Mounting Coolermast HAF 932 on wheels, "that don't break" Options

[boinker]

Well my first and only disappointment "knock on wood" with my coolermast haf 932 was the wheels that were included with the case broke upon first use on thin carpet. A disapointment yes, But a great opertunity to modify a bit. Soo. here we go.

To start, I purchased some wheels from ace hardware. I could not find a wheel that could fit upon the original wheels Holes but thats ok.... I can make my own. note that they are good for DIY parts, metals, hardware ect ect. the wheels I bought are a one central bolt type and are disigned for rolling chairs or something fairly heavy. After I got a hold of the hardware I needed I took the case down to the bone. WHen you do anything that may involve metal shaving, just take it apart all the way.

After that You will need to drill the holes. I sized them up a hair small then filed all the flashings off to better my chances of a level case when I was finished. this is what you wind up with.

After thats performed you will likely need to cut the wheel's bolts excessive threads. and chances are your going to need to cut case parts for clearance. If you look at the picture you can see where I had to cut up the power supply stand on both sides to make clearance for the large bolts. I also had to cut the hardrive cage a little on the cases right side but I couldn't get a good picture.


After you have cut the bolts and installed them you should winde up with this sort of assembly After fully installing the Guts. 'SHRUG'
And please be sure you purchase locking wheels, if not for locking wheels the case would be sitting on the floor and not the table.

And you continue overclocking at about 2:00 in the morning on a work night..... see Bishop245 in background "I found HIM"



Its tons of fun to modify cases in my experience. But this one is all useful. Just due to the Simple fact I can roll my case out of the way when I want to vacuum or transport it. It also helps air get underneath the case and make more airflow. enjoy. hope this help or encourages someone.
