Hi everyone,
I´m building a new case from scratch.
The specs are:
Atx form factor
5,25" dvdrw drive on top
Front Psu
One ssd drive
One hdd drve
120mm or 140mm fans
Case materials:
Iron in the case frame
Stainless steel sheet to top and side panels, recovered from an old ice refrigerator
Mahogany and pine wood to replace the "plastics"
Resin to finish
Acrylic to windows
Mesh to cover the fans places
I started with a draw, an idea of a compact atx case, just to have inside the box the hardware it needs to run with some power, just what average people needs, no big deal.
Since my tools are few and limited, mostly hand tools, I toke the reference measures of board, dvd and psu, I also make a design sketch and start over.
First I toke an 8 mm iron bar,to cut bend, drilled a few holes and welded,
Next I used mahogany to make the front frame (it´s resistant wood) and finished with pine,
The top and IO shield made with stainless steel.
Until now all parts are unfinished because as a scratch build something might change in process.
Here some pictures:
