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.

Thanks for watching 😊
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: ua-cam.com/video/sJJ7cc2AYIM/v-deo.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.
@@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.
does it give me more fps ?
Totally not me thinking it would be a pc moving around the desk freely 💀
YOU TO ME TOO
Is your PC running? Well you'd better go catch it! Literally.

This is amazing. You are amazing. The physical and mental fortitude to do this is just downright batty, but wow was the end result worth it! SUCK IT, CYBERPOWER!
grad school level determination honestly....
Cyberpower has to put a bunch of components in it and all that stuff so I don't know why you're doing all that because I have to buy all of that stuff so that's why cyber park hasn't came out with it yet. They could be doing really good right now. By the way, you probably don't even have a PC, so I don't know why you're even talking about that...
@@Zipo214 Grad school is university? That isn't most of us
@@VashdaCrashgraduate school - Masters, PhD, MD. Degrees beyond undergraduate
@@Sneshie thanks, I guess that supports my point. Grad school level is above average and worth praising imo
As a mechanical engineer: I am fu**ing stunned by this craftsmanship! The time and effort you put into this is just mindblowing.
as a community college flunkie dropout I am F(asterisk)(asterisk)cking stunned by how little effort they put into qualifying disingenuous f(asterisk)cks like yourself
I read stunned as stoned lmfao
As another mechanical engineer, im agree with you. This is so much work.
Another mechanical engineer.
Another mechanical engineer
As a mechanical engineer, I have to say, that you my fried have every right to call yourself one too. Achieving this with the "limited" skill set you had is insane. You showed miraculous Problem solving skills. I am impressed
Right? He’s smarter than he gives himself credit for. That last panel is amazing.
"Stand proud, you're smart."
Ditto, Im also A Mech Eng and that is great.. the physical part a lot harder then just cad and concept
“You my fried”
- DWplays
Or that proves degrees makes many people ignorant.
i used a scientific method called "eyeballing it" 💀💀
For me, my usual scientific process is called "winging it". These 2 processes together are called "sure, it'll work" 😂
I call it a educated yolo
It is a "visible light spectrum photon scanning w/ 3 dimensional spacial data collecting and processing" process! 😂
Eat, Sleep, Eyeball, Repeat.
he eyeballed it and is making bank on youtube ads. you did nothing, commented on what he was doing, and got 5 (now 6) replies
Absolutely mental you managed to see all of this through, I got overwhelmed just watching. You're killing it with these videos and undoubtedly deserve more and more attention
I don't follow you on Twitter but Twitter recommended your tweet to me; you recommended this channel in said tweet and now here I am. I was not dissapointed, 11/10 video. Liked and subscribed, I'll be sharing it around. Thanks!
@@Ideal_Idea
This is absolutely mind blowing.
No words, just clicking subscribe.
wow
Dude I thought he failed the last one, animated it as a joke to segway into a solution
I didn’t expect to see you here
Me too
That moment where you finally plugged the more complicated one in and saw all of the pieces moving together as intended must have been so damn satisfying
Your editing is crazy good, the transitions are genuinely magical.
Fr fr
honestly, that one in the beginning with the picture and the drawing was really awesome.
Thought exactly the same
@@Yani.___.the top panel, where it started out as a graphic and very seemlesslu turned into the actual wooden panel and he picked it up, that's the one that got me most
The most impressive part is that you're so consistent and committed to the process that you VISUALIZED every freaking single gear's teeth on that drawing with hundreds of gears. Mindblowing sir
Whole reason I subscribed to this man
Criminally underrated, what top notch editing and the humor really landed, not to mention what an awesome concept! 10/10
Everyone in the comments is so supportive, but I am kind of disappointed that no one talks about the drawing skills this dude has, but I guess it was shadowed but the hercules work put in the entire video and project. Just amazing ❤
I was shocked by his drawing skills tbh. Especially that intricate drawing at 20:00 x-x
Dude I am a mechanical engineer and my jaw literally dropped in the end! So inspiring! It seemed impossible at first but you made it work. Congrats!

