Custom Systems

Filed under: Technical — admin @ 4:22 pm

I design and build custom systems, and have done so since 1994, when I bought my first 286 computer.  Back then, I bought some Krylon paint and painted my case long before there was such a thing as a case mod.  I wish I still had some of the photos I’ve taken of some of the systems I’ve designed over the years, but I’ve only put together a handful of case mods worth posting.  Here are some photos I don’t want to lose, so here goes:
