Well after a long wait and a sig that's said 'coming soon' for far to long I've finally started.
Still have a few item on their way but most of it's here
but more on that later.
First off a photo's
This is the teaser I post some time back - basic mock up of my early idea (moved on a bit since then)
The plan (typing it up I just realised what I've set myself - should keep me busy for a few weekends
)

Oh might do some cable tiding/braiding/all that jazz - just to keep it neat and thread worthy
Here's my Abit IP35pro up and running in the GMC R2-toast (silly name but more on that later)
Close up showing that case is only just wider than a ATX mobo.
Replace ment P45 mobo - Asus P5Q (smaller width is a bonus) It's early days with this board so I'll add more when I get to the OCing sections.
Extra space - and I know just what to do with it
