    Don't be fooled the aluminum is actually extremely sturdy despite its thin walls a thicker piece of angle is fixed behind each piece to allow counter sink screw to set and hold the angles together.

    Curious to see how you work with those overlapping corners

    Longer way would have been a mitered square for the top then a small piece of angle in the corners with a bit poking out to hold to top piece to the bottom piece, if that makes sense...

    Looks like its going to be an awesome case :) i watch
