Hello all,

I currently have a Ncase M1 V4. I will be upgrading my rig soon and wish to get a custom glass panel to show of the internals. I have already asked around for the price of a clear tempered glass and the price is surprisingly cheap. However, I have some questions regarding attaching it.

1. How would you recommend me to black out the boarder of the glass so that I can see the frame of the case? Spray paint? Vinyl? However, I would imagine the underside of vinyl wouldnt look too good.

2. As the glass panel is already quite thick, 5mm. I am trying to find the slimmest possible way for me to find a detachable mount. 3M command tape seems alright tho thicker than just using 3M mounting tape (non detachable).

I have seen online where people 3D print mounts of the glass panel but 3d printing services in my country are extremely expensive. which is why I'd avoid it if possible.


Thank you very much.
