Excellent find, could use that on the case I've got my dual piii in right now...about to cut the front bezel cover to free up some airflow to the 4 80mm fans that are behind it... try to make it not look like a hack job, but I don't have a dremel...(too poor)...

I don't have a Home Depot in my area i wonder if Lowe's has the same stuff. Also i was wondering would that mesh work good between fan grill and fan itself.Or would it be better just to buy them already made. Like these i manly want it for protection because i am using these fan grills fficeffice" />

I think it would work ok, also im SURE they have it at lowe's too, if i was you though i'd take one grill with you to see cause this stuff is a bit thick so it will make the grill stand off more

its called expaned metal because of the way it is made (cut slits and then it is stretched so the slits become holes)

If you look at this image from the Splitter case I did, I used the black gutter guard for replacement over the fans.
