The Idea.
By now you have already read Sirrobin4ever's article on simple case modding, today we go about 10 steps further and jump off a cliff.
This is for those of us with more time and perhaps a little bit more money to spare.
This mod goes all out; sanding, dremeling, painting, water-cutting, power switch relocation, even adding aluminum casters and swingback handles for transportation. You should see the look on peoples faces when they see me rolling my case into the LAN building by grabbing onto an integrated handle. The biggest mod was the addition of a CFA-635 display, you will see a review of the CFA-635 coming very soon.
What your about to see will hopefully encourage you to start your own mod project.
A good mod will go nowhere without a theme, so I chose to go dark with an all out black, blue and silver theme. I also wanted to have a symbol to represent the mod at hand and chose to integrate a graffiti version of the Japanese Kanji symbol for dream.
A quick sketch using Google Sketch-up helped me envision my direction.
