    It looks really amazing! My father is a watchmaker (like Sylar/Gabriel in Heroes) so I can really identify to gears and whatnot. Also reminds me of Seam Boy, the Hollywood-priced Anime.

    This is amazing.

    Once it is finished I hope there will be a full article up on tech to read.

    If the cogs and gears actually still worked, I'd be impressed.

    I'm just impressed he even got a hold of them...let alone used them in a PC case mod!

    Truly amazing piece of machinery to look at! I love all the functional guages, but the optical drives stick out like a sore thumb amongst all the wood and brass. He needs to stealth them with some brass cover plates or a spring-loaded flapper door or something.

    Yeah my thoughts exactly! Besides that, all that stuff with the most ugliest part being the optical drives...

    Dana has said that the optical drives are yet to be 'punked'. Bit-tech will have a full feature in the not too distant so watch this space!

    Maybe I'm too cynical, but sticking a computer inside a wooden box doesn't exactly get me all excited. He could just through a sheet over it and call it a "ghost mod".

    Isn't all case modding just making the coolest box you can and sticking a computer inside it?
