It was sweet but $1700.00...?
For that amount I could built an entire system, put a set of wheels on my car and take a 3 day trip to Idaho.

It looks like some sort of mid-evil torture device. I wonder how ventilated it is?

Whatever else, you have to admire his skill and perseverance. I love the maple drive bays, I'd like a case all like that.

It looks like a T-1000 unit from Terminator 2 in disguise. Be careful his hands can turn into swords.

Ok, it's been a long time since I last posted my case project. Some newer members may find it interesting!

Not "with the times" now, no plexi windows or light strips, but I'm still proud of the thing!

(from previous topic (http://www.sysopt.com/forum/Forum1/HTML/000575.html) )
Here's a solution to any case problem - if you've the time & patience!

BUILD YOUR OWN!!

A friend and I were both unable to find cases to fit our needs, so built them using whatever case parts we had lying around. We now have rather unique cases - His is an overwide underdesk unit, mounted to underside of desktop on heavy-duty drawer slides. 6 full size external drive bays plus 2 internal. Full MB access with nothing above. Drawer mount slides out w fingertip, no top needed as desk does it.
Mine's completely different. I'm a full tower person, and couldn't find one big enough. Now have double-wide, 16 bay (11 ext, 5 int), dual PS monster. 16"W X16"D X 24"H. Whole thing built into oak cabinet with oak faceplate. Removeable side panels for access, air space between wood and metal to avoid heat problems. Mounted on casters & topped with upholstered cushion. World's most expensive footstool!

...I may have forgotten to mention, he's a welder and my other hobby is woodworking...


...And here's the picture (http://www.geocities.com/SiliconValley/Software/5467/case1l.jpg)

I STILL don't understand why nobody makes wide cases readily available affordably! Double width lets you get the PS completely away from everthing, heat & airflow problems become non-existant, and you've got SO MUCH MORE ROOM!!!
