I have a problem...

[ibrahim11]

Hi, I was making my detritus style open frame mining case and I encountered a problem. Two of the connectors don't fit because the metal tubing is too small. The connector will not go in the 2 1/2 inch metal piece. I am sure that I'm following the guide right. Here's the link to it: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=29729.0

Here's some pictures:

I have. In the picture can't you see that the connector only partially fits because there is already another connector in the tube.

so maybe just trim/cut the connector?

Use the force, brother... and the hammer.

Hmm, I might

You need

As you see frame is too short for two same lenght connectors.

There is no other way.

Cut one more or both a bit.

What else you can do? You can make longer frame

My friend always say that you can do everything with a box of matches.
Maybe you can give a try too

(better just cut...)

It will hold a rig anyway.
