Hey there guys,

Im back again with another mod, This is Midnight sparkle that i am doing for my girlfriends new computer.

as usual its a scratch build.

Here is the initial design which changes a bit as you will see very soon(im not doing another version you can see in the pics)

I started off this long day of modding by clearing stuff a bit so that i have room to mod again

And on with the modding

(sorry for the blurry pic...)
I started by cutting apart my old case to give me a mobo tray and a template for the psu.

mobo tray cut down

and even more

psu template

I then cut the 2 bits of alu that i need for the main body of the mod

and bent the longer bit to shape

here it is with the side panel sitting on it

and mounted

front and back marked out

and cut

back marked for cutting

cut

mobo tray mounted

Window cut

and filed

and mounted back on the case

Acrylic for the window marked ready for cutting

and placed on the outside of the case

i then marked the alu angle ready for cutting into the joints

and cut

I then started work on the case feet

and glued

i didnt get to file, sand and polish them today but i will get that done tomorrow and then i need to order more bolts and get some more rivets tomorrow so that i can get this done. this will be one very quick mod butttt i did work on this from about 10:00-18:30 with a 1 hour break in the middle hence why i got a lot done

and just to give you guys some perspective of size this is smaller than the mobo section on modularis

Check in tomorrow

That's sick, it looks like you'll have tons of room behind the mobo to hide PSU cables, or I'm seeing things.

lol quite a bit of room but not much as its quite a small case
