Greetings.

This is a one-of-a-kind design by IEATFISH that I have the distinct pleasure of building for him.

Materials will be solely acrylic (Black and Smoked), but with some metal/alloy mechanical fasteners as well as some custom hinges.

Here are some renderings that Fish made... really rather impressive, if I may add.

As you can see there are variations that have not yet been decided upon at this time.... I figured that we could just kinda make it up as we go along... ya know... the ol' "wing and a prayer" approach.

I guess I should probably subscribe to this, too...

Wow, I am so excited.

Oh, and about the case feet, I was visualizing it and I think the scarab feet but upside down (smaller side down) and maybe a larger diameter would be slick looking.
