((about 3 years ago))
So.. i had this really old AT case.. it was a GINORMOUS tower.. were talkin 6 5 1/4 bays tall. It seemed a waste to toss it since there was no mare AT mobos worth using.

Back before you could buy fans litup with LEDs You had to make your own!!!
So i took a 120mm fan i had drilled some holes in the sides wired up some leds and painted it white (so it would illuminate better).

not my best or my latest work but it was fun and i felt like i was doing a good deed of recycling by keeping yet another obsolete case out of a landfill somewhere

nice paintjob though and a pretty funky grill on the front case fan!

Yeah, pink is also not my favorite color, but the MOD itself is very impressing. Well done!!!

The paint job is good, the cuttings were accurate and I really liked that fan enclosure on top of the case. :lol:
