    Hello guys,

    this is not a classic case-mode, I will make changes to one of my favorite projects "ZOROG" which will still find a place on my desk in the form of a computer for entertainment.

    I will totally change the inside and outside of the case, using the same hardware with some minor updates. And this time I thank all the companies that supported my work!

    On the 3D renders below you can see an idea of what it will look like:

    Thank you for watching!

    BR, neSSa :)

    Good stuff, I'm interested to see it come to life. Is this in your home workshop? How much cleanup on the edges is there after using a CNC? And what kind of metal brake do you have access to? (I've been debating if I should get one, or even build one myself...)

    Thanks, yes this is my workshop, but the aluminum was cut on a Laser CNC utility at my friend's. There are not many chips on the edges, but they need to be cleaned and the metal prepared for powder coating.

    I like the metal inlays. I think most of us are programmed to 'metal panel, plastic inlaid window' instead. The change up makes it stick out.
