I built a PC, but it moves

In this video I build a custom PC but design a new case for it and make it kinetic. This is my gaming computer, editing computer, and everything in between. I have spent the last couple months getting the mechanical engineering portions figured out for this custom PC build since I have no idea what I am doing but wanted to make a really complicated design. I have had the idea for a kinetic computer case for a while and after seeing the one from Cyberpower I was excited to try and design and build my own. This is an Arduino project that is actually pretty simple but the mechanical engineering side is difficult having to work within such a constrained space. As far as custom PC case builds go I hope this was one like you have never seen before.

EDIT: I am changing this comment from a FAQ to a link to the behind the scenes video. Airflow? Sound? Digital files? If you have a question that wasn't answered in this video, you should hopefully find it here: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/qbB6asaUl6e9eYE.html

If you are interested in improving airflow, see if you can mount two 140 mm fans on the top of the case. Not sure if you have enough clearance within the case but it would improve the amount of air intake you have tremendously. I wouldn't move the front panel fans to the top though as it'd mess with the lighting effect on the front panel.

@Ideal_Idea 7 ай бұрын

@@Prim1itve This is a good solution and you're right there is plenty of space up there currently. I will definitely add those if the airflow ever becomes a problem.

For the sound, you can get silent stepper motor drivers which may help. Also, that looks like a *really* beefy motor for what you need. You might be able to get away with using a smaller motor, which may or may not help.

Instead of sanding the acrylic, I'd recommend some frosted etched vinyl. you can probably get some scraps from a sign/vinyl shop for a piece that small. They may even lay it for you. It'd take like 2 minutes.
