Xbox 360 Explosion Mod
« on: January 16, 2013, 11:29:56 AM »
Hi guys, this is proly my last 360 Console mod, and it's just for myself... :P

not trying anything way over my head, just gna focus on cooling and the looks, I put a lot of time in so far.

My plans For the xbox
> Orange "Rusted" paint job, scratch marks etc.
> "danger Explosives" Cut out on the right side
> Some vinyl paint job one the left side, with my "Mod Shop" Logo Name..
> LCD Temp meter on faceplate + 3 way fan controller
> Custom Stainless steel on/off switch replace original
> Ipod Dock on top infront of HDD, with the 2 USb ports moved there too.
> Talismoon whisper fans replace Stock OEM
> 2 ekstra 60mm fans next to the CPU Heatsink
> Got some other ideas floating around, not sure of yet, but the top listed is defenately happening...

16 Januarie 2013 : This is the two side shells, last 3 days work
Explosives sign rough cut out (P.S this is proly the most detailed cut out ife done, so im pretty proad of it)


Cleaned out a bit:


Completely filed and ready for paint job:


Left Shell, can't really explain the idea here.

My first try at cutting out lettering:


Decided to make it a window instead :P


Cleaned:


Paint Job: (P.S this is hand cut vinyl, from sticker paper, so bear with me... lol)


It looks white, its actually orange


Faceplate : So far i'fe mounted the 3 way fan controller


I'll keep u guys updated

Sounds like a cool theme, I like the idea for an Ipod dock.

UPDATE: :winker:

So whats New in this update? :
H.D.D
  > Painted
  > HDD Window
  > Blue Activity LED (couldnt get a picture with it showing up for some reason)
Case
  > Cut Out done + Paint Job (waiting on Perspex)
  > Bottom and Top "Grills" Painted
Hardware Mods
  > So far I Have only installed my Red Whisper Fans

I'm ALSO making a controller to go with the Xbox:
  > Window cut out in the battery compartment (havn't seen one of these before? maybe a first?)
  > Orange and Black Paint Job ( Back and Start and Trigger must still be painted, i always forget em :/...)
  > Internal 1000mAH Battery with mini usb charge port ( credit to Phantomz0 for helping me here [https://www.acidmods.com/forum/index.php/topic,42143.msg316437.html#msg316437] to find what i was looking for

P.S when i was installing the charging board i accidentally dropped some solder on the board and i think a SMD part got "pulled off" with it, now it doesn't turn on, probally just pop a new board in there :)



Pics is self explanatory:

OK so nearly finished :D been a while since an update, and I've accomplished quite a'lot. sorry about the late update, had a rough test series and after that exams :/

Got some hiccups on the way which will be sorted out later:

>broke the top cover thing, so i have to get a new one and paint it.
>of the extra two fans i added one blew out dew to overload, and the other ones fin i broke with my clumsy thumb...
>middle fan pot controller blew because of overloading the one fan :/
>the face-plate doesn't fit 100%, have to see where stuff is in the way.

also i still have to add fans to the back where the lightning bolt is ( i decided against that beware the games vinyl, so i kinda let it shine threw the new coat, you'll see in the pics )

So here's my baby :) almost finished:

Fan Controller:




Faceplate:



Top grid that broke, this is temp fix:


Inside:



Put together:





Finished pics

Dood that is rocking \m/ I love how it looks good color choice orange and black and RED LED internal the cool 3 way nob control for the fan wicked Idea and the move of the on switch with the window to the lights ring. Almost looks like borg from star trek lol Been watching voyager all month long on Netflix hahaha.

About the controller where did you get that battery? That is a wicked cool Idea :)
