I’ve done a lot of work on my case lately, so I thought I’d make it easy for you to find out what has been going on.

  1. First of all, if you are a little confused about what I am talking about – Here is the original plan for my case.
  2. Then I got hold of the case I’ll be working on.
  3. Next I cut a window into on of the side panels.
  4. I started working on a piece of acrylic.
  5. I did not enjoy altering my front panel with fibreglass. Not one bit.
  6. I got hold of a blowtorch.
  7. I bought some new acrylic and had to make another set of flames out of it.
  8. Then I ended up using more fibreglass to make space for my radiator in the top panel.
  9. And most recently I did some work on the front panel.

As you can see I still have a lot to do – I need to get all the metal work drilled, primed and painted, and I still have several acrylic pieces to cut. To make matters even better, the motor in my not-a-Dremel just burned out – I think I can return it under warranty, but that will still take time.

I’ll keep you updated as the mod progresses, but since I’m going to be away from my flat for a couple of weeks I don’t know how much I’ll get done. Hopefully the case will be painted before then so it has some time to cure.
