Sorry for the lag, lots going on here :( Been crazy busy and yesterday it rained so no cutting wood outside *sigh

Anyway, decided to take care of bench rig first.

All I have left to do is take it out of the case and swap it onto the bench rack and MAYBE screw in 4 bolts to hold the top on nice and square. Will do this in a few minutes when I finish my lunch

Quick job took about 75 minutes, and stupid me trusted the cheap ass table saw for measurement and straight cuts, so top and bottom are just a smidgen off as you can see in the second pic. Thumbnails for photobucket for full 1MB pics, not really necessary I suppose though

Have not decided on whether to just use a piece of pipe strap for the card bracket, or was thinking of two metal rods or straps that "pinch the top of the expansion bracket. Not really needed until I go with some type of 3rd party cooling on the card though I suppose

IF this was something I was going to invest anytime I would probably sand and stain/poly it. And I may do that at another time, but not right now.
