    @pOPe & 985323 - Yep UV green fluid.
    @b4i7 - Thanks Sean.

    Yeah I cut out everything with the Dremal and cutting disks, boy do I mean everything lol. I cot it as close to the lines as possible before using a file to remove the rough edges. Took me about 1 hour to cut, 30 mins to clean up and another 30 mins to prime, paint and mount.

    Thanks for the comments guys, I really appreciate it.

    Have to agree with the others, your mesh faceplate looks excellent. Really catches the eye. +rep

    Thanks blue. I thought the plain clear plastic just looked dull and boring. A solid mass of colour wouldn't go with the theme. I actually contemplated replacing the front piece of plexi with a smoked black piece or even painting on a design. The mesh suited my needs best cos I have tons of it lol.

    Thanks for the comment and the +rep

    Thanks blue, you just gave me my third light green rep bar.

    I've been following this project since you mentioned the 4200ti. I have got to say, that this is one of THE best cases I've seen on this site. It's a shame I'll never get to see it in the flesh (a long long long... way for me to go XD).

    If it looks that good in the photos, imagine what it would look like in the flesh!!!

    When are you hoping to have this finished by? Christmas? I understand that there has been a massive amount of time effort and dedication to this project, and I hope it turns out the way you want it to.

    Don't rush it (DF will hate me for that) because you might find that you miss something. The amount of time you've spent on it so far, you might as well get it 100% perfect. Personally, if I spent over a year working on a mod, I woulden't waste it by making the case look 95% of the look you were after.

    EDIT: Added rep+ in recognition of your hard work, considering that you haven't let up on your schoolwork.

    Thank you all very much guys. Your support really means a lot to me.

    I go back to school tomorrow kicking off the last 11 days of high school FOR EVER (before exams). I doubt I will get you an update before then but I hope I will have a chance to work on her a bit more. Once my mate gives me back my Dremel I can finish the RAM cooler and perhaps sometime this week I will paint the fans (it's meant to be warm). After than I have only the CCFL cables to solder up, make 1 (YAY) more mesh cover and then install.

    She has taken me a long time to make I know (about 14-15 months now I think), the idea and vision was constantly changing but now I can see the light at the end of the tunnel. Christmas is my maximum deadline. She will definably be finished well before then.

    Once again thanks for all your ongoing support. If you have any questions about something I have made/modded feel free to post em up and I will try to answer them to the best of my ability.
