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

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
