    Small aluminium gaming case (~18.5l)

    Hey @blubblob its about 25mm between the PSU and the front radiator (with thinking about connector standing out 2mm). At the back i have about 10mm for the button and the wire, ill go for "hardwired" PSU the cable needs about 6mm so it should be fine. Yes with airflow i have my problems :-/ but...

    Hey guys, have exams at the moment, so it took a while but here a small update. Do you think the ventilation for the front radiator is enough? Its now ~18.5l @EdZ Thanks! I have a friend in the university who is electrical engineer, he should be able to do it then.

    hey guys, another question, is it possible/advisable to route just the electric wire into an sfx psu? I would like to power it from the bottom and have no place for a plug.

    Hey guys here a first sketch of the new design :-) I'll go for another layout with PSU and 120 radiator in the front. I get a much more "tower" look and not that cube like. A bit under 19l. I am planing to go for 2 pieces for the case (top-front and back-bottom). From the frame its pretty close...

    @Aibohphobia at first thanks again for your help! It's a great hint and i think i can solve the "bending machine hit problem" when i go for 2 L outer sheathings one for front and top with little edges to fix them with screws at the back/bottom and another for the back and bottom. I was planning...

    Yes I have seen them but I am away from ball and studs now because I cant find them in germany and I do not want to pay like 50 € just for delivery if the part is like 5$ :-D I will use nice screws for the sidepanel now and the other outer sheathing is screwed at the back so i'll not see them.

    for sure: At the back bottom where u can see the edge i am planning to weld the bended L-profiles together. The 4 "bridges" are welded to the two L-profiles and connect them. The motherboard tray is from one piece and welded too. I hope I could explain it a bit better now.

    Hey, no the dark grey part is the inner frame made of 2 mm aluminium. The outer sheathing (3 mm aluminium) ist just the light grey part. The outer sheathing is open at the back-bottom, so its not a "closed loop" and is screwed to the bottom and back of the frame. Do u think a shop will have...

    Looking forward to see it! @HeroXLazer while u say something about bending, did u think my design will work and is stable enough to hold a glas panel?

    Hey guys, do u think a bend like this will work? I am planning to do this with a 20x20x2 mm aluminium L profile. The outer radius is 7mm. The hole is for a screw like this https://www.ganter-griff.de/de/produkte/2.2-Spannen-Klemmen-mit-Griffen/DIN-464-Hohe-Raendelschrauben-Stahl which holds the...
