    @GuilleAcoustic - Oh, you totally should do a Nautilus theme.:D
    @kaiser - It's pretty obvious you are using the original model. I'd say Confusis would allow a chop. Feel free to continue with what you were doing.
    @xtrafresh - YOU on the other hand!:lol: Go download jrs77's Coolermaster HAF model.
    @Dark - Looks like you have been dipping into Slipperyskip's logs.

    Haven't and won't have much time to work on it, but here's where I'm at so far.

    And yes, I'm using the basic model as SU8 doesn't want to play nicely with my 3D mouse and I'm totally dependant!

    Yay the mighty Cheaps has granted a pardon :)

    Shame I spent a good hour yesterday experimenting with other ideas... I half tempted to take a day off work to crank them all out in Sketchup....

    @HardstylerDK - Like the front, its like the Fractal Design Arc featured on BT yesterday~

    I fear a lot of us are gonna have a similar issue with the sparseness of the interior, its such a whopping huge case this contest might come down to who can think of the most interesting thing to cram into the case.... shotgun built-in fridge!

    @xtra - :lol:
    Do I see this evolving into a 'comical ways to fill a HAF' contest?
    SR2 and Tyan server boards fit easy. You can also put some hefty radiators inside the case, (unlike uncle Cheaps...)
    There's also the option of chopping it to suit your needs. -Which is where I'm going next.
    @Asura - You are officially the slowest now.:D

    I think I was pretty slow last time too... Anyway it all fits, one tall EATX (AteriusGmork's Tyan Thunder) and ten M-ITX motherboards... this case is HUGE!!! So now I can start playing with detailing.

    Think I'll chop it down to a standard EATX and have a second PSU...

    -And lunch is over!:hehe: Don't look directly into the computer.
    That thing wrapped around the front is another radiator. SU was being a ***** and wouldn't let me add details.

    The "Go nuts edition" which i think might be the final one but i still have to think where to put the hard drives.

    There will be one water cooling option:

    I have to agree with JRS.

    Anyway .... this is a mod contest and nothing said that the final use would be as a computer case. I present you my mod : The HAFBECUE or BARB-HAF-UE :hehe:

    EDIT : More seriously, here's where I am :

    Hope we can use custom hardware (custom block, custom rad, etc.)

    @Tarikk - I told you not to look at it too long:hehe:
    @Bill -Outside the brain pan?
    @Guille - Rep'd:lol: You turned it into a Fractal case, (and then a BBQ.):D Feel free to custom part the heck out of it. -That's part of the fun.
    @Danit - Have you seen the new lili's with the hardrive on the case side? There's still a mountain of space behind the 4x120 too.
    @jrs77- Naw, dude. I'd rather have confusis extend the deadline.

    OOp! Totally missed Hardstyler up there...
    You still have a lot of unused space, and where did the frame go? Please tell me you didn't discard it to make room inside.:lol:

    Does this mean that we don't need to keep the frame and just have something the same size? :confused:

    Seeing more recent contributions has made me a bit confused since I thought that the frame needed to be kept and just the front/side/top panels were allowed to be completely exchanged for custom ones.
