I've been thinking about it a lot and I'm not sure if I'm gonna make it so the legs move. I think for stability sake I'll keep the legs stuck to the sides.
For Cooling, I'd like to put one 150mm fan on the bottom. I'll have to think about any others. I'll obviously have the room.
if you put wheels on the legs. You can actually use it to roll the case around. By your own admission, you said it would be on the heavy side. Just make sure to put a balast wight on the bottom to make sure it doesn't tip over when you roll it.
THis guy used a garbage can to build a computer into. Thought this might help you out! You might be able to use some of his ideas to fit the computer into the cooler for your R2 Mod.

damn, that looked cool
I liked the plexi-levels. My case will be a hell of a lot more roomy. Also, do you think I should mount the mobo vertically or horizontally?
horizontally has one advantage I have always liked. YOu don't have to worry as much about the HSF weight damaging your board. When you have a big heavy HSF on a vertical mobo, that is always a possible problem if the system gets jarred too heavily
That, and if this thing has wheels... Horizontal components = easier to control centre of gravity. Which means no topsy turvy mobo inside your case as you move it around.
Cool thanks. The PSU I have is 500 watts. Should I go higher?
a decent 500W psu will be more then enough. regarding the mobo: horizontal is more convinient, but you can have better cooling in a vertical setup
Speaking of which, since I have the space, I'm thinking of just putting a phase change cooling system in the bottom next to the PSU and under the mobo.
