The hex and triangular formation would be a nice idea to try out, I'll put a render together.I would need to speak to the laser company, but my concern with having many little holes is the machine time it would take to laser them all out and removing them afterwards, and the impact it will have on panel prices. I imagine that larger slots will take less time.With a metal stamped part the holes are punched out in a single operation once you've made the tool, so I guess vent pattern prices won't change much.I have some questions regarding volume calculation:1) do you have to include the clearance under the case for the feet in the overall volume?2) As the corners of this case are chamfered/angled, can I detract this volume from the case? Or are you only allowed to use a flat 6 sided bounding box to calculate volume?
