IT IS COMPLETE!

Or is it?



Anyways, here's what happened.
I've gotten the front door mounted, along with the side window. I'm thinking of how I could mount the PSU, but I'm not getting any brain blasts here (Ha cartoon allusion).
Back wall is still being kept off because I'm still not sure if I want to add another system in or if I want to use the bottom for WCing or something.

Painting has been delayed, but project should be mostly finished next week. Kind of ironic how I don't work on this for the entire school year, but as soon as finals are starting up I get back on it.


Here's the top, it looks pretty good, cable management holes helped.

Here are the cable management holes:

Here's the clusterfudge or wires that are in the bottom. I need to work on wire managing.


As you can see, I've cheated and used metal for HDD mounting. I couldn't find any screws that were the right size for HDD mounting but also were long enough to go through a sheet of 1/8" wood so I suppose that justifies it.
I've also had to increase my standoffs by a good 1/4"+. Now they're almost 1" high. 24-pin wire wouldn't fit under the mobo otherwise.


Anyways, the only things to do are PSU mounting and CD-ROM mounting. I'll probably also need to make a backplate for my GPU and wireless adapter.
