That's so cool wtf

5:59 "And the third switch will A- !" Best quote. 10/10.

Push plate should surely be a drink dispenser of some kind. Nothing like storing liquids and electronics together

I know most modern gaming PCs don't have them nowadays but I kinda imagined the push plate would house a disk drive.

Now make a real, functioning teleporter.

5:59 thank you for adding this feature, I cant believe there are so many computers that don't do this.

This has the potential to be a killer water-cooled build. The tank could be a resivoir, and the screen could have a transparent LCD showcasing the inside.

This would make for an incredible TF2 arcade cabinet.

You should add a startup sound for the build! When opening the IO door, you should play the "metal pickup" sound, and when turning it on you should play the dispenser healing sound!

You should make the dial display the PCs internal temp for easy monitering and maintanence, and maybe add a slight glitch-y flicker to the "Provisions" sign. I know it doesn't flicker in-game, but if you're gonna make it a screen, why not give it some more character?

Guess all of those screens could be used for performance gauges, like temperature or utilisation, and for extra flavor, it could match the existing designs.

What if the little graph on the top of the dispenser actually displays info on the computer like core temperature?

consider: put a little pan under the inside of the push slot, then store things like pens/pencils, small screwdrivers, pieces of candy, etc in there, so you can just reach in and grab what you need in any given moment

5:58 "and the third switch will a-"

Amazing build as always. The different displays are clever.

Kinda disappointed those plungers dont plunge the whole way, but absolutely loved everything else. Those plungers reminds me of old arcade machines with the slightly sticky but super satisfying plungers. That squeak of unoiled likely slightly rusted metal just gives me so much nostalgia

A really cool computer. The FlexiSpot E7 perfectly supports it.

Not putting a water-cooling reservoir into the air tank is such a missed opportunity. Other then that good stuff!

Well done, sir! Can I just say, this channel is criminally underrated. I was already impressed with Wheatley. But this one knocks it out of the park again.

Best video on this site for sure, your mastery of CAD and ability to conceptualise these ideas and make them reality is just incredible

I'm sure you already considered this but water cooling? A big clear resevoir would look so cool in place of the tank. And as for the push door would it be possible to have some kind of mini fridge behind the whole machine that dispenses soda cans? Anyway this is very impressive and fun as is! I'm just throwing out some dumb ideas.

This came out so well, kinda wish the gauge displayed temperture or cpu/gpu temp, or as other said, display all of that on the main display or put some video game on that main screen and turn all the controls into a hellish controller for said game this is probably one of my favorite builds from you, because it serves practical application, is (i dare say) completely accurate to the in game model, and is fun!

This is my favoite build on KZfaq. Honestly cooler than any build on LTT.

You can use some sort of cable managment so it looks like ammo

I know it'll mess with your headphone holder abilities but this badboy needs its ammo belt. Amazing work once again!

Other PC case ideas: - HL2 Health Packs - Black Mesa HEV charging panels - Combine charging panels

5:59 "And the third switch, will AA-"

Love the quality of your work!

This is like the time people made Valva a level 1 sentry. Keep it up.

I would have been a bit funnier if instead of "Not just for any engineer, but this guy right here" you said "but not just for any engineer, but THE engineer"

I like how he didn't say what the third button do to make the common joke that Valve can't count to three 5:58

This has got to be the coolest thing I have seen built, I love TF2 plus the lore and playing Engineer. Taking this thing from the game and doing everything you just did is a work of art and it is a feat of engineering that combines so much of what I enjoy. You should use the push plate and a small compartment behind it to hold just a few 3D printed bullets.

This is SICK! Love all the displays and features in it!

I was hoping the push plate would be the power button tbh. Massive power button

You can for sure make this digital Gauge show one of your Computer temps. There are computers with fancy displays on top of CPU, or some Temperature displays in front of case, nontheless the design is great! and im sure you will find some ways yourself in future for more epic content with it Oh and little life hack i am doing myself is that i store potato chips bag on top of my Outtake fans magnetic cover, so they are pretty warm and tasty this way for those few minutes after opening them, soooooo maybe your pushPlate can also be storage for something simillar that would Benefit from warm temperature inside your case?

BRO this is SO freaking well done !! Don't forget to hit it with a wrench if it got any issue !

The push hinge should reveal an additional outlets, if u ever need some.

you could have taken the body design of the level 2/3 dispenser for extra inside space considering you did the level 3 top thingy, and it was very logical for the main screen to function as a monitor aswell. great build

Truly beautiful, this channel just never disappoints

Fuckin' ace. Should mod that chair into a Rancho Relaxo. Go deeper into the Conagher wormhole.

I'll never understand how you are able to explain so much in only (around) 10 minutes every time.

I need this, I want this. All I need in my life right now!

Awesome build! I was surprised you didn't use the medical side bottle for a hidden water reservoir, that would be cool to add!

flexispot picking Mr. Volt and I Did A Thing to sponsor is the most effective advertising I've seen on youtube

if people still used physical currency as frequently as they used to, I'd suggest the push plate go to a piggy bank. as is, it reminds me of vcr player doors, so maybe it could be a good way to insert removable media? another I/O board, perhaps, and the door just rests against whatever you have plugged in to stay open? or maybe it could be some sort of fancy modular external drive system? I know video editing uses a lot of storage, and a lot of videographers have just stacks of hard drives that they swap out when they get full to keep physical backups of all the stuff they made.

You kidding me! You can’t beat this! This is so freakin cool I’m totally gonna lose it.

