Yes I am really goin to mod an emachine case. I have ordered the new parts for it as well. But I need advice on cutting the door I am doing an xbox theme and i need to cut ans x out what tool should i use?

Uh......a Dremel.......??

Hrmmm, I was going to say a screwdriver + 5 lb sledgehammer, or perhaps an X template and a plasma cutter.



But I suppose a dremel would work as well.....

Generally speaking, the preferred method of doing window cutouts is a dremel and reinforced cutting discs (they last a lot longer than the normal discs), and small files/sandpaper to clean up the edges. If you want to cut a circular hole, another viable tool is a holesaw that's designed for use on metal (a holesaw is a drillbit that's designed to cut large diameter holes in materials). I'm also fond of a metal nibbler as long as the metal isn't steel/too thick (a nibbler is sort of like a pair of pliers in use...everytime you squeeze the handles, it makes a square-rectangular cut in the material...removes between 1/8" to 1/4" material with each snip).

Nibbler (i purchased mine from a local computer shop...just posted the link so you would have an idea of what i was talking about

There's also a version that you can attach to a drill to automate the process.
