all right so we're uh this is the moment we've all been waiting for we're on our
0:05
way to the paint shop to pick up the cases they were delayed by one day so uh
0:11
we haven't seen any results yet
0:14
and I hope they look as good as I hope they're going to
0:19
look going on hey what are we taking pictures for oh we're we're actually uh
0:24
documenting the whole process oh what
0:27
are these for anyways those are front grills for the no no no I mean like your
0:31
your monitors oh we're going to be selling huh really yeah special systems
0:37
in these uh in these cases oh
0:40
okay it's dry I guess oh no I just mean I don't want to
0:44
scratch them or anything okay so here here cuz we're
0:48
going to partially reassemble them before we go just make transport a
0:51
little bit easier so uh okay here here here let's see the girls wait are you
0:55
still shooting video yes oh okay well no no restart
1:01
well we haven't seen the cases yet but here are the front fan grills so those
1:06
are looking nice very very glossy red finish on them so uh yeah still more to
1:11
come these are not I don't even know
1:14
what I'm supposed to say right now but here's all of the panels so you can see
1:18
three of the cases are here two of them are over there but one of the uh you
1:22
can't get you can't get too far away from me because of this the mic won't
1:25
pick me up so one of the shop workers is over there so we don't want to video
1:29
those but you can see we've got a very very glossy finish all along the tops of
1:33
the cases as well as on the side panels we got the front grills done so soon
1:37
we're going to be reassembling these to show you guys the completed
1:41
case here help me
1:50
trans that's glossy that's very glossy
1:55
all right do you want to do a quick video of this sry don't care don't get our friends in the uh of when you when
2:00
you when you create a small panel whole big a little bit different colors a
2:04
little different way right now way
2:08
more oh
2:11
yeah oh this is great this is actually this is really good I I wasn't sure what
2:16
to expect CU we've never done this before so uh yeah know this turned out
2:21
really really well so we're returning to the scene of the crime with our finished
2:28
cases now they're not not perfect I'll be the first to say that but I can also
2:33
tell you that for a custom finished painted case uh the pricing of the Vesta
2:40
R1 is going to be very very reasonable
2:44
um and the look of it is pretty
2:48
astonishing so here I'm going to be
2:51
unveiling we've actually partially assembled the cases to transport them
2:56
back from the shop in the convenient
3:00
cloth cover that Corsair provides just
3:03
for just such uh scenarios as
3:06
this there we go so that is our painted
3:11
650d you can see we put the side panel latches back on now because of the way
3:17
we mask the cases you see that there's actually a line right here where the
3:22
masking tape was uh was applied so the
3:26
reason we put the line there because I know it looks kind of stupid with the
3:29
case open the reason we put it there was so that through this Gap right here you
3:33
won't be able to see any black running
3:37
through okay so let's go ahead and flip this
3:42
around and so there is the windowed
3:46
side oh yeah the back so the back looks like this the back ended up actually on
3:51
the cases nice and clean where we had our division between painted and not
3:56
painted and then we've got our side panel and then the the grills at the
4:00
front will also be done so that's all of the parts of the cases that will be read
