It's a matter of taste but in my opinion hardware is nice to look at, even if it's not latest cutting-edge. And Udit's hardware is nice awesome.

I'd choose a windowed case anytime over a non-windowed one.
There's also the advantage that you notice immediately when it's time for cleaning.

Nice job d.d.d. :)

started cutting.



first pass with the wheel


after final pass, one side cut. three more and curves still left.


first curve done, 3 more to go



i could only do the big curves with the dremel, for the small curves i just cut it down across the curve and then filed my way down to perfect.



this is what the screw looks like after painting. only did the head.


edges cleaned and prepped for paint, and painted with high gloss enamel black,



whole thing left to dry


focus on the cut out, its right side up


worked from 4pm till 11 non stop. im realllly tired time for some phood and a well deserved sleep!

took off the masking today morning, paint was okay, but the inner side had burrs and i wasnt satisfied with the top left corner, so i filed the whole thing again. and used a card to take off the burrs and paint edges. time for another lick of paint with a sponge.


unmasked. edges dont look good


Final finishing of the edges. defined the top left corner a bit better.
after filing



gave it a lick of paint with a sponge and wet rag. took an hr for this, i wanted it to be perfect.


left it to dry, while i work on the acrylic.
