Still waiting on the cob but I've got on with the job these past few night and prepped every thing ready for when they arrive. All drilled and filed it just need cleaning and wiring.
Rounded the corners of the sheet aluminum to fit with the mars design
.
drilled out the corner of the heat sinks
Marked out where the heat sink are to go, drilled the holes then marked out the 4 corner holes on the case and drilled them.
attached the heat sinks, filed and tidied up the corners and made sure the edge are flush with sheet aluminum.
Just for the look of it and to tidy the ends of the heat sinks I used some left over L shape aluminum from my last project.
Marked out where the cobs are to go...the line is the closest gap in the heat sink to it center.
Tapped the holders for the cobs. Drilled all the holes for the wires and placed 3mm gromits in. And i also added 2 more bolts for each of the heat sinks in there middle.
drilled holes in the case for the wires.
That's it for now, so close to lift off...
