How To Mod Your Xbox 360 Case, Showing My Xbox 360 Custom Cut Out Stone Finish Look.

[drunkerton68127]

I love this post only because it shows how stupid some people are. LOL You use what ever tool you want to saws knives a dremel would probably work best or at least fastest, you could put plexi glass in if you wanted, and for best results on the finish you should go buy some peaces of plastic or find some that are similar to the Xbox and test a few different finishes on those pieces before doing it to your xbox. usually I don't rag on dumb questions but damn you all are stupid.

[magician1337]

song name please?

[xE1x1LuSiOnZz009]

whut about the c threw plastic so nothing falls out

[MOxMOxDAMONSTER]

[404slick]

You can use a half or any other tools you want, I was demonstrating a way to do it without going all out and buying tools

[CoGtag231]

do you have to use a 1/8 drill bit

[lordfranz24]

i'm gonna try and do this but with megan fox on it

[CogZ97]

that looks amazing looks complicated though

[NINGAhax]

does your xbox still work...

[TheZriderz]

does it work

[alecbarron]

what you can also do is use some fiberglass resin and put it on top of that to finish it off.other than that,very nice lil tut and the paint came out great coming from a personal aircraft painter

[dillonr01]

do u just superglue da plexiglass on ??

[xiJTAG]

song pppplllllzzzzzz

[1998craphole]

I always thought the three rings were identified as the 3 rings of death....?? Anyways, still a nice mod tho. How did you do that finish on the faceplate like that??

[jaspuree]

hay do you still got the 3 red rings ,try this one worked for me

you boot the xbox 360 up as you got the 3 red rings then push the sync. and the button for the cd dvd thing at the same time it gona flash fast wait for about 3 minutes and then push the on/off button and then boot it up again..then maybe it works.(sorry for my bad english i come from holland).

[haitiankid09]

Video is Ok BUT MUSIC IS HORIBAL VOTE UP IF U THINK SO TU

[RAM4486]

@haitiankid09 why do you have to hate on Moby like that?

[sizzelinali]

dude taking off the top part of the metal thing thats around your motherboard, will that break anything or no

[KhemikalistDubstep]

Fuck dude... You drilled individual holes to make the panels, you could have just gone and bought a cheap dremel (Rotary Cutting Tool) They are like £15!

[LightningFireFilms]

MOBY!! I love moby!

[adrenlineghost]

how do u get the plexi glass in the without it falling through?

[1xISKETCHIx1]

good but reall bad quality :/

[curley547]

When you cut the top of the case did you take the metal piece out?

[Grindley08]

So when Modding cases... DO YOU NEED to remove the outer Metal on the inside ? ir do you cut that with a cutting blade ? just aint 100% on that only thing stopping me from doing my own atm :P thanks in advance.

[cubemasta43]

@Grindley08 yes you shold remove it i havent done any videos on it but ive seen vidioes on it so YOU ARE SOPOSED TO TAKE THE MEDAL OFF

[TheAm1shHD]

@Grindley08 Same do u remove the metal?

[killdadguss]

@Grindley08 pull the metal off

[jandhaysk8]

@Grindley08 you dont cut the side with the metal on it. you cut the blank side with a couple "bars and pegs" on it.

[ilikepieandangel]

@Grindley08 u can remove it because it serves no purpose, or you can use like a cutting tool ( not a knife ) and cut through it

[229idontgiveafuck]

@Grindley08 im pretty sure you do or else it wouldn't be see-thru now would it...lol

[Peacockmuffin]

@Grindley08 this is a late comment but you rip off the metal part under it. Its easy just pull it off

[decoy125]

see this is bad ass... i want to do something like this to mine but , 1.) im scared lol i dont want to mess it up and be out of 300$ but i got a broken one to start on, but i dont really know how to get around to this :o

[codeman4416]

@decoy125 instead of using your default case on your xbox, go to ebay and but a 10 plain white case. you wont have to take the risk, and if you mess up thats 10$ loss for the experience of trying it.

[Bvzijverden]

How thick is your ''window'' 3mm cause mine is to thick and it bends my hole cover so I can't put it together xD xD

[WindStudios]

@Bvzijverden "and it bends my hole"

Thats what SHE said.

[WavedFireLord]

u forgot 2 cut out a pieaceof plasic/glass to cover the big hole u put in the case

[thisguyisuntraceable]

its red ring of death.

