HCC - Hybrid Concept Case [DJB] (finished) final pictures and concept explanation

Thanks to all

benny : yes and no , it suposed to be just a model , but im running out of time in a tourneament ao I will use the MDF as part of the mod.

In the next updates I will explain the concept of this mod to make things clear

Update

The model was open like an easter egg , to work on it and to put the aluminium chasis inside.
Some pictures of the cuts fot the hardware .

Mothertray window

Optical drives and HDD Rack

Wide view

Fan holes

Other point od view to show the hole for the PSU fan

Acordin to the concept of the One-unit of the mod , I will not use grills , I will made it in the main body of the mod

Front grill

Draw of the otical drives holes

Grill on top done

Front holes and grills done

PSU window + I/O panel + expansion card

I will made a toolless-like system to fix in position the optical drives , front panel and HDD Rack , holes for that

Frontal image

Holes for the cable management , very important to the functionality of the mod

Now is time to close the coffin again , but with the aluminium chasis inside

The gap that remains is because the measures was for fiberglass , not for 3mm MDF , let's work on it

Some accesories and acrylic side panel

Next the final pictures

Thank Benny !!! mmmmm , chocolate :-d

The main concept of this project was made a scratch build mod with all the basics of modding (big side window , front and bottom blowhole , rear and top fan's extracting hot air) , but introducing a new concept of build and functionality (new at least for me)
This case is a concept prototype of hibrid chassis , made of aluminium and fiberglass (aluminium and MDF in this beta version) , where there is just one modular unit , the only removable piece is the acrylic side panel and 2 fan covers (no front cover , no top cover , no side panels)

The main challenge with this proyect was the planificacion to make this functionality work , for that I include extractable pieces (HDD rack , mothertray , front control panel) , and a routing system for the cable management to make it reach all the case

This is the 3d-render that I made as a model in the beginning

Here the final pictures of the job done , I hope you like it

PD : I notice that the reaf fan is in the wrong position after the photo session , , I already turn it to the rigth position

Thx

Too many people tell me that I must paint the dvd drive , I will think about it , but I like it white as the rest of the details of the mod.
Next step , reproduce it in fiber glass and white sleeving , the visible parts of the aluminium chassis , the dvd rack and the mothertray must be painted in white too.

I keep all the mod red without stripes and drawings because I running out of time in a tournament and I don't want the typical ' 2 white stripes dodge viper style' , I want something different.
