Update

I finished cutting the aluminum panels today, also cut the front openings for radiator, dvd roms and fan before moving on to organizing a removable mobo tray.

IMO the hardest part of making a case would have to be the motherboard tray, I decided not to tackle making one from scratch and thus doing away with copious amounts of swearing LoL... I have used a mobo tray from an AOpen case, nice and strong not flimsy like some of the generic cases, unfortunately though they don't cater for a 120mm fan so i have "redesigned" the tray somewhat-->

I have loosely assembled it with a couple of bolts only for now, I still have to sand and undercoat it ready for painting. I shall cut the rear panel of the case tomorrow and fit the tray into the case, back with an update tomorrow evening :-)
