Mahogany/Steel Computerdesk

Hello dear readers,

First off I failed and posted this on the wrong forum thread. Im sorry linus!

This build has been on sweclockers.com a while but I felt like I had to reach a bigger audience so here goes. 

A bit over a year ago I started with my first major modding/custom project. The idea here is to make a seriously hardcore hardwood and steel computertable which looks effortless yet elegant. You'll be the judge of the result but let's get started shall we.

Parts:

CPU:    I7-5960x

GPU's: 3xgtx something (depending on what I can get my hands on when I install the parts)

MoBo:  Rampage 5 extreme

RAM: Dominator platinum 32 gb

PSU: Corsair ax1500i

Storage: 16 TB hdd space with 5 ssd. 1 with os and 4 in raid 1.

Watercooling:

Dual loops

Radiators: 2x monstah 560 superthick rads, 1x alphacool 360 60mm thick rad, 1x 140mm 60 mm thick rad All in push pull.

Pumps: 2x d5 vario with ek clear plexi top. Pvm controlled.

Reservoir: Custom dual loop

Fittings: too many to count (might do a list later)

Tubing: Ionized copper and hardbent acrylic tubing.

Extras: 6 temp meters loop flow indicators etc.

Fans: 24 Noiseblocker pk2s.

Fan controller: Lamptron fc something with them circuit bords to connect 1 radiator per knob + 1 knob for each waterpump.

Frame and build:

20mm thick quadratic steel with 3 mm plate steel. 

Wood is a mixture of birch and mahogany.

Sponsors:

None so far. 

Started off welding a basic frame to get ideas flowing. 

 

Psu Mount. Worth adding is that I need to add rubber between all "moving" parts so the psu and pumps are therefor not welded to the frame but have separate supports where so I can soundproof them better. Again soundproofing parts with a 20dB output is a bit excessive but might as well.

 

 

And to the woodwork then. It's in its infant stage but what I did here is a guy helped me glue birch together and then drag it through a machine I dont know the name of. What I need to do is make them into the round nice wingshapes im looking for. I'm looking at a solid 200 hours of sanding and polishing here but:D

 

This is the wood for the front panel and the short sides. Dimensions for the table btw is 1650x780x190.

 

 

Hi again, still working with the wood but here's my new atx tray. 

The caselabs sm8 something

 

 

So I've been working on the profiled wood. This longer than expected and I still have a lot of sanding to do but I feel like sharing the results. 

 

This is 2 out of 3 panels. The longer one being the front and obviously I need to cut holes for the fans and whatnot but it's getting there.

 

Here's some pictures of the upcoming reservoir. Sorry for the lack of updates but I've been very busy. 

Anyways the reservoir is a dual loop idea where it feeds and takes from the same res even though it's 2 separate loops and pumps.

Started to get the legs done for the table and lathing the mountjoints for the triple screen setup. Loving it

Some lathing for the lathers

And the table is ALIVE with legs. There's some angle grinding and polishing to do but it's getting there.

Next update after christmas!
