Looking good! Shame some of your shots are out of focus.

[JuvUK]

yeah i know, sorry but i have to take it apart again this weekend so i'll try and take some better snaps then :)

[tonyyeb]

Good idea. We love hard pr0n on here! Particulary in focus pr0n!

Very nice! I like the fan on the PSU.

The keyboard is from an CDTV unit?

[Fingerlickin_B]

Hmm, very nice! :great

Matty B would love to plug away on that!

@ xpect
yes it is a CDTV keyboard, just the keys swapped over

i like the psu, it annoyed me plugging in a biege psu to a black 1200 :) it's also a 110 watt modded psu (credit again to Zetr0)

[Shoonay]

Hawt stuff! :great

He looks like Darth Vader.

Darth Vader would strangle people by using the force in order to own a black A1200 :cool

@ Fingerlickin
rofl ok, ok i get it now:D

[Phantomz]

Looks good :great

It's given me some idea how mine will look when I get round to spraying it.

Unlike you, I'm not going to install a CD/DVD inside as I don't think there is really much need these days, I just use the CF PCMCIA for file transfer.

I do like how you've installed the internal CF so that it can be removed without opening the case, I may do this myself but not keen on cutting the case, will think about that :nervous

I have however drilled holes in the trapdoor like yourself for my Blizzard 1260 and increased the amigas height with double rubber feet for airflow :)

Anyway, nice Amiga :cool

thx for the kind words, cutting the case wasn't so bad, and i just wanted tto do it so i could swap between different os versions without opening the case, as for the dvd drive i wanted that in there just to access some old cd's i have and it's kinda nice booting the cd32 discs from it ;o)
cheers all JuvUK

[Phantomz]

I decided to cut the case after all, well only for the CF Adaptor, will get an external CD Drive maybe for it later as I want the room inside the amiga as I'm thinking about getting an Indivision AGA Flickerfixer at a later date ;)

I liked the idea of being able to remove the CF without opening the amiga but wasn't to keen on it sticking out the side, so I've situated it so that it will hardly show when I spray my amiga black and I can still get hold of it with my finger nails to remove ;)

Sorry about the Focus, using an old camera phone, should get the idea tho ;)

[JuvUK]

I like the idea of the cf card above the pcmcia slot very cool m8:cool

cheers, not my idea though, noticed someone else on here had done the mod so thought I'd do the same :great

[NastyFreddy]

Nice clean mod... back in black!!!

I just wonder how you will "fix" the badge... A white badge on a black Amiga will not match, I'm afraid.

i have a friend that is a screenprinter and he is making me some one off brushed ali stickers one for the top will say A1200 060
and the one underneath will be a surprise ;o)

True :bash, but its a small price to pay. A nice powered black amiga 1200 setup looks cool and you have the added bonus of not looking for signs of yellowing :D
