Hello OCN, this is my first case mod.

I will keep this project updated on the first couple posts

Update 12/17/2007

For my next plan, I will use this tool:

Update 12/18/2007

Getting ready to paint

First coat

I still want to add some handles on the top, and I have to do some work in order to get a 120mm red LED fan on it. Also, I am planning on painting some of my optical drives. Basically I'll see what happens as I go.

Thanks

That's great to hear! I can't wait to see how this turns out. ...And living in the Phoenix area, I liked the title from the get-go!

...Anyways. Looking great! Be cool if you could get some custom shapes goin' on there with some bondo (equivalent). The front bezel on that case has a cool look to it, be nice to spice it up. Good work so far.