[LightningFireFilms]

MOBY!!!! I LOVE HIS MUSIC!

[iHaCkS100]

wat plastic are u using for the see through part.... is it plastic.. if soo wat plastic nd or did u leave it open ??

[kcrench]

how big of a piece of plexi glass do you need to cover the whole thing??

[djfullclip3ke]

what did u use to putt over tha cut u made plastic or glass what?

[D4ni3lg]

I was looking at themed paints the other day, and i saw stone ones and wondered if they'd work on an xbox. If i ever did another xbox mod i'd probably do that now, seen as yours came out so well. Check out my Mod.

[pizzaboy365]

where yuu get glass for case ?

[MrCustomconsolez]

Sweet, check my custom TMNT xbox out!

[brandyvideos79]

Hey thts cool but with mine I'm cutting it in the shap of an x with green and red lights

Btw I have elite so it will have a really nice finish

[Mr360proGamer]

Nah.. I dont like the end product. It would have been better if he added lights and put a see through cover over the open area so it wasnt exposed.

[asswipercocmaster23]

Dang Thats nice can ya do mine and fix my xbox :)

[wescoolya]

first od all its thermal PAIST NOT GRESE and second of all is three red lights of DEATH NOT DOOM

[OneOfAKind9889]

@wescoolya Technically faggot, its the red ring of death. Hence RROD. If your gonna correct some one with an insult, make sure your right.

[wescoolya]

@OneOfAKind9889 STFU its ither the red ring of death or the RROD its not the red ring of doom and thats what i was trying to prove!

[OneOfAKind9889]

@wescoolya Are you fucking dumb? You just repeated everything that I said in my comment.

[jammy121dodger]

Thanks that really helped

[nnaji10]

@zZIMonsterIZz your an ass take it apart fool

[mpckids5000]

good shit...what colors are u going to put in the box

[darkgaiasonic]

whats the glass

[Dannyparkinzon]

your video.....it is bull shizer. we dont care how you fixed your gay red rings we just want to see the case, u jewish tramp.

[RRacingHolland]

if you take the case of, have you still garantie, if the console is broken can you send it to microsoft!

[andrewsuzukirider]

you can take that metal plate off

[theryguy111]

ruskidavo: its plexi galss or levan i think but u can buy it at like any hardware store

[Reconciliasion]

DId you leave it open or put see through plastic inside? NICE FINISH BTW ;)

[404slick]

@Reconciliasion Thanx, and yes I left it open, I have it in between a shelf so there is minimal room for dust that is why I decided to just leave it as is and not put plexyglass on it.

[thomasgefferson]

may i recomend a dyson core coller and a whisper fan it would be great you can run ur xbox for 4hrs before the heat sync would even begin to get hot i ran 1 for 7 days as a test didnt over heat

[alecbarron]

@404slick if you dont put plexiglass in it it will eventually be full of dust within a year or so O.o i reccomend buying some fiberglass resin and hitting your xbox up with that if you dont want your parts to rust out/dust out ;)

[ruskidavo]

hey wtf is that glass that i see on every xbox where can i get one or can i just leave it open ?

[lillyyoshi123456]

@ruskidavo its acrylic glass. (plexyglass) u can get it at lowes, or homedepot.

[DOWelPolloLoco]

WHERE DID U GET THAT PAINT

[404slick]

@DOWelPolloLoco Home Depot, is stone wood finish with 2 coats of glace

[alecbarron]

@DOWelPolloLoco home depot?lowes?target?WALMART??im sure its not hard to find -.-

[Doughboi418]

Was that plexi glass u used or wat

[jellymnbvcxz]

you should put blue leds in side and a plastick cover

[SuperBrandango]

or he should put plexi glass and smoke the plexi them put leds under it that would look awesome

[outtacontrol44]

freakin sweet

[404slick]

@outtacontrol44  Thank Ya....

[mohanad86us]

this xbox blows

[interscope8]

wats funny is you could sell it for around 200 on ebay :P haha. nice work dude. my disk drive took a shit today and im picking up a new xbox and another busted one to mess around with. i will be trying this!!

[404slick]

@interscope8  Try it its simple, first time trying and it worked pretty good so im sure any one can do it.

