Beautiful build! You must be so pleased with how well it has come out. How did you find drilling out the holes in the mid plate? I quite fancy the R1.0, but not sure about the drilling part.

That looks fantastic really nice colour. I know you have mentioned the cables, are you intending to place cable combs on it? as that would really smarten it up/
