Bruce Lee Tribute CUSTOM Case (56k Warning)

$50 USD + Shipping

Eh, decided to cut a project short because I'm bored of it

So its all ready for sale...













Theres the custom HDD mounting device which is placed in the 5.25" drive bay area. You can unscrew it if you don't like it there anymore. The required SATA/SATA Power plugs fit through a slot on the back of the drive bay area.

You'll get the actual case and the stock case goodies (assorted screws and mounts, drive bay covers etc.)

Checkout the worklog here: http://forums.techpowerup.com/showthread.php?t=58304

The side panel cut could use some finishing sanding or even a new paint coat... I'm too lazy to do that, don't expect a professional finish on the cut... it looks fine especially when lit and won't cut you unless you try to get yourself cut.

This is the stock case: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16811156053

honestly I have no idea... you can check out the stock pictures on NewEgg for an idea of what you could do with it

oh and also, I forgot to mention that the top panel and the cut out side panel are lined with acoustic sound padding foam from FrozenCpu.com

It'll hold 3, the mesh will have to be modified though and thats fine with me

just let me know how many you want, the stock drive bay covers are also included so if you don't like the mesh on the top 5.25" bays, then you can just simply remove it

Have you listed in on your local craigslist? Maybe you know a friend that likes Bruce Lee? Maybe take an order from somebody before you mod so you know you have a buyer?

BTW - PM me so we can do heatware for the UV Dye.

good idea, craigslist might work out

this was just a fun little project for me

I never did plan to use it myself though, I'm not concerned with a profit or anything since I just want to buy a new case to work on.

and yeah, I'll PM you now