[Dezki]

What did you sand with? I can't get get smooth edges with the 360 case for some reason. :/

[FatalWarfare29]

the best way to cut 360 cases is to melt the plastic with a sauldering iron on the cutting line. i have a knife attatchment for my iron that work better the any saw or knife

[Jakey959]

What should i do with the Shiney Metal Lid of the xbox and did you use Plexi-Glass for the Cut-out

[BluWav3]

throw out the metal plate and yes use plexi-glass

[badboy4lifedog]

whats this song called

[codyeddye]

its the red ring of death noob

[PunkyDoughnut]

that music is so annoying!

[745Filipe745]

Whats the music's name?

[megabouncer]

moby-porcelain

[Denzil3264]

how long did it take to make the case?

[ElephantXToast]

Do these modded Xbox 360's work on Xbox LIVE?

[Tmmaann]

They should i mean the mod is just to make it look pretty :)

[bestmage272]

@ElephantXToast

Yeah, all he is doing is modding the case. Not the X Box it self.

[UnProiPhones]

Yes.

[Reconciliasion]

@ElephantXToast yes...

[MeTomRasmussen]

Did you cut that so it didn't overheat.

[IRapeXBL]

yeah, you only need the metal chassis that the motherboard is mounted to.

[MrLilpj117]

HAy dude if you do this won't it voide your warrenty??? because i am pretty sure that once you open it up that you voide your warrenty =p

[ToolshedEd3TF]

@MrLilpj117 yeah it voids the warranty, this is for people who have run out of warranty and so it doesnt matter anymore.

[gamrcreed]

@MrLilpj117 warranty sux ass anyway. and i can fix all problems i cause anyway so who gives a shit???

[YounginfromNYC]

@gamrcreed where did you learn to fix the problems

[gamrcreed]

internet is a wonerful thing :) that and experimenting on my own

[FohammerProductions]

where do you get the clear plastic, how should I secure it, and if I use a glue gun will the glue melt?

[IRapeXBL]

the acrylic, or plexi can be bought at almost any hardware store, and hot glue works fine but double sided tape works better, make sure it is a pad style tape and not like scotch tape.

[lewisbail01]

hey does anyone know the plastice that people use for the "see-throught" cut ouit ???? im willing to sub for the correct answer

[Halosniper128]

its called plexiglass, I used a piece of plastic from one of the awards I got in school that goes between the frame and the picture and it works pretty good. Use double sided tape to hold the plastic onto the case

[TheMitchCasey]

what was the size of your acrylic/plexi glass or perspex cut?

[TheMitchCasey]

where did u buy the window from and is it acrylic or glass

[TheMitchCasey]

u take the plastic plates off the xbox then paint and let it dry daza

[Sebastianxbox360]

its called the three rings of death, duhhh!

[xxNICKAxxBOKER]

did u put plexy glass tocover the holes/desighns

[dl432112311]

If u paint the case without opening it, does it void the warranty?

[kilamin]

no it would just fuck up your xbox even more

[ratking58]

ya im pretty sure

[daza1992]

well case vinyls are aloud i think paint not to sure about that one, plus how can u paint the vents and such without spraying paint inside the console??

[dl432112311]

I meant just the sides of the case, u know, nothing much

[daza1992]

ah right yeah but then you will still have a massive white area on the back tbh i think ur best bet is to either leave it alone or open the case and void the warranty resulting in a complete paint over with best results

[nightfox272]

take the case off and put the chassis with the hardware somewhere else while painting

[Steinz007]

yes. sadly it still does

[dl432112311]

oh, you sure?

[Steinz007]

yes. because if microsoft sees that it is painted they will think that the paint sunk in and broke the chips. just dont do it

[Halosniper128]

or you could just take your case apart, rip out the motherboard, place it on the floor away from carpet, spray the case with spray paint, let it dry, then stick everyhting back together...

[brennanclark21]

serves as a good home for dust not flies

[cybertron71289]

0:40

(6) play for maybe a week before another e74 appears

(7) repeat 1 through 7

[supermanizgay]

how much does thermal grease/paste cost?

when mine breaks i'm not sending it to microsoft, i'll just fix it myself.

plus i voided the warranty by painting it silver.

[Jagerbug]

buy it on ebay i think its fairly cheap

[lolipop4451]

dude u suck .....the colour criousely sucks ....if u were gonnna risk ur x box 360 u should have spent some extra bux on some chrome black spray paint

[GradyRho92]

plexi glass under the cuts?

