Hey Guys,

Here are some drawings with MS paint about an idea for a cube case I have.

I hope it is clear from the pictures as to what I am referring to. The goodie box is an assortment of random electronical doodads that's gonna be really cool when I get it all put together. The rest of the pics are as labeled.

I am still searching around for a case material. I was planning on using aluminum, but then I thought about two-way acrylic mirrors. This would make for some amazing light effects, but would also be expensive (unless anyone knows where to purchase them cheaply and ships to US).

I guess I just wanna know what you guys think about it: design, structure, or anything. One goal I have in mind is noise-proofing, as this would be an entertainment type system. I know I can purchase rubber grommets, but what else can I do? Would several fans at low RPM's be effective at cooling and produce low noise?
