    The project infusion is a Scratch Build case that will be builded from the beginning with different types of materials: Acrylic, Metal and Wood.
    Have a unique shape and design, containing in it a powerful hardware.
    Have a watercooling (Corsair H50) modified for this project.
    The aesthetic is warm hug, with around 183 hours dedicated solely and exclusively to this design.
    These will be the base material will be used:
    Samples of acrylic, acrylic tubes, and sheets of old cases.
