    stop winging nuts... You will get overrun by squirrles...

    You could always use heavy duty velcro to hold on those black pieces.... and it will also give some clearance for the screws...

    This is one bada$$ case!!

    The freehand drawings and etching are sooo SWEET looking!!!

    Can't wait to see more...please keep us posted.

    **Concerning the 12 hard drives... I was just talking to my boss (IT Manager) a couple weeks ago about setting up a storage unit with 2-3 terabytes for the college i work for. He thought it would be a great idea too, though he would like me to come up with a plan of sorts. Especially since he doesn't want to spend too much money on it. I'll keep watch on your project to see how i might be able to do this for them (the college) in the future. Thanks!!

    Again....YOU ROCK!!! :rock:

    Nice! I also dig the Spidey/Wolverine case. However, as a hardcore fan I must point out that Wolverine only has three claws, not four. Sorry, i'm picky I know. But nonetheless. Super craftsmanship!!!

    UPDATE!!
    its time for more pictures :)

    I just finished the Mainboard mountingplate. My original thought was simply to hav a square plexiplate to mount the mainboard on but as i thought about it that seemed to be a bit on the ordinary side so i came up with the idea of a shaped plate i used the rightside panel from my old Sunbeam case as it already had the fittings for the mainboard. I had previously engraved a demon on the side and thought it would be a waste not to use it so i did :) First i marked out the size that i needed and found that the demon was sticking out all over the place so i decided to cut along the outline of it.

    [​IMG]

    And since i had a brand new can of transparent uv color i just had to go nuts with it :) And this is what it will look like with the Uv ccd turned on.

    [​IMG]

    Thats it for this small update, ill be posting more pictures soon :D

    O!! M!! G!!!!

    This is one very sweet case. Your artwork is simply fantastic! The idea of filling the engraving with uv paint is a very thought invoking one... hmmm... :idea: I may have to implement this into my plans somehow. I am currently designing an acrylic case. Should be an actual project in the near future, pending the proper funds are available. I just hope that it will come out as well as yours is. Just a quick question though.. Have you experienced any problems or anything while working with the acrylic?

    oh yeah almost forgot..... :thumb: :thumb: :thumb:

    Wicked Sick! :rock: :rock: :rock: This is just totaly mind blowing. Definately gives me inspiration for one of my soon-to-come-into-realisation projects (huge retro tower converted to mostly plexi with a laptop spliced into the mix....). Where did you buy the uv paint?
