Cool! Hey man, don't be ashamed if this project doesn't come out the way you intend it to. The best part about this being the 1st scratch case build is that its a learning experience and you'll realize tips and tricks to do so when the second time comes around you'll know what to do and what not to do. I've got my plexi and my mounting hardware for my case that will house a pc, a modchipped Xbox and a 7" widescreen, I just don't have any precision tools yet to pull off perfectly cut square pieces.
Keep the updates coming!
