Chrome plug wire separators are normally for use on hot rod engines to separate the spark plug wires.

Here they serve to tidy up some of my wiring and add a nice touch at the same time.


PSU Bracket Bolts

I finally got around to trimming the stainless steel bolts supporting the PSU bracket. Changed the wing nuts for tastier dome nuts.


Drive Cage \'Trimming\'

I decided that the hanging down part of my drive cage had to go. I had cut out a section of it earlier to allow me to mount my radiator sideways but the remaining part of it was going to prevent me from removing my Hard Drive rack should I need to change out a drive at any stage.

Clamped and prepped - like this as it would have taken days to take the whole lot apart. And cut off with a dremel.

Filed and sanded and polished with the corner rounded. It doesn\'t look too bad at all and will make life a whole lot easier in the future.

More attention to detail stuff - Stainless steel M3x12mm socket head cap screws hold all the drives in place. These were polished with a buffing wheel and had two washers added (as I didn\'t have a large enough washer with a small enough hole) followed by a rubber washer made from a cut-up grommet. A little bit of anti-vibration protection and nice looks as well. It all fits in with the theme...
