Decased and mounted the Motherboard and Hard drive this weekend.  I am noticing I will need some ventilation.  I am thinking about using a 3 inch hole saw to cut a hole in the bottom of the cab and re-using the computer fan and fan scoop to point it towards the mother board and heat sink area.



I am also looking for a way to plug this thing in with a regular D-cable (three prong computer cable)  I have seen some people have some solutions here but I forgot what it is called to be able to search for this.

I don't want to just drill a hold and snake a cable through.  I kinda want it to look nice seeing it is coming out a lot better than my wife had thought (she had no faith in me)

TopJimmyCooks:
search for "iec 320 socket", or do what I did and take one out of a broken LCD.

Just wondering if you ever finished this cocktail table?  I was reading your build page and it seemed to stop half way through...

Thanks for your interest.  I haven't finished it yet.    I left it at wiring up the controls and the ipac.    It is in my living room being used as a cocktail table with out he video game playing part :-[

My phone with all my photos got messed up  but you have inspired me today to try to get it to work and get the photos off it.

I am asshamed of myself for not finishing it but I can right this.  (wow this sounds like a speach from brave heard  ;D )
