|
|
Instead of buying a new case (there's really nothing wrong with it) I thought about getting a bigger side panel. But does anyone sell JUST that. I want one thats basicly a window with maybe a little metal on the bottom.
ALSO, what kind of paint would be the best to paint my case with??
Lastly- What kind of tool would you use if you wanted to cut out some metal from the inside?? _________________

This is my case I thought about just buying a case with the panel i like and then either selling the case or giving it away. Ideas?
Most of what i like is less then $40 so it's not like i'd be out of alot _________________

Unless its a fairly common case James I doubt there are replacement panels with windows out there.
You could add a window to your case if you liked, but thats fallen out of style too over the past few years.
For all sorts of modding ideas and other cool cases and stuff like that visit the casemod forums at www.hardforums.com, lots of good discussions, tips, photos and so much more

might check out here--> http://www.directron.com/panel.html
I painted an old case once and just used an all-purpose spray paint and it worked fine for me. (yeah i'll admit at the time i was younger and duplicated the camo paint job from the movie "Hackers" on my tower. hEh)
and the best tool to use to cut out your own design is a Dremel drill. Doesnt leave sharp edges and its easy to use. There are a bunch of tutorial sites out thereif you do some searching. _________________

Now I sit here and wonder....what does walnuts smell like after a month in water. are they nutty smelling....moldey smelling, water smelling, or old james smelling???
Ok wondered enough, I'm off to buy a bag of walnuts. Should I get the whole in shell, half out of the shell or pieces? should I soak just the shells and consume the walnut meat? Damn this is so confusing
