shiny, silver Amiga? not for me

DoogUK · 02 March 2009, 20:09

it's whats in it

cosmicfrog · 02 March 2009, 20:12

that mirror finish reminds me of a cyborg from battle star galatica

man it well tricked out, Nice

so whats the card to the left of the floppy drive with the black heat sink on and the cut out for the power conector ?

DoogUK · 02 March 2009, 20:14

Indivision aga by the look of it.

alexh · 02 March 2009, 20:33

I prefer BuZz's.

Pure Black + CDTV keyboard + BlizzardPPC + BVision + CF adapter + Custom cooling.

He doesn't have an Indivision though or an IDEFix Express...

cosmicfrog · 02 March 2009, 20:52

ok its to the right of the Indivision and the left of the floppy drive

DoogUK · 02 March 2009, 21:02

Blizzvision...rtg card for the PPC accelerator

Zetr0 · 02 March 2009, 22:56

Nice internal Kit indeed!

I have to admit though I like the black / chrome finish, although I would done some prep work to the top of the chassis, because theres pooling near the numeric keypad and around the raised power / hdd and fdd words (next to LED)

other than that its pretty smart, however I noticed theres no shot of its screwed together

Paul_s · 02 March 2009, 23:35

Its a fast and furious A1200

Not to my taste, although no denying the build quality... nice internal kit too... bet it's noisy with all those daft fans.

Shoonay · 02 March 2009, 23:37

Nice, clean, sexy.

It's a shame that looking from the bottom it looks like the fat lady Al Bundy keeps talking about

Damn, those "legs" are freaking HUGE!

r0jaws · 03 March 2009, 00:02

Its a damn shame, considering the effort that has obviously gone into this build, that he's used a molex connector on the side to power the Miggy/ the CDRom.
A Nice internal PICO PSU Mod squeezed in somewhere would have been the shiny icing on the cake.
Other than that, a very nice neat mod, lovely fat cankles!

Supamax · 03 March 2009, 00:28

I wonder how did it paint it that way? It doesn't look spray-painted at all (no silver paint has this clean, professional effect). It looks like it was "chromed" with some kind of chemical procedure, similar to the one used for some plastic (or even metal) models.

To start a project like this you need one of these...

Was kind of wondering the same thing...
...Project 'Pimp my A1200' has been left for months in an unfinished state for the lack of a good gold finish to go with the pink snake-skin keyboard surround - I kid you not!

Nice plug Peter

seuden · 03 March 2009, 12:02

I think it's friggin awesome, the only thing I don't like is the fact that it's raised with those horrible feet, eeww.

/me wants an A1200

Akira · 03 March 2009, 15:43

The more I see this the more I find it horrible.
I missed the stands under the Amiga to lift it, the wobbly feel of the silver coating and the fact that the machine doesn't even shut its case tight.

It's horrendous. I've seen so much better here, certainly Buzz's machine looks much better.

Hurrah Brother · 03 March 2009, 19:18

Well, that is one way of dealing with case yellowing, chrome plate the blessed thing!
