I have been thinking about building my self a really cool case for my computer and I'd like some opinions on the best place to start. Basically what I want to do is find a good case that I can us as a foundation and then remove all of the external stuff (the sides, top and bottom ). Then I want to create some fancy outer dressing for it using wood panels and possibly inlay some hand tooled leather. This is a summer project so I have plenty of time to do this. At the moment I haven't planned anything specific for the design because it will be somewhat dependent on what foundation I build upon.
This will be my first attempt at building my own case so any help is appreciated.
Does anyone know where I can find case parts that I can use to design my own build or will I have to acquire a good case and then gut it just so that I can use the innards?
