Thanks guys. I've got a strange boot problem.
While working on Revelation, I have to keep it upside down due to the construction. Everything works fine upside down. But as soon as I flip it around, I cant get it to boot. I get the classic start up with everything's running for 5 secs, no display, then reboots, over and over again. What could be the issue here?
I have no ideas, at all. Something is triggered when I flip the computer around I guess, but what? So strange, because everything seems to be in place. I'm desperate, and open for any guesses right now.

Make sure you aren't somehow shorting the power button circuit. If you are, it will do exactly what you describe.

Yeah, I'm ggoing to look into it more tomorrow. But why would it short only when the chassis is turned upside down. There's no pressure on the power cable or anything. Well, will look into it tomorrow. Thanks!

The issue is sorted out, finally. It was one of the RAM sticks actually. During first leak test I must've been sloppy, and a single drop of fluid got into the RAM connectors.
Got new sticks now, and I'm back on track. I can finally finish this beast...
I made a refill using the new fillport on top.
And then I made a backplate in stained ply for final touch.
Final pictures coming up next!!

The magnificent machine! I imagine archeologists uncovering this in a dig a thousand years from now interpreting its purpose.....
