Finaly gotten on with some of it. Took it to the powder coaters today, should get it back end of the week.

Mods done...

Window cut
Shortened drive bays as low as possible
Shortened motherbord tray inline with mobo
Braided front pannel cables
Braided and then plated mains cable (audiophile in me coming out)
Powdercoated matt black
Moved USB from top to the front (might run both)

Left to sort out is pass through for the water cooling hose, pump mounting and decoupling, sleaving power cables (might cheat and buy some) and to decied wether or not to add any fans.

Tools used, hack saw, angle grinder, marker pen, squzze clamp, 3mm drill bit, drill

Just a bunch of images not everything shown will update

Still unsure on how to put this back together. I found some M4x5 button head stainless bolts which would look nice. Use some rivet bush hank nuts to bolt it togther.

Finaly got my pumps on the way so i can then sort out the decoupling and cooling of them.

Going to finish the power cable off today, just a case of strip, heat shrink, solder.

They only problem is the case feet. I've some MNPC tech cnc but the holes in the case are huge. Trying to get them all to line up neatly is not easy and i might have to get creative in some spacer or rubber item in there.

Also need to move the micro res to the side as in my haist i didn't check it clearing the USB ports and it's clashes. Im now going for a dual top so cleaner lines work with it being moved over.

I think i'd found where i'm going to mount my SSD, hiden out the way giving more space and cleaner lines but if you look for it you can see it.
 
Small update, i just went ahead and riveted the thing back togther. Found a hiden location to mount my SSD's

Here she is all in matt black powdercoating
