    you can get them at any store that sells Dremel stuff. I use the dremel at the lowest possible rpm when i do my etching.

    Here is my left nut and my right arm... now fork over some of the talent!

    That looks awesome!
    I can't wait to see more... Are you gonna uv paint the door and then side light with uv diodes where the door meets flush with the front?? just an Idea...
    -------------------Outer edge case

    _____[]______edge of case front adjacent to optical door
    -------------------- etched door
    (here be dragons)

    the [] is the uv diode siting flush with case and the front cover just closes next to it, allowing the light to dump into the faceplate...
    sorry... bad drawing skillz here...
    But, I hope that you get the idea.

    UPDATE TIME!!

    ive been working on a drivecage some doors and a fan controller the last few days and here are the result of my sweat :)

    First i saw that there was way to much space between the top of the case and the psu so i decided to add 5 3,5 slots for a grand total of 18!!! :) and this is what it looks like.
    [​IMG]

    Then i had a go at my two fancontrollers i had one 6 channel and one 4 channel but i felt that it wouldnt look right with storebought controllers so i made a plexi box to house them. this box will also hide the drivers for my UV ccd and alot of other cables that doesnt need to be visible.
    Heres some pics of the fanbus in place.

    Ive finished the doors that will cover the front. the etched dragon is very difficult to get a good picture of because i couldnt use the flash when i did the plexi just lit up like the sun so theese will have to do they give a hint on what it will look like when its done. I will also add more black plexi to the front to complete the look but that will be in a later update. Heres some pics of the doors held in place with som tape (havent fixed the hinges yet)

    thats all for now ill be back with more in the weeks to come ive got a lot of plexi tubes to bend :D
