Where do you get a metal folder? i have been looking everywhere and i cant seem to find one.

[TehZUberPwner]

@gamerguy12345 It's called a "metal break" and they range in size from incredibly tiny to freaking huge. The one I have is from the 'tiny' category and is 18" wide. I bought mine at a parts store. I think it was princess auto.

The buttons were from newark.com (part#: 95M9953 & 95M9949)

@ZArFALKBEER:

Yes, black 'plastic' paint was used on the back of the acrylic to give it reflection and depth. Check out the build log for more details. ;)

@liightheaded:

I would have loved to use some aluminium on the back but there just wasn't time.  Version 2 will definitely improve in all areas; whenever I get around to making it. :)

[TheBonaparte666]

fantastic case you have there!

[TehZUberPwner]

@TheGaate Indeed, but that just happens to be the name of the competition. "Mods" were considered anything that was built or modified that wasn't a stock case. :)
