NMC, No Mas de Cien ( no more than one hundred )

[ArgOs]

this mod was created for another site competition, whit particular rules, like, do not spend more than $ 99 or using only three colors to paint the generic PC case, purple, black and green.
how my English is not very good, you're going to see many photos.
First step: select the generic cabinet, I have several to choose.

everything is dismantled

the rear plate moved toward the middle

cleared for better ventilation

reinforce the structure with aluminum angles

Select another PC front

Cutting Line

At the top of the case draw the letters NMC, rounded at the corners.

I Cut it with the Dremel

the cut cleanly separates

Looks like you're off to a good start. So why are you moving the motherboard tray forward?

I would have liked the insanely deep case.

[ArgOs]

because I need moving the motherboard tray forward, for more free place in backside, be patient

Wow, impressive job with moving the backside towards the center without warping the dimensions. How did you pop out the rivets without denting?

Looks interesting.

A drill works great for that.

[ArgOs]

Thank you all

Looks interesting.

yes, and carefully

Next step for today. I strength-structure in place where will the power supply.
First Court the metal, to pass the power supply

I cut the aluminum angle along, you'll see for what.

then I cut the front to put a 120mm fan.

second to the new front was fitted covers the bays, covered the power button and pinned joints in the bays with putty

I painted it with white spray, two layers and then four layers of purple spray

Heheh, yeah, get rid of those drivebays. Who needs them.
