Doesn’t look like much left, but will take atleast 10-15 more triangles to close the holes and finish part one of the shroud. This will look dope in black once finished. Love how the different angles play with the light. Somehow this makes me feel about the catamaran. 5mm to spare to the bottom of the plexi top. Very close, but managed to avoid building to high in the front. Love the contrast look of the hard edges of the triangles with the smooth roundness of the beautiful EK Water Block D5 Plexi top. Will need to wait longer for this to set before I move it. Want to create a front base plate to display the amazing sponsors of the build.ĩ additional triangles and a romb later and the front logo plate is joined with the base plate for the pumps. Need to ensure that the height of the front triangles stay below the lower edge of the Plexi top of the pumps. Started fixating triangles on my way to the front of the case. Very time consuming, but rewarding mod creating this PSU shroud. Lot’s of hours spent already and only 19 triangles created. I cut a plate to sit below the radiator and took a measurement where to mount it on the base pump plate. On the contrary I keep adding Acrifix on the backside of each joint to strengthen the bond. As I’m going to paint it black, I don’t care about getting Acrifix 116 on the pieces. Fixating it with Acrifix 116, wait until it sets (about 5-10min) and start on next.Ĩ triangles and a few hours later and the base shape starts to reveal itself. After sawing each triangle into it’s designated shape, I grind each edge straight and proper angled to build the shape. Here is a shot of the angled edge of the third triangle. Each edge needs it’s own individual angle to ensure the right shape of the shroud.Įnsuring as versatile visuals as possible I try to alterate the size of each triangle as well. With the use of Acrifix 116 I fixed 2 triangles on the pump base plate. That is also part of the charm of this build. It will be an immense amount of work to finish the custom PSU shroud with its 118 individual angled acrylic pieces.
