The cool part about this case is the only actual piece of metal is the I/O shield other than that every thing is held in by hot glue and shishkabob sticks.


Thanks for all the positive feedback!

Holy hell, nice job! I guess you don't have to worry about cooling problems. My only concern is the hard drive. The stilts it stands/supported on looks precarious!

Trav, that's very creative, but you're going to burn your house down with that bloody thing! (If you were to spray all the surfaces with contact cement and cover them with tin foil, would it become an aluminum case?)
