Thanks chaps. Still not much to show as I'm painting the panels one-by-one and it's taking ages........ paint, sand,paint,sand, spray,spray,spray,sand, polish, polish.......

crack on!
Another small update.
The fan array for the front of the case is done.
Looking pretty sexy I think
Also, the reason this is taking so long is the amount of painting, sanding and polishing that needs doing. I'm not even being very careful with the inside of the case. Still takes ages though.
Here's a shot of what will be the top of the case.
It's not perfect by a long shot, but I'm pretty poor at paintwork and I have a distinct lack of patience
Couldn't resist a quick mock-up. The photo doesn't really do it justice, but I'm so happy with the way it looks so far

Hi all, just a little note to let you know that work is progressing along a a slow but steady rate.
Just have the window-side panel to paint and some tidying up and it'll be done
I have to say, it looks blimmin' gorgeous
Hopefully, I'll have some pics up over the next week or so.

Wow this is absolutely stunning. Keep it up!
So, the case is built
Needs some touching up and a darned good clean but here's some poor quality shots for you.

this case is awesome! I absolutely love it. great job there, wish I had the skills to build something like that
Thanks
Of course you could build something like it. I don't have any skills at all. Compared to most of the builds on here, it's nothing special but I'm still quite please with it

Looking really good. amazed how much better the wood looks painted - was very sceptical when I saw it at first!
