After a week, I decided my first project did not qualify to be posted in the PR Gallery (
Find It Here ).

I think this New Case and Design should qualify for the PR Gallery but would like your opinnion if I should post it now or wait (possibly for a long time) for my additions/modifications planned?

The Hardware Specs are the same as my Mini-Itx project, however the materials, sizing and layout is different:

1) I used 1/4 inch "Smoked" Acrylic;
2) I used Acrylic Cement to Bond most of the pieces together;
3) I used Neon Green Rods as visual ehancements;
4) I got rid of the "L" brackets;
5) The bottom of the Mobo and the HD are exposed;
6) I designed it to be easier to remove the components;
7) I fabricated the Floppy and DVD/CD ROM cover as One Piece;
8) I changed the fan layout;
9) I covered the wiring with Clear Flexable Tubing;
10) I cleaned up and hid (even though it's a see thru case) the wiring;
11) I used a Clear Plastic Hinge;
12) The top two pieces are the handles to open the lid.
13) New Dimensions are 13 1/2 x 5 1/4 x 10 1/4

What I want to add/modify (when or if I get the money to do so):

1) Directly above the Floppy an Green Programable LED Display to show temps and specs;
2) Mod the HD with a window (when I get a spare one...just in case);
3) I still want to follow this design and create the box that would contain the LCD Screen and Sony Explode Speakers;
4) Add another CC under the Mobo and HD.

So let me know your opinnions? Good, Bad, Ugly or Indifferent!

Looks amazing. I'd buy the case of ya man. I need to make an acylic case, but I'm too shakey to cut properly with a damn dremel. Beautiful, just beautiful. I'm speachless man.

very awesome case. i wish i had your skillz with plexi. you have to post it.

i like i d say more but i just cant see a need to

Even better than before.

Thanks Guys for the positive feedback! Besides my vote...it's currently 5-0-0-0.

Just posted in the gallery....pic pending approval

looks much nicer....get sum grills...and make a io plate for mobo

EDIT:

btw can u tell me the cost of the materials (only plexy, and all other stuff) to make this kind of thing

im thinking about building a cube case..

wow that case is bad ass dood

Clown....unlike you I won't put my "fins" in the "fans". By not having grills, it makes it easier to pick up.

In regrads to the I/O...I did have one originally, but found it restricted the devices being plugged into it. The plexi is not as thin as the "metal" original ones that comes with the mobo.

I forgot...total cost of Plexi and Rods was under $100.00.
