Firstly THANKYOU for all the supportive comments very much appreciated :-)
HAHA... i wouldnt have thought Melbournites would need to watercool their pcs its sub zero temps year round there aint it :-P :-P :-P
Things have slowed on the construction due to lack of $$$ and materials...that came to an end today :-)
I purchased the remaining materials required for the completion of the case.
Firstly a visit to Polytech Plastics
and a HUGE thankyou for great deal on the acrylic plexi-->

For the sides of the case Black Tint 10mm thick plex...BIG chunk
of 20mm clear for the watercooled hard drive bays,
6mm solid black for the fan opening surrounds/mesh frames. And lastly 60mm clear tube
for a couple of custom reservoirs for my dual MCP-655 pumps :-)
I also had a squiz about in Bunnings for a suitable handle for the top of the case, came across this-->

It is solid aluminum, i also picked up a couple of stainless steel
30mm long stainless bolts that will go through the Qubelok
frame in the middle of the case and into the ali handle...
Lastly... a new blade for my bandsaw :-) So I'm set to go again.
I decided to hold off on the painting of the case until I
had the doors mounted as holes required for mounting the hinges will need to be drilled.
Hopefully back later tomorrow with a pair of mounted plexi doors ;-)
