Though I think a Lian Li mobo tray would look better, but I guess its just personal preference (I like the brushed aluminum look).

Thanks Papa.Smurf, yes would definitely look better if one can get a hold of one for free!!

are you heating the inside of the bend, or the outside
also what length was the the heated area (left to right)
also in thickness of acrylic, can you give that to me in inches and not mm?
thanks

The thickness of Plexi was 3 mm = 0.118 110 236 22 inch
Also 6mm = 0.236 220 472 44 inch ( Approx 1/4")

The HDD cage and DVD Cage was about the Size of a DVD Drive ( 11inch x 4 3/4 inch)

The Main Frame 6mm = 0.236 220 472 44 inch ( Approx 1/4") Plexi
x 500 mm x 400mm (500 millimeter = 19.685 039 37 inch x 400 millimeter = 15.748 031 496 inch)

Bends Heated area Main Frame Left to Right 15.748 031 496 inch

Hope that Helps, CR

1/4" Acrylic I heated both sides, but more so to the Top side, tested with finger underneath, when could feel the heat transfer from top the heated bottom , then kept heat going back and forth on top while bending.
