Nice workmanship on that acrilic - especially around the PSU cutout!
I also like the fact that the finger joint is not continous but in two blocks - one each end. Was this deliberate or did you just work inwards and that's what was left over.
Either way - it's this type of sutle detailing that really make a custom case for me.
Keep up the good work

Update!
Right, I told you all that I ran out of batteries yeserday, so I went down to do some work this afternoon, and took some pics..
Here's how it was as of last night...
So anyway, I pulled out my now defunct Hiper Type-R PSU and took it with me to test fit in the PSU port this afternoon
Fits like a glove :thumb: (I'm relieved becuase I was basing the hole distances on an internet diagram :worried
Space is quite tight, but I've quadrouple measured everything and there is enough room for sure in there.. (i'll also be using a slightly bigger PSU)
with the motherboard tray in.. It attaches to the front and rear panels with 8 20mm tabs (4 on each side)
and finally, showing the dimensions..
And last, but not least in the slightest, I need to thank some sponsors!
Firstly, Willie from HWLabs For hooking meup with a special edition Black Ice GT-Stealth 240 radiator. Thanks a lot! :thumb::thumb::thumb:
And Mario from Feser 1 for organising a package full of green water-cooling goodness! Thanks indeed! :rock::thumb:

Looks very nice, i'll be keeping an eye on this thread.
Thanks a lot guys...
Slight probmlem....
I ran out of 8mm acrylic for the res... Soo, I've ordered some more that should arrive tues/wed next week, but seeing as I go home on friday, it'll be quite tight as to when I can finish the resevior....
I want it finished ASAP so that I can leak test it and pressure test it over half-term...
Now all I need is OcUK to send me allthe hardware free as sponsorship! lol