Your transitions for your diagrams are incredible. They're really creative and your designs are stylish.
Wow. The editing, the transitions, the little (and big!) visual tricks, the documentation of the process, the end result - all incredible. Insane work!
Those animation overlays are insane :O. really nice editing. And nice pc of course, even though i think id look cooler in darker wood.
This is unbelievably impressive. As a mechanical engineer the fact that this all came together in that tight of a space is insane to me
then strap on tight and research "wrist watches"
@@Chevdriver Yeah... let's compare this to something that's had thousands of engineers and hundreds of years of development behind it. 😂
@@zenginellc i don't even think they were trying to diss it my guy. They're essentially saying how crazy impressive we as humans are and what we're capable of making work in tight spaces.
Fantastic editing + excellent sense of humor + beautiful designs. This made my day. Thanks!
Thank you for the kind words and the support! It really does mean a lot to me
SIR, because of you . the hidden creative people get a motivation to do something with the help of their creativity handsoff
you are really a genius person. even after such amount of failures you didn,t stop@@Ideal_Idea
I scrolled past this the first few times that it came up in my feed, and I am so thankful that the algorithm kept insisting. This is incredible, great artistic idea, interesting engineering process, just the right amount of subtle humor, and that editing is just… A+. Great work, I can’t even imagine how long each individual piece of this must have taken, but the hard work really shines through!
Me too! I'm so glad I finally clicked.
You know, for all the problems you ran into....the end result is absolutely stunning
Genuinely one of the best youtube videos ive ever watched. The end resulting illusion actually looks like its still CGI lol you work hard man thats so awesome!
That is very generous in both donation and your words, thank you.
Believe me, that is not generous.
It is masterpiece, hope you reach out many people as you can. Wonderful work. I will follow your contents with my community@@Ideal_Idea
Sir currently i am in 12th grade and i also want to build something amazing like this so which engineering field should i join electrical?
28 minutes with you feels like 4 minutes. I admire your perseverance and creativity.
Mad props! I love "stupid", overly complicated, nerdy projects like this! Doing it just because you can and want to challenge yourself is amazing!
Definitely quite silly, lol. Imagine how loud and annoying this is.
@@CigsInABlanketi love contraption white noise i wish i had this case
This channel is gonna be huge. Your editing and imagination is genuinely great! Keep up the great vids!
Dude!!! Your editing skills are on another planet! I had a blast watching this! :D
I love when creators show their mistakes and discovery process. This is brilliant!
Yes! Something I only learnt recently for my "hobby" of photography, is that you need to post the bad shots too! If you only show the best, people will never see what it takes to achieve the best ones. I think the same applies here, where it is so much more enjoyable and "grounds" the project to see the iterative process required to achieve a successful design.
Woodworking and PC building? How did UA-cam miss this in the porn filters? Why hasn't Google put you at the top of my list everyday forever? How is this the first I've heard of you? I loved absolutely EVERYTHING about this. Strong work. Please, please please, keep doing you. The awkward humility and god tier editing really sells it. I loved every minute. Pure genius.
that editing with the whole desk/setup/drawing segment was smooth af
Ok those graphics and the way you integrated them are bloody impressive for a youtube DIY video. Really a step above
God this looks so incredibly good, praying more people find your channel before you lose your mind doing these crazy projects solo 🙏
24:45
I'm so glad you kept this part in, because it really shows how much effort went into the final build. Seeing you work so hard for a design just to have to start completely over has to be the most defeated feeling. It really does make it much more impactful when it finally works though!
"I don't know how to code" "Im not a mechanical engineer" bro I know coders and mechanical engineers that come nowhere close to this level of skill and work ethic. You can easily consider yourself both of those things and more! Bravo sir!!
Those seamless 3d edits between shots were very mesmerising and the final result of both builds was very satisfying. You earned yet another sub!
wtf mesmerising feat of mechanical engineering. you 200% deserve this. i can't imagine anybody else being as committed to making this work
this is one of the most beautiful videos I've ever seen on youtube, I can't even imagine the amount of time it took to organize and edit this entire video let alone how long and how much work it took to work and make all of this into a reality, this is truly mind blowing by every definition.
