Yeah, it takes a bit of experience and trial and error to get comfortable with cutting metal. I'm not a big fan of that black tint paint stuff on the window, but the red looks pretty good.

Yeah, the closeup shot on the tint is ugly, but if you aren't looking at it from 6 inches away it looks nice and solid, normally.

And man... if it wasn't for that edging material, that case probably wouldn't be safe to use, lol... it's not very smooth edgewise.

Just get yourself a fine, half-round bastard file and clean up the edges. Then, once you've got all the jaggies taken care of and the edges are straight, finish it up with some sandpaper to make it smooth. Start out with some 400 grit, then move up from there if you are not satisfied.

Yeah, I might do that eventually, but for now I'm letting the edging cover up my mistakes, lol. Hopefully my new sata cables will be there today, so I can install the mobo and the psu, and the hard drives, and see if i need to enlarge the hole in the hard drive cage.

I'm honestly having more fun with my clear case, I can't wait to water cool that guy.

Well, I don't think I"m going to be updating this anytime soon, the timing belt in my contour decided it was high time to give up, and it took out some other bits of pieces with it. Needless to say, I'm gonna have to pay that off before getting the stuff I need for this.

I do have the stuff to clean up my clear case, and a simple water cooling system that I got from one of the members here, hopefully I'll be able to get that taken care of today, at least.
