I designed the case in QCad. You can look at the drawing here if you are interested. It's a positive-pressure case with the intakes at the back and the outlet at the top. I made it this way so that no direct source of noise goes to the front, and that convection works with the airflow.
It's made entirely out of plywood. All the woodwork was done in my dad's garage in the USA where he has some big machines and the l33t skillz required
. I then flew the parts back home in a suitcase, glued, grain-filled and painted it. Then I had to put in the metal mobo-tray, cd-bay and some other stuff.
Notice the two Yateloon D12SL's are mounted on silicone cushions and held in place by elastics. The harddrive is suspended. The power cable for the PSU goes to the back panel where I put a socket there that I ripped out another PSU so that I can unplug the PSU without opening the case. You can also see the threaded inserts in the corners for mounting the side panel - I didn't want to use wood screws because I open and close the case quite often.
Notice the expensive "vandal-proof" stainless steel button
. The two holes beside are power and hdd LED's (blue and red respectively), luckily I recessed them a bit, they are very bright! There are also the holes for frontal USB and sound ports, I have the module but need to sort the cabling out when I have some time.
