What mods can I do to an Antec 300?

fozzybear · 27 Nov 2008 at 14:42

I'm bored and feel like messing around with my Antec 300 case that is sitting doing nothing except wait for some innards.

I thought of doing the Manchester United badge on the side using a dremel or similar. Then lighting it with a red led fan.

The idea is there but I havn't got a clue how to start something like that without it looking amateur.

Any hints?

I forgot to add. The Antec 300 is touching 50 quid on OcUK now. I got it at the right time 3 weeks ago when it was £38 delivered.

Practise on spare acrylic/metal before doing the proper thing

where the name is at the bottom under the fans, cut that bit out and put a slimline CD/DVD drive in there

How ambitious is my idea of doing the Manchester United crest on the side of the case?

I've never done anything like this before. I'm not sure how i'd the colour scheme of red and yellow in as well. I fear it may seem a good idea on paper but the end result might be ineffective.

quite tacky tbh

but if you think you could do it and would like the design go ahead and do it

Maybe do a Gillingham fc one instead?

Got it for £29

anyway, you could maybe make a window and laser etch the footy badge. and light it up with red cathodes..
