PC Security
Step 1: Remove the cover of your PC and create forms, using scrap wood that you may have. If you don’t have wood, sheet plastic or heavy cardboard may do the trick. It must be able to support the weight of the concrete when it’s poured. If you have nothing to create forms with, use a saw to cut studs out of the walls of your home. They should work well. If you don’t own your home, ask your neighbor if you may cut some out of his. You may wish to give the forms a light coat of oil to make removal easier, once the concrete is hard.
Step 2: After your forms are in place, pour the concrete mix into a large container and add the appropriate amount of water. Concrete should be mixed to a thick consistency, without dry or powdery spots. If the mix is too watered down, it will run out of every little crack in the computer case and will not harden properly. Use a shovel to fill the case with concrete and work the concrete into place using your hands and/or a large screwdriver. Try to level the concrete, but keep it clear of screw holes or any place where the cover will mate with the chassis.
Step 3: Allow adequate time to cure and remove the forms. I allow about 8 hours to pass before removing the forms and about 24 hours before moving the PC.
Step 4: Once the forms are removed, the computer should be one big block of concrete on the inside. Replace the cover and wipe the PC down with a damp cloth to remove any concrete that may have run out of the case.
Step 5: When complete, this PC weighed approximately one-hundred-ten pounds. I left this computer in front of my home for a week and it was not stolen! Just imagine how secure it would be in your home! Sure, the computer may no longer function, but rest-assured that it won’t be stolen! …I would, also, recommend not ever plugging it back in!