Absolutely INSANE. Clicked on these thinking it was a Howl's Moving Castle PC situation haha. But instead what I found is this genuinely resourceful, funny, STRONG critical thinker that knows how to create a vision and see it through to the end.
I loved being carried through your R&D process of what you were trying to accomplish and what you immediately thought of to solve it even if it didn't work out. Anyone could just "delete the footage and pretend like it didn't happen" like you said in the video, haha. However, overcoming trials and tribulations is what makes for good story-telling. People that try to sell themselves as knowing the answers to absolutely everything are simply not as entertaining to watch.
Incredibly impressive work and although you "aren't a mechanical engineer", this is the power of gathering knowledge and just executing to accomplish something. As a software engineer, I can tell you right now that your ability to design and build makes you an engineer. Keep it up man!
We gotta respect the sheer amount of effort put into editing this video
Like oh my goodness those transitions are beautiful
Not to mention the very complicated idea👌👌👌
Amazing how something so creative and detailed can grab my attention for 27 mins. I didn’t take my eyes off the screen once, just the thought of the level of determination and engineering. Amazing video, watched every second. Hope yt blows this up
Had no idea before or during that it was 27 mins, genuinely enthralling content. Both your design skills and creativity for the case then combined with the quality of edit you put together. Next level stuff mate! Congrats.
I don't normally post comments on UA-cam videos, but in this case, leaving without saying "I appreciate it" would be a mistake. Wonderful job, brother.👏👏👏👏👏👏
I wish there was more content to watch. The editing is amazing, the storytelling is amazing, it's all just awesome stuff. Sorry for your loss of sanity, but thank you for the 27 minutes!
You're channel is gonna be huge if you keep doing content like that! It's soo awesome :)
I realize this is a comment that may be lost in the flood, but I wanted to let you know that your editing quality is truly one of the best I've ever seen on UA-cam - it's smooth, relevant, and really really cool. This is the first video of yours I've stumbled upon, and I'm blown out of the water with it. Enjoy your day sir, and keep being astounding
I always read through all the comments even if I cant respond to each one, thank you for the kind words!
Wow that beautiful. Especially the last one, it doesn’t even look real.
Dude this is amazing. Huge props, you really crushed it!
This is probably one of the best videos i have ever watched on yt. The editing and transitions are incredibly visually appealing. The narration is clear and explanative without being boring. The video work is superp. You are a genius who only accepts the best, and this video reflects that, making it a delight to watch.
As an architecture undergrad final-year student, I somewhat understand the complexity and the insane amount of effort that went into this project. I have massive, massive respect for seeing this through. I had the widest smile on my face ever. Some day, I would love to try this out myself as well.
Think I appreciate all the "video magic" you performed with this... not all can appreciate the forethought and planning that goes into it, but I see you ;)
This is an instant subscribe for me. It has everything. Cool editing, engineering, dry humor and insane determination.
Wow man, what you have created, in terms of creativity, aesthetics, just pure hours and hours of work and dedication and also on the video side, snappy editing, good humor, nice 3d compositing. All of that makes you a solid channel, one of the very few actually! Keep it up!
Amazing! You've inspired me to get going on some kinetic art projects I've been postponing, though I have no idea how you find the time and energy for these incredibly detailed projects. Congratulations!
Little bits at a time is all it takes, good luck on your project!
Yo, the production quality in this video, made me think you should have a couple hundred thousand followers at a minimum, not 61k!? This man deserves some love!
The production quality of this video is insane, espeically for a small youtuber like you especially without a sponsor, I've watched all of your videos and none of them have been in any way underwhelming. This is one of my favorite youtube channels out there. 12:42, as a coder myself, i can agree with this statement fully.
I have a new found respect for you coders. I was impressed with them before, but even slightly dipping my toes into it now I can confirm what you all do is actual magic and it is beyond me.
@@Ideal_Idea Good job on another viral video!
This is the first time I've come across this channel. Just wanna say, the transitions are just so insanely clean! It's crazy.
