    Talking Thought I would share my first ever mods

    For you to laugh and poke fun at

    I was really proud of myself back when I did these but having just found the pics in a directory on my server, I do wonder how I convinced myself I could mod

    Side Vent and Front Blow Hole ?


    Home made Rheostat !


    just look at the skillful cabling into the rheostat box


    lol, bless

    But then we all have to start somewhere

    lol nice idea with the vent ,i bet u thought at the time it would enhance the cooling abilities of the case

    didnt u do any lighting mods with it ,i seem to remember that was the main reason ppl bought a p6 to light it up

    i still have my old juno p6 clogging up my room ,me thinks its time to mod it with me dremel (if i can make it look good maybe some 1 will want to buy it )

    Great first attempt ... the vent looks great, I like the squareness of it (lol) over the normal circular vents although what do you do about fans?

    My first modding attempt was kinda worse than that (the case is still used although its been resprayed since)!

    I think I did those mods a good 2 - 3 years ago now ! Its quite scarey as I think the HW that was in that case is now in my server

    Needless to say the Juno, vent and all, eventually ended up at the local dump ! I got really fed up with the huricane of a noise going on in there even with the rheobus !

    tbh, the reason I opted for a square vent was because it was easier to cut with a jigsaw :blush:

    The zip drive went as soon as I finished Uni, so back in 1999 ! It was a great way to move files to and from the lab, until they installed CDRWs in all the machines in our lab

    I agree, it's always better to be original, if everyone used the same style, nothing would look great,

    Keep up the theme and it'll make a top job
