    It's a private joke we have going.

    Lol, nice one Razer, but we'll see who's laughing at the final. Until then, bring on the gratuitous hardware photos.

    Thank you :)



    I am slowly making more progress and hopefully I can make the curved front and top panel tomorrow.

    I am, however, having a little bit of trouble with the drilling. I use a 3.5mm drill bit for the hole, to be tapped M4. I mark off where I want to drill, hit a little dip with a nail, so that it should stay there.

    When I start drilling, the drill bit moves. I am holding the drill 90 degrees (or at least very close to 90) to the surface, but the bit moves to the side or so, like a milling machine.

    Any tips?

    This is the awesomesauce!

    Tips for drilling - make a decent dent with a center punch (a nail wont cut it), and then start drilling slowly. Once you have a decent hole going you can move on to full speed
