EKS Otus in a box
Posted on: 01.04.2009 by Dagny Borysewicz
Hello,
I'm a bit new here. I bought an EKS Otus some time ago and made a Case for it. It is not ready yet but the most parts are finished.
Here are some pictures:
This needed a case

Some action pictures


Everything is operational


what do you guys believe about it?

[Update]
The Paint work is ready.
Still waiting on some fans to get a better air flow and a wireless usb adapter. Most of the work is done now.

Specs: Iiyama ProLite E1908WSV-1, 19" / AMD Athlon64 X2 4400+ / 2GB RAM /
500GB HDD / Terratec Aureon 5.1 PCI /
EKS Otus / Windows XP pro SP3 / Virtual DJ v5.2

As ready as it will ever be:

Added some LED light so i can see what keys i'm pressing, made one power connection with a on/off switch. I believe it is just how i want it now.

I'm painting it black. We have made aluminum on the corners of the top and the bottom.
As for the foam i'm still looking for some of it. Witch is at least 40cm X 45cm.

Well one does the trick and for 700 euro it is not cheap.

1) There are holes on the back for the PSU.
2) I use a towel now but is still need to buy some foam.
3) Somewhere around 20Kg i believe.
