These are the type of videos I would actually set time aside to watch... Incredible craftsmanship

[@mxcbuilds6633]

Thank you for taking the time out of the day to watch it, much appreciated :)

[@I_Georgiev]

Exactly, same for me. Great build!

[@soccerchris05730]

I left the tab open for like 3, 4 hours so i could comeback and watch it

[@tommyshaw2420]

I "wood" also like to watch these types of videos

[@Thee_Dr_Evil]

The huge leap forward in your design and build is incredible, add in the aesthetic of the parts and my mind is blown. FWIW, this build deserves custom cables.

[@mxcbuilds6633]

Thank you! Custom cables would have been ideal, but I figured the stock cables would be hidden sufficiently

[@manularrere]

Totalmente de acuerdo

[@Makerr8]

The build looks beautiful. A pro tip on the glue with wood dust though; if you mix the dust with the glue you can make a wood filler paste that will match the wood. It's a little easier to spread in order to fill all of the gaps.

[@mxcbuilds6633]

Thanks for watching and the suggestion!

[@SavetheSheep]

He actually used this tip in his next build 🎉

[@lexierimes123]

The amount of details in this are amazing! Keep up the good work

Labor of Love... or madness. Hard to know the difference at this point. Amazing work! Congratulations on the partnerships/sponsors. You deserve it!

[@mxcbuilds6633]

Thank you! It's definitely a combination of both haha 😅

[@alessandrosuppini943]

What an exquisite built, very nice the contrast between the walnut and the golden accents of brass and custom paint. You did a great job, just a shame that the bending is still showing flat spots in between grooves, maybe next time you might want to try stems bending whole boards and using strong clamping onto curved mdf templates to make it super smooth 👍

[@mxcbuilds6633]

Thanks for watching! I'm not sure I'll be able to bend >15mm thick solid boards. Will have to see how that's done

[@ElectrcRadiation]

you'd be surprised how thick of boards you can bend with a good steam box. Otherwise, veneer walnut glued together to the desired thickness is another good way of creating a desired bend. Though loving the look of the pc!@@mxcbuilds6633

[@AlfredStoppels]

What a Breathtaking Beauty. The Craftmanship, the Solutions, the Compliment to the ProArt line--up. You hit this one way out the park. Loved watching it build and am stunned by the end result, it is soooo beautiful. Amazing Job m8.

[@mxcbuilds6633]

Thanks for the kind words, glad you enjoyed the build!

[@t_dub]

Shut up and take my money! Why are designs like this not a mainstream thing? So good.

[@mxcbuilds6633]

Haha I think it'll be hard to mass manufacture such a case and still make it profitable?

[@t_dub]

@@mxcbuilds6633 You make this look like it could be manufactured in a modular way. If I could buy this, I would, it's a magnificent aesthetic.

[@charlesrocco8664]

This looks fantastic. I love the natural walnut with the black and gold. Wish I had the skills to make something like this. Keep up the good work!

[@mxcbuilds6633]

Thanks for watching! :))

[@TinyMaths]

I admit that I absolutely have 'shiny object syndrome', and am addicted to that gadgetry, but bro, when you have tech adorned by woodworking craft like this, it's beautiful to behold. I put this in the grandfather clock category; practical but aesthetically pleasing.

[@mxcbuilds6633]

Thank you! It's still kinda shiny I guess haha

[@simong9151]

This is a thing of beauty! I'm loving the trend of wood in computer builds and this is one of the best examples I've seen. But great editing and presentation too. I look forward to more content from you.

[@rmTheWalrus]

Bless folks like yourself with the patience (and skill, of course) to make something like this come to life

[@mxcbuilds6633]

Thanks!

[@webknark]

Work of art! For the kerf slots I think it would have looked nice if they had brass inlayed instead of trying to hide them. Cheers

[@mxcbuilds6633]

Thanks! That is an interesting idea too, will consider for future :D

[@FJB2020]

Could do traditional kerfs with a brass powder epoxy inlay that way you get a better curve on the exterior. Either or would be a nice way to highlight the cuts that it took to make the bend.

