

>>1935723
Just keep one side of the case open and put that side panel up your widely stretched anus. Fuckung mingoloids. Buying pc cases from corsair with side window: OnLY aBoUt fUNctIOn

Dust will fuck your shit up right quick. Plus noise.

Those open air setups aren't very practical.

>>1935723
Will have no impact on your setup senpai

check benchmarks of meshify C/P400A/lancool II mesh etc to see how much an open front does

>>1935908
look at this job I did, cutting holes into the front of my InWin303 case. Looks stock, you can't tell unless you really get up close.

OP, a rectangle cut would be easy as long as you take your time cutting and filing down those edges

i could see in the thumbnail that it looked like a blind person tried to cut a hole

>>1935723
how about you get a normal case for the same money it will cost you to get tools, supplies and mesh to do what you wanted
also it will look like shit
also you will still need to take the components out because your PC will be filled with fine metal dust otherwise

>>1937310
I have everything from a soldering station to a cement mixer
>metal dust
pretty sure thats ABS

When did /diy/ turn into such a fucking salt mine, holy fuck buckets you fellas need to give your balls a tug.

>>1937295

Yeah mate, nah mate. That looks like Rat Charles tried cutting those holes.

There's jigs and hole saws out there cheap that would give you a clean cut unlike what's pictured.

>>1937295
looks like a blind nigger did it with a screwdriver

this is /diy/, not /nigger-rig-it-yourself/

my sides
nice bait
and nice fucking butchering, mongoloid

do you think I fuckin care how niggerly my pc case looks? I got mad airflow in this bitch and It took me less than 10 minutes with a burnt-out reciprocating saw and a pencil

>>1938650
Id use one of these the next time if you have access to one

>>1938654
Meh. Those can be pretty shitty too.

>>1935723

>>1939057
checked those and speaker grills, but unfortunately nothing in the right size available to order
might have to hit up bauhaus or similar after all

>>1938654

>hand slips in you're path

Look for Hjälpa on ikea, it's a shoeshelf, perforated.

I'm currently doing a meshed front for my pc case as well, just waiting on another delivery.

Finding perforated metal at the right size is strangely difficult, but ikea saved me.

thanks it looks breddy gud, ill check it in person

>>1942305
I finished cutting it out for my case, it worked great.
You can use a regular hacksaw, just put it on a table with a cloth/something to asborb the vibrations in between and clamp it down. It will save your ears.

>>1944277
nice job breh
might get 2 and spray paint one to be black and see how it turns out

They make magnetic replacement mesh now, its cheap. It should look fine if you cut the holes small enough to have their edges concealed by the magnetic strip portion of the filter mesh.

Is the case steel or aluminum?

>>1944277
Oh shit I'm too late, looks good though, nice work

>>1935723
A decent brand double sided tape is much better than hot glue for gluing flat things to flat things. It's strong as fuck. There are better things than glue though.

>>1944461
>>1944469
Thanks. Though since your area is smaller it might be worth checking out those already existing magnetic filters. This case had one and it'd be great if it could cover the entire front of mine.

>>1944470
I'm not OP.
Thanks though!

You must not take showers often if dust builds up like that. 99% of dust is dead skin cells that flaked off , and showering daily scrapes them off before they fall off.
