K'nex Test Bed

fps justin · June 4th, 2006

I am going to create a testing bed for the pc, so its slightly more protection then just leaving everything in the open. Besides it would look cool. If i ever did reviews int eh future, i'd use this but for now, i'm going to give it to Tyreal. I wanted to post pics all along the way but noticed that mom has the digital camera, so i guess i will only poast the finishing product unless eh coems back halfway.

I'll try to post pics later tonight. 8)

Hmm, sounds intersting indeed. I have to question it's strength though...

how would you go about grounding it as well?

If there is a power cable plugged into the PSU and into the wall it is grounded.

your talking to a genious when it comes to lego//k'nex. My and my cuzin are like 1337 and we have years and years of exp. If we were characters in WoW and we'd be level 60 for like lego engineering.

As for strength, its not **** like some of the OCF test beds. Its rasied 1 cm off the groud and reinforced quite well.

ok. i'm finished after a few hours of work. It seems to be quite strong but there are a few weak spots, so i might spend some time trying to strengthen it a bit more.

Id say around 6lbs for a cheapy PSU, and upto 12 lbs for like the PCP&C 1kilowat thing, HD is prolly around 3-4 lbs, a DVD write is prolly around the same as the HD