[@ThePlatinumFox]

I build my own wooden pc cabinet by gluing a piece of wood acustic to the front... this... this is something else. Amazing craftmanship!

[@harrykaincles]

That is an awesome case! Wood had a meaning to me because all the men in my family have been in construction including me, going back to my great-granddad. I wish I had the tech to build something like that case.

[@mxcbuilds6633]

I love working with wood, forgiving material with many possibilities. I'd say have a go and learn from it, as you can see my first case wasn't very fancy or neat, but everyone has to start somewhere :))

[@dillonthecro1499]

This is true craftsmanship. A man of culture 🙏🏿

[@mxcbuilds6633]

Thank you! Appreciate it 😁

[@deanlawson6880]

Okay, this is the most beautiful custom PC build I have ever seen. Your strict attention to the smallest and most minute details is just incredible! The patient router work, with the Brass insert pieces is superb, and the Brass insert strips fit perfectly! I also love the detail on the motherboard strips where you took the tedious time to make that 48 small tape strips to tape off the gold "STRIX" lettering. Also the small wooden accent pieces on the motherboard just add to the whole perfect look! I've built quite a few PC's for work, while working for companies, as well as for myself and family and friends, but I've never done anything like this. Such an incredible build! Thanks for filming and documenting this and sharing it with us!

[@mxcbuilds6633]

Thank you! Have you watched my most recent video? Maybe you'll like that one more 😉

[@ashuragaming1981]

For bending the wood you have the cut lines, and they are touching but still visible. You can use wood glue+the fine dust from sanding to make it completely unvisible. Nice build like it!

@@mxcbuilds6633 any chance you kept your laser engraver files? Would you sell them?

[@mxcbuilds6633]

Not selling the ones for the motherboard as that has the Asus logo on it. As for the other panels, no plans to publish them soon

[@indestruct1bl3]

Kerf you can get a pretty seamless kerf bend with no gaps by mixing the sawdust from the kerf cuts and wood clue then filling the gaps before you lock in the bend angle, just be ready to clean up the glue/dust mixture that squeezes out. It'll be extremely strong, both methods are completely valid though. When you were doing the routing, put a scrap board of the same thickness on the outside of your walnut piece and cut from that center line you routed through the piece, it would have stopped the blowout. I'm really surprised you didn't break that bit though, I've used one before and they are very fragile with harder woods like walnut/maple/oak/cherry, etc. The end result of your build is amazing! Love the look and overall techniques. I would have loved to see some custom PC cables in black/gold and cut to the right length to avoid the extra cables. I'm a PC builder and woodworker so this fits that niche, might have to give making a custom PC case a go!

[@mxcbuilds6633]

Thanks for the suggestion!

[@donaldexley1852]

The fine details on this were pretty amazing. Some gold and black custom cables would really make this perfect.

[@i_am_terom4810]

The actual cases you build are already beautiful on their own, but god damn the color matching is top notch. Would love to see a case like this on the market, made with materials that would be easier to work with, for manufacturing purposes

[@mxcbuilds6633]

Thank you! I already see a trend towards using more wood in mass manufactured cases. But it will be hard to sell one completely made of wood...

If you have a band saw (or even decent table saw for stuff that isn’t over 6” wide) you can re saw and make your own veneers out of rough lumber. Just need a vacuum bag to glue the thin slices back together.

[@dylanevans5644]

Beautiful case and great workmanship. In woodworking videos I have seen when wood bends are done they typically cover up the kerf slots with laminate, although you likely considered this idea already. Another would be to have used black epoxy for the glue up, maybe just at the edges, which would have contrasted nicely. But it's beautiful regardless, you must be super happy with it.

[@mxcbuilds6633]

Thank you! Great suggestions, will consider them in the future!

Beautiful Job! Diving into wood bending must have been challenging and you did a fantastic job. Your attention to detail is stellar and the inlays are a beautiful touch.
