    Ive started on the panels there the same as the ones ive got in the case now but newer alu and carylic panels then they will be covered in vinyl.
    This build will be a bit of a slow start as i am still waiting on a few bits to arrive.

    New floor panels using acrylic alu plate and angle

    Judging by your previous builds I would say this is going to be another top build.

    The fist bit looks superb already.:thumb:

    Skull, any ideas to make another piece of acrylic and use it for the entire front panel? So the Aquatube and rad etc are all bolted onto the same bit?
