Ok,... youare right. You do need a steady hand to keep them all the smae size. Or,... you need a steady hand to keep the file perfectly perpendicular to keep them straight:) It's not like have to be super steady to do it, you just need to keep mind of the angle you are filing. When standing over the project while filing it's hard to tell where the file is on angle. Alot of beginners forget this and once they file to the line and then look. Theres a slope that leaves them all different sizes. I noticed that most of the time people file with the handle down to far. Which leaves a slope slanting down from back to front. Now about my hardware,... no, I'm not using it in another case. It's all laid out on my desk:( It's hard but,... good. If I wan tot use the hardware,... I f have to finish this project:) It's motivation:) I still have an unopened half-life 2!!! Can you believe that! Lordy! I havent really played doom, other then the demo. That ran great on the system before all this. Cant imagine how it will run after all this with a nice OC.

Check it out. This was my first mod. I sold it before my project now to get the case I have now,... which is basicalli the same case but not as tall. With the rad housing attached its about the same height. I deleted all of the pics I took of my first case mod awhile ago for some reason. Dont know why. The only pics of it is the ones the guy took for his work log. It's the tall silver lian-li case. I install the window and cut the hole in the window for the badong kit. The Aerogate Gatewatch was mine too. Sold it to him.

Ok,... choose. If you dont like any,... what would you like to see? I was drawing all night trying to figure this out! I went from to plain to crazy tribal like. The tribal didnt go with the case and the plain just flat out sucked. I wanted something either blade looking or better yet structured looking. I like #4. I would like some circles in there but couldnt quite figure out how. #4 doesnt have circles but it looks structured. Also,... with that much cut out,... it would be the material that would be accenting:) Oh got my mothers scroll saw and a slew of blades for it:)

#4 looks sweet, but i think it would be a b#### to cut that and get it perfect, especially for 2 of em, i would go w/ #2 looks sweet as well and it will be easier

I dont think I am going to go with any of them. I need to keep these side things looking kinda like the VFD and LED panels. Simple, with no circle of anything round in them.

Tribal....
To get 2 (or more) exact copies. Use a bit of spray glue (on one side of each) and stick them all together. Then drill and cut like normal. This is a trick that my old man uses when he's cutting out 2 or 3 of the same thing on his Scroll saw (the old man is a master in wood....I look @ his stuff and go wowww!)
It will be thick but go slow and there shouldn't be any problems (alum is soft!)
You had to go put #9 in there....Wow....I'll stick with #4 (no circles, but Curves and straights kinda ties everything together)
