Kewl... but I've seen someone else make one before! Curious.. Why do old machines always end up being a fish tank of some sort?? Does it have anything to do with the screensaver?

If by "interested" you mean "Anyone wanna buy it?" the answer is most definitely "No."

Nice work though. That's one of the cooler G5 fish tanks I've seen.

Not really sure, but I think if you're selling it then this should be in the Marketplace forum and not this one.
If you just wanted to share it or explain the process or whatever, then it's ok, but selling it or waiting for offers from someone should be done in the Marketplace forum, not here.

Sorry broskie, it's a nice machine and the watercooling is a spectacular touch, but you don't qualify for the market place in this forum yet.

Very nice work! Do you mind telling us the machining/work involved?

Not to hijack your thread, as I am genuinely interested in how you made the tank, etc., but I just finished making a few of these:

wow, love ur mini tank. pls update us when u complete it with fish, yeh.

as for mine, it took me more than 6 mths to complete this project.
have to source for a carpenter who brave enough to undertake this tricky pull-out rake & a workshop who is disparate enough to take my small job(cut-out the G5 solid alum plate). the rest(custom built tank, light & etc) get it from my reg fish shop.
