Right up there with the very best I've seem. But to me personally, more appealing.

Wow.

That case is really something. If I had the time and money, I'd have a go at making one. But alas, I have neither. Instead, I'm going to dreamingly stare at this case, hoping that maybe one day, it will be mine.

Wow! That's incredible. I've waited ages to see wood used well with a PC, and this is brilliant.

If you want to do this, I'd start with this case: http://www.chiefvalue.com/app/produc...tem=11-148-027
http://i2.photobucket.com/albums/y40.../Clearcase.jpg
It's the thickest construction I have seen in a clear case. It also is does not need the side pannels for structure.
