I've been a long time follower of [Hard]|Forum since i built my first computer. But it wasn't till recently i saw the L3p D3sk (Amazing btw) and it really motivated me to build my first case from scratch.
I've gotten a pretty good chunk of the desk built already but haven't had time to start up a worklog since I've been busy moving into my new house.
I'm settled now so its time to get at it.
Here was the current state as of this morning
I drilled the hole in the back plate for the acrylic tube i will use to route my wires
After cutting it to length i used some frosting spay paint
Skipped a couple steps but here is the tube mounted and under-lit
And Finally with the back panel in place and all the cables run
Next up on the agenda is to completely rebuild the internals. Still rocking the comp i built in 07 so I'm way past due for an upgrade.

Intel Core i7 2600k Sandie Bridge
