Gigabyte 3D Aurora Project - Update 7

DSC05640

Bought some steel mesh from Sir Cham. Thanks!

I've done a lot of modding to the case but I'll post pictures later on. As of now, I can show you what I did to bend some mesh to the shape of the blue plastic thingie the Aurora has in front. I already did this with the old mesh but it was too thin and didn't offer any strength.

I marked out an estimated size.

Clamped then cut.

Found a 90 degree angle and pushed really hard. This thing is tough!

Chose a suitable surface for the rounded part.

Looks pretty close.

After some more cutting and filing, I got it to fit snug. More on that later.