[404slick]

No Plexy Glass, left it open, serves as a home to some Fly's

[kingsland7895]

isn't that very dodgy?

[supermanizgay]

serves as a vent to protect it from overheating.

fly's don't like the inside of the xbox unless you leave rotting food in there.

[leaf350]

the finish looks more like a kitchen floor to me

[404slick]

Haha, I guess it does, its the only paint at the house, I only used stuff that was laying around the house just to show you can do it without buying any tools.

Thanx for posting

[tenmanlover]

awesome whats the song?

[404slick]

Someone asked this question a while back, look through my comments im sure you will find it..

[killer4uman]

if u wanna know more about modding cases find a guy on youtube called mawdmaster he mods computer cases but the idea is the same. he is great. also try not to use a drill rather a dremmel or a saw

[urfuckindad1]

[killall217]

[asagoren]

wtf you cut it with a driller???!!

[rafita289]

when are u putting the glass???????

[notimeforthisshitttt]

you dont need glass but if you do you can hold it in with almost anything you want glue tape screws

[hopygopy33]

if you get the red rings and you have too send it in will they fix it even if its painted?

[hockeyguy10101010]

not if you opened up your xbox, it voids the warranty so you would have to pay for them to fix it

[HQA0]

no if its been opened they wont even touch it for 1 million

[hockeyguy10101010]

for real ?

thats reallly bogus

[1llest03]

... for 1 million ... they're stupid then ...

[ch3apsh0ty0u]

no.

[WantedKi1ler]

if u want a blue xbox wat paint do u use

[404slick]

Use 2 coats of Primer, 2 coats of KRYLON Blue Paint and 1 or 2 coats of Glase finish for that Glossy look.

That should do the trick

[SNAPPSTAR]

YOU DIDNT SHOW HOW TO PUT THE GLASS IN.

[404slick]

I left the whole open my friend, I should be putting the glass in in a few days.

[xbox360hacks]

hey i drilled the stuff out but whad u use to sand it like a electric sander or a hand sander or what?thanks and great stuff by the way 5 stars!!!!!!

[404slick]

I used a Hand Sander, or you know what use one of those File units, they are metal and very course so it works best.

Thanx for posting

[unreaaal]

out on the holes plexiglass and LEDs and will be the shit :)

[404slick]

Yea that would be nice, just haven't had the chance to do it, but Will soon and post it up here my friend.

[Bananacider1515]

what is the name of this song

[dominos121212]

do i have to put plexiglass in the inside of my xbox wen making the window

[404slick]

No, if you don't want to no, but if you have little rugrats running around they might stick their finger inside and mess something up, so just leave it like that, it gets a bit dusty that is all.

[JNR192]

name of the song please :D

nice video dude

[paintballer590]

Hey, nice mod! I modded my 360 also. You can check it out on my blog: modandreview(.)com I have pics of my modded xbox and computer

[404slick]

Nice Mod my friend,

Thanx for posting

[Shah735]

When You Cut Your Xbox Case, And Want To Attach the Clear Plexiglass Do You Just Stick it Underneath Or Cut Another Peice out Of The Plexiglass Which Is Identical To The Original Cut Out? And What Did You Use to Attach it? Will High Contact Adhesive Work?

[danielgooison9792]

the best thing to use is hot glue from a glue gun to attatch the piece to the inside of the xbox, just make sure the plexiglass is a little bigger than the hole so you cant see the glue from the outside.

[Shah735]

thanx for the reply

wish me look with my project

ive orderd my plexiglass from the internet should be coming in a few days

i took my xbox to school today to show my teachers about using a drill on it he said the hidges on the back keep it strong and if i cut through them the hole case could snap due to vibration, is this true or is the materials its made out of strong enough?

[varun009]

actually when you cut the plexiglass it just goes underneath the hole and does not have to be identical and to stick it under i would siggest some strong doublesided tape

[birdhouse12244]

you just put it underneath.

you can use 3M permanent tape, buy it at home depot or w/e.

or you can use hot glue.

[tank263]

what is the name of that song

[404slick]

I think someone answer that already, but keep searching my comments the name of the song and artist is mentioned.

[moisen123]

how did you put the plexi glas in answer!
