    UPDATE:

    Started to fold all the main structural panels of the case.

    This is the base panel that will hold two of the three (360) rads in the build

    Test fold

    The top panel will serve as cable management to hide all the
    shoddy cables and hopefully make for a clean look

    I machined the ADAMAS logo into the top corner and scotch brite'd it back.

    I have some more panels folded but will update the log with those soon.

    Having seen a tad more than this I can honestly say this is going to be absolutely amazing.

    I am so looking forward to how this project will look all finished.

    Good luck buddy!