It's crazy how this hasn't caught on yet. Just from your build alone, the potential is exponential. Love your work!
i watched this at 3am and nearly woke everyone up when he said this: 24:01
gave me a good giggle. good job sir
also, that last montage gave me actual shivers, the music, the camera angles watching the build process. this whole video is amazing in camera work and scripting. i am a well earnt subscriber, sir
Man this is so cool, and the icing on the cake was the fantastic editing. Amazing job!
THE REAL CONTENT CREATOR . to put such amount of work not just in creating those mesmerising panels, but also in the video editing and with the humour. just brilliant 🔥🔥🔥
Can we just appreciate the skill he used to edit this video? ❤😅
Without exaggeration, this is the most beautiful PC case I've ever seen.
I'm not even 2 minutes in and the cuts are already SO good. Having us wonder what the circle was supposed to show, for the arduino to show up in the middle, and dropping the markers, to color the sketch, instead of just showing the finished sketch. So satisfying
The second one looks so trippy and almost like an animation. Really amazing craftsmanship.
i’m amazed by the fact you did all that work, realized it’s not going to work and you went back and redid it! motivation is hard to sustain, i’m glad you kept it!
Wow man. That is a tremendous amount of “stick with it” you have. The end result is great!
i'm astounded you only have 19k subs, the production value on this video is amazing. Really good concept and well executed, got me hooked to the end.
Well, 23.5 k now lol
As someone who watches 6+ hours of youtube almost every day I just want to say this is one of the best things Ive seen in years. Your editing and videography are also amazing and deserve an instant sub for sure. Can't wait to see another awesome creator blow up! :D
At the beginning I thought it was just another video trying to make something simple look cool and difficult. But sir what you've done with your second design is utterly impressive it is by far one of the best craft videos I've ever watched. Truly a masterpiece, thank you for posting it❤
This is insane I’ve thought about building a pc case before but this is SO much more props on you for not giving up
That second design looks absolutely sick in action. I can't imagine the satisfaction and relief you felt once it worked. Well done! This is the first video of yours that I have seen, and it earned a sub from me for sure
Super cool! I'd love to see a company mass produce this concept, especially if they keep the ability to add custom DIY or 3rd party panels!
hey dude. its a massive treat when you post a video, every single one has been so interesting and impressive. the kinetic panels look insanely good, well done! it really is a special effect even greater than the sum of its parts! (and thats alota parts!)
i don't want to break your heart, but given they work around a single motor just continuously turning at a constant RPM, you could literally just have plugged a 5V motor into a USB port. no controller, no programming, no nuthin. just finding one with the right RPM or a gearbox/appropriate gearing in your mechanism to make it go the speed you want.
but hey, i'm sure you learned alot and saw it through for a phenomenal result, and theoretically you can couple the motor speed and direction to various things now, like game FPS or something.
Thank you! I am glad you enjoyed the video. I am sure there was a better way to do the motor lol. That is good to know if I ever want to expand on this idea or mess with other electronic stuff. The main reason I went this route was to provide a variable speed if I needed to change it between panels but tbh your solution would have probably saved me a month of work if I had known that off the start and planned for it.
@@Ideal_Idea U could also have used a pwm fan and modify it to have gears ect could have been cheaper than gettin a motor too :P plug it to your mother board and this way u would be able to control it using ur motherboard fan software , Armory crate or so on
Those kinect sculptures as panels are insane. You have tremendous patience. Keep this going. I am sure you can sell these designs. There would be many interested to buy.
4:21 caught me off guard (I was looking off screen), very clever. Love your editing and storytelling style! The project is NUTS!
Gotta say, the effort you put in to editing and the transitions are impressive. I've seen big budget movies that failed to merge shots as well as you did.
Gotta say, if you actually meant what you typed you would've commented with something more genuine. I've seen low budget movies that succeeded at feeling more real than what you commented
Im only a minute in and I am still impressed by how high effort your videos all are. Its amazing!
the gears on the first one jumping around like that is really good tbh, it makes it seem cool and jittery. really wanted to see the second one btw, it looked really dope
just discovered your channel, you're so resourceful and creative! I loved seeing the process of this. your editing is top notch too ! very inpsiring :D
man, you always make my day when I see a new video uploaded. Such an underrated youtuber! I've shown so many friends your channel
Thank you for the kind words, I am honored!
