The computer used by the hero was a " IMSAI 8080 " from 1975

This first Personnel Computer is so cool and ugly! I just hade to make one as a casemod for my PC!
So I started manufacture my own with what I got at home. Wood, Plexiglas, Tin, Paint, LEDs, and cables and lots of glue ;)
The size is measured after the original imsai8080.
This is the result
