I'll be keeping the MT5 and 6 as separate but related cases.Also, I finally got my first case parts! The bezel for the GPU side and the two motherboard mounting pieces. These parts came out spot on accurate, accounting for the minor imperfections inherent with 3D printing.However, the motherboard mounts made in ABS plastic have an even more refined look due to using a different filament. Compared to HTPLA, the ABS parts came out more smoothed out and a more matte finish. Wish it were possible to print the large bezel with ABS but HTPLA still feels very sturdy and durable with the 6mm minimum bezel thickness.The only setbacks I found have to do with my own minor design errors. GPU mounting bracket hole is 1.5mm too narrow for the angled bracket, and one side of the mobo mounts runs into the screw holder in the back corner. I'll have to file off some of the plastic to get those parts to fit.