Seriously, this content is like 1 mil subs level. I look forward to seeing your future content. This build is amazing and your style is fun. Now tell your friends to suck it because this already is an amazing setup
watching this again now after discussing it with a friend, and seriously... the amount of work that went into it is simply amazing. bravo.
I'm just as impressed now as I was when I first watched it.
this is an instant sub, the editing was amazing, the determination was inspiring, and the final product was jaw dropping, i applaud you my good sir
Dude, SICK!!!!! That’s amazing. Your patience and attention to detail is godly. I love this design.
Also, really great video editing. I was engaged the whole time, and it was very entertaining.
Lastly, your accent (speech impediment?), is so authentic. It’s like a real TV nerd. I can tell you’re very knowledgeable, but the accent makes me feel you are real, trustworthy, and even more smart.
First time watching a video from this channel and I was shocked when I saw how low the sub count is for how high quality the work being done and editing being done is. I'm not even really a "crafty" guy when it comes to pc stuff but this was a fantastic watch. Subbed for sure.
I have never seen anyone with so much patience to keep going after spending hours just for an idea to fail. So impressive that you finally got there in the end.
DIY Perks actually built a "breathing" PC that uses pressure valves to keep it at operating temp. It is much louder than a fan, but very cool concept, and I would hope to someday see a collab between you two! Good video!
Dude you are ridiculous. Not only is the project and your product amazing, but your videos are amazing too! I cannot believe how much time and effort you put in, it is very inspiring
That hex pattern is insane! Thanks for making this🙂
A good tip to prevent splitting when cutting plywood is to add painters tape to the backside. You also might want to try to adjust your blade depth if possible. Another thing that will help is to make sure to use a new and sharp blade for cuts where you need a nice finish.
This man is legit the modern Leonardo da Vinci. He's talented in almost every art out there!
As a mechanical engineer (am definitely not), that last design is insane! Well done lad 👌
This is such an inspirational Video! I love how you did not just throw a bunch of materials at the problem, but kept refining until it finally worked. This shows how, even with limited money, you can still make a really really cool project :)
I think timing belts would be your best friend if you tried this again. Instead of having little gears that mesh all you big gears together so they move together. you could wrap a single loop of timing belt around an entire row of gears that moves them all simultaneously. It will probably save you a lot of headache (and might run a bit quieter as well).
Wow, I loved the build, but can I just say, the editing quality in this is TOP notch and hilarious! Well done!
First video ive seen of yours, youre obviously an OP content creator lol damn. The editing and transition between so many different scenes where youre speaking, its like you can actually think and plan in an extra dimension hahaha. Not mention the actual project and substance of the video itself. Youre nuts man this is incredible.
insane desgin and work aside, this is such an entertaining video to watch cuz of the editing and "story-telling", great job dude!
This is STUNNING. You should be SO proud, cause that is a lot of incredible work. Your tenacity and diligence is admirable! and it looks SO GOOD. Very fun and informative, and some good comedy in there! Even the editing was just excellent! Highest of fives, pal.

The end result is unbelievably awesome! Just unreal! Looks like a 3D render 0_o
This is the very first video I've ever seen from you. I can't image how much work you've put on all the planning + implementing + processing + montage but it is fire! MEGARESPECT
You have an instasub from me and I would recommend you to any of my DIY inspired friends.
Thanks for the efforts and inspiration for all the existing and future creators!
Wish you all the best!
PS: And I totally forgot to mention of the gentle drops of humor you've put here an there. it was bursting and hilarious at times and keep me smiling through the almost whole video. Separate thanks for making my day better!
Amazing work! You are a hero 👌
No- you are the hero for above and beyond supporting, I appreciate it a lot!
I envy the intelligence and creativity of some people on youtube,subscribed!
