    or you could do 2 keylocks on both sides so you can have it where you have to turn them at the same time. Like military style :)

    Also, for the reservoir here is what i envisioned. You can get some 1/2 inch diameter acrylic rod, and then you can get some aquarium airline tubing (you can get it colored) and gluing it to the acrylic rod to give it rigidity. Then you jsut slide the spirals inside a tube of acrylic, and viola!
    I whiped this up in flash as a visual aid, its rather crude, but it helps.

    I hate describing things to people, i walways ahve to make a visual aid, even with isntant message conversation.

    But yeah, i think that would be an attractive and effective way to make the spiral. Plus you could slam an LED into the center of the rod, and frost the area right behind the tube that you spiral, and the light will come out behind the tube, that would be awesome!

    or you could make the clawmarks on the metal and pull the edges out a bit and ad a little rust to the edges. I also like the persons idea of the blood spatter, thats cool. A grid of lasers would be nice, but i dono if you can pull it off. You could etch a grid shape into the plexi and use red leds or if your feeling extra special, use a couple actual lasers, and get a lense to spread the beam out, so the etch will have that grainyness that lasers have :). Im excited jsut saying this, i wish i had the means to do so... :(

    just go to a local glass merchant... CAD up your designs on a cad package.. have him make the tubes from glass then use your school tools to make the metal ends.. surelly you have cnc milling machines and lathes etc at your school?

    if u were really 'ub3r 1337' you could go to a card printing service then have them make up a card with a magnetic strip like the one u posted but with a magnet on the back you could then get a w8 dont quote me on this because im not Too gr8 at electronics but you could get a pic which reads magnetic strips you could have a magnetic strip interface where you swipe the card and then u cud make umbrella login cards where u swipe it to turn the pc on and off have it so it delays for 5 seconds so it stays on using the pic to open a logic gate for a while i cant be bothered to work out the theory behind it right now but would definetly be original and a cool idea.. or if u wanna go for a simpler idea.. you could have them make you a card with just a small magnet built in u cud then use a reed switch embedded into your case to act as a power switch
