because I want the mesh to be flush with the outside of the case, if I achieve that it will be flush with both sides

I HAVE THOSE SAME SNIPS!
came in a pack of three? All yellow handles? And it was a PITA to open the friggin' plastic it came in?

I hope you know how hard it is to get a perfect circle in metal, especially perforated metal.
Good luck

stupid forum errors saying I haven't posted yet... They lied!

I see what you mean. You could take a 6"x6" piece of wood, cut the hole in the wood. Clamp the mesh between the wood with the hole and another 6x6 piece flat and just use it to guide you. Real easy since you cant use a starter hole.

Lookin' good there CR.

Hahaha...@ little jars (no dissin' dere)... I just got a kick out of it: I was all, "Oh look! CR got little jars of nitroglycerin! Sweet". Really... for some reason nitro is what came to mind - lol.

Regardless of the pyro-side of me, kudos to you for conserving and re-using.

This is a fantastic mod.

I don't really understand what the purpose of the bottles is... The application of what fluid? What is the fluid used for? *scratches head*

He's using it to store and apply the tapping oil (for thread tapping) rather than repeatedly using disposable cups and q-tips.

Tapping oil for thread tapping? I don't understand. Tapping what? What threads? lol Sorry but I'm pretty lost here.

When you drill a hole, and you need it threaded (for a bolt) you use a thread-tap. It essentially cuts the threads into the hole so a bolt will fit. It is high friction and goes better when used with oil (thread tap oil). He is using the tap to thread holes in the aluminum bars for standoffs/etc to screw into.

Does that clear it up?
