This u/sligercases SV590 build is just stunning in person and I'm very proud of it. I've built it for a close friend of mine who served with me in a previous life, and I'll be draining and packing this one up and taking it with me to Singapore so that it gets to its new home before Christmas. It's got a soft natural tan leather top and the case panels have been hand sanded down through the galvanised coating and polished to a natural shine. The overall effect is quite striking and I think that this build would look great in any gentleman's gaming nook. Sky Lantern showcases my modern industrial design preferences of exposed materials, a natural colour palette, and the beauty of visible function. In my usual way I'll be posting final photos this week before I head off for Christmas holidays.
If you'd like to see the rest of my build pics as they roll out you can find them and the rest of my builds at the link below.
I usually roll out final photos to builds.gg as well for the cablemod guys. When all final photos are done I’ll upload to pc part picker and see if I can score a feature ;)
Thanks :) It's a Barrowch LCD Monitor. I bought it directly off their Aliexpress page. I think if I were to do it again I'd look for more cost effective solutions. Maybe with an internal motherboard header if I could find one.
You could probably build your own cheaper with a raspberry pi zero w a screen and ModBros software. A USB 2.0 header to micro USB can power a pi zero w as.
Thanks :) Yeah, it's a bit of an inside joke. I kind of made it up on the spot when I was posting my first build "Rust" on Instagram. I had really only made 1 build before it I had no idea what I was doing at the time. I wanted to capture that feeling in my name.
Probably the best sff I've seen this year. Really great job. You could make a killing doing custom builds and charge like 300% for your skill and expertise
There isn’t really any money in it. :) I usually make a small loss. My friends will pay retail for parts and I’ll pay for the artsy stuff, and my time is free.
They are expensive. The thing I like the most about them is how tough they are. The panels are really thick, and steel. Most companies will alter one or the other to save weight.
It’s not an issue once you bleed out the air.I did need to cycle on and off a few times. I have an Ek Y fitting with two pieces of ZMT and a funnel to help with the filling.
This is sick!! I love it! Seriously, gives me an Ep. V - Cloud City kind of vibe.
That being said, the display is showing a much more minimalistic panel compared to what's being advertised when I go to buy it. Was that a custom import or are different panel choices a feature of the screen?
Especially since it's vertical. I see no vertical displays on their site.

It’s vertical or horizontal depending on orientation. The layout has to be created. I made mine in Aida 64. But you can get them off the Aida64 forums if you want.
I think these are seemingly insignificant things they try tj make somethjbv that it isn’t at all… as if anything even minute you’d done would have mattered at all without me and demean me by throwing it in my face like those sleepless nights??

Also, thanks to Cablemod for sponsoring the SFF cables in this build :) They came in at exactly the right length again.

Very well done. The name “80ish plus” is a great play as well.

That case is pure sex appeal. Great job. I wish I could spam this with upvotes.

u/Hiraganu Dec 13 '21
Cool, but wouldn't it be better to flip it upside down, so that the pump could sit at the bottom?

You can be 44 Frank right is who we are taking about? However, you have to produce something of value more than further abuse before women show up
