Tell everyone what project you are working on. Whats the latest modding news for you. Post a picture of your mod in progress or your thoughts and ideas on a mod. Maybe someone can throw some pointers.
BTW, I don't have any projects right now, as I am in Australia, but when I return to the states, I will be working on m mobile mac, as I call it. It will be a mac in my car with a touch screen control for video and music playback. Any ideas?
Cheers.

I don't have any mod in progress now either. I'm in NYC for the month. I do, however, have an extra iBook SE (Graphite clamshell) that is begging to have something done to it
I just need to figure out what to do with it... :-/
I'm currently taking apart an All-In-One G3 "Tooth" mac. I hope to figure out what kind of mod will be suitable for it based on what I find underneath.
My current project is about as exciting as watching paint dry...
A friend gave me an old Genius 10Base-T network hub which was originally in a fashoinable shade of biege. Not being one to accept these kinds of things I am painting it gloss white to match my ibook. I'm currently about half way through although it wil need a few more coats (hopefully tomorrow will be a nicer day so I can paint!).
MarMightyGood, I hope you are documenting this so that you can post a mod guide. I would be nice to see how it is done for other devices as well. Cheers...

I've heard of people putting Christmas tree lights under the translucent bit
That one is currently on break until I find some more time for assembly, which will probably be minutes after I figure out how to mount the parts and make the structure a little more stable.
The other long term project is a wearable mac, but that one is really waiting on a computer I think is usable, then finding input devices and power for it. But that one's been a work in progress for nearly 3 years so I don't know if it will be done anytime soon.
I have been documenting my progress, unfortunately I don't think it will turn out as well as I had hoped. My final coat of paint was a bit thick and so there are some drips . Thats why I'm practising on a bit of free gear tho!

my project is to take a terry cloth to the apple logo i had to sand all of the scratches out of. after that, then i am tempted to lay new tape behind the panel on a g3 b&w to say something else, like g 3.5, or whitlock. something along those lines. also, trying to let my roomate let me borrow his canon 10d so i can take very nice, clear shots of the g3 processor upgrade, with a twist that can save a few bucks + a trip to radio shack. those are all of mine at the moment, will keep updated though.