5:58 I'm glad to know that the third switch will "AAAA"

Uncle Dan is a very good century man

Use the gas tank as a water reservoir and pump for a custom water cooling setup.

The tank off to the side should be like a portable cup and bowl for food and drinks

Idea: You could put a reservoir in the air tank for future water cooling!

Medical tank gauge should be used to show frames (0 - normal frames using the gauge part of it keeping some of its design)

Future upgrades: -The tech on site to be a water tank for water cooled PCs -Make it an actual dispenser where if you push the tab it actually gives you candy bar or something -The ammo belt could be the wires for your monitors If I had the Time and the 3-D printers I would've totally made this

This needs to be a product that I can buy, but maybe without having to buy a desk first

push plate could be just a pocket that houses some tools or you can pull usb ports and table controls to push plate and turn bottom row into a bigger tool holder

honestly, i thought the gas tank on the side would allow some easy access to some liquid coolant while also making the gauge show the status of coolant. the small display could show the temp stat of the computer as a whole, and the large screen should show available space, to keep the full meter on display like in game. the ammo holder could have been a handle to slide the main pc out incase of emergency or to allow upgrades to the internal parts. but besides those ideas, this video was really good. keep it up!

I remember the times where modding your pc case to for example look like something from your favourite game. Nowadays it's just black or white box with so many lights that you can see them from miles away. good times

fantastic build :)

This is the one project in the last year or so this man has actually physically built. When are we getting Wheatley Mk 3? Or TF2 Sentry?

This is what the engineer goes through multiple times every round

"and the third switch will A-" made me giggle

Not gonna lie, I laughed when I first saw you as the engineer. :)) It is always a pleasure to watch your videos, you are so inspiring you can't even imagine! Thanks a lof for all you do

Make a push plate for storing flash drives and stuff like that.

I'd dreamed about something like this for many years but wasn't enthusiastic enough about PCs to tackle it, well done!

The push plate would be a nice spot for a CD drive. Not enough cases with room for that anymore, might as well add one to yours.

The LCD screens really sold it. Awesome build!

Bro literally "Dispenser gone'up" Live and learn, Uncle Dane!

Speaking of 4 boxes stacking on top of each other. You could definitely do a variant with a server stack.

Amazing, Engineer is my favourite class and I've been playing TF2 again recently since Overwatch died.

If you push the push plate it should play the Uncle Dane theme, with the dispenser goin' up onto your desk it might be fitting

Maybe the push plate could be a slot covering a disc drive?

Push plate seems like an awesome place for a couple of hard drive hotswap adaptors

you could modify the side tank and inside to turn it into a liquid cooled PC, and the gauge at the top could instead display CPU, GPU, and memory temperatures.

What?! This is insane, I am speechless... It's perfect

The small "pressure" meter should show CPU useage, and the main screen should show useage of ram and other random memory and temprerature.

Amazing!!! I love this

This should be a full size vending machine

Awesome build. I kinda expected the air tank to be a reservoir for liquid cooling the computer.

So cool how you can theoretically use it as a somewhat awkward all-in-one since the main screen is a whole 15 inches and HD

Even though it is old media, i think it would be cool to possibly put a disk drive in the push plate.

Now build a gaming teleporter

This is one of the coolest things i have seen in a while. very well made

Uncle Dane is gonna trade away all his unusuals to buy this

Yesterday I was literally th I nuking "damn I want another Mr volt video" lol nice thing to wake up to

He’s going to accidentally drop it and yell “DISPENSER DOWN!”

The tank might be a good place to put batteries for an internal UPS. The gauge could even function as a battery indicator.

my first thought for the push plate is one of those wacky drive bay gadgets from the 2000s like a cupholder or a cigarette lighter on the inside

I feel like Engi would get a good laugh outta this. Cool build!

You could use the tank as a reservoir for a liquid cooling system, or any other idea that could involve water

He is "THE" Engineer

The dispenser came out fantastic. I’d love to have a kinda tf2 themed pc rig done in this kinda style. Maybe not the full dispenser of course. But I kinda engineer inspired machine built case would be awesome

I know the screens are cool but I think analog dials and displays would've been so much cooler imo haha. But this design still has so much potential! Like, imagine if the air tank was a water tank for the PC's water-cooling system, and the dial above it showed the CPU or GPU temperature, with a little red zone for the temperatures which start damaging them. And I know that you designed it around the main dial being a monitor.. but if you ever end up turning the Dispenser into more of a PC case to accompany a screen, making it show remaining available CPU/GPU/RAM dedication would be so cool! Your creativity is insane and I LOVE this project!

What if the air tank on the side of the dispenser held some kind of drink like soda and "dispensed" it into a cup when needed. It could just have like any 2 liter bottle in it. Connect that to a a spout or maybe even something that comes out of the push plate, and you can get a drink while gaming on your dispenser. Heck, you could probably find a way to refrigerate the bottle (but that would be kinda over the top).

Imagine the push sign being used for a controller being dispensed or a mini keyboard that’d be awesome

5:58 “And the third switch will *A-“*

I think a small mini sentry would be a good idea for an alternative camera, like the gunslinger sentry, with an LED red light on top. I think it would be an interesting concept to go with the dispenser.

Pleasure to see you’re still alive sir

Haha, been looking forward to this video. I love TF2. I also bought those same brand of overalls and likely goggles for my Engineer costume I made a couple months ago.

You should absolutely watercool the computer, sending the water cooling loop through the tank on the side, (remaking the tank out of orange transparent plastic or plexiglass) and using it as a reservoir.
