Update in original post. Design coming together well. Made it wider by 5mm. Now just about 12L
Prototype Not a sandwich case

I like the name monolith, but I believe other cases have taken that name. Perhaps a different spelling? Or The Totem (Because it has wood)

I have come up with one I really like. The Knarr. Or alternatively Knörr. After a small viking cargo ship. I figured liquid cooling, water, wood... And it sounds cool too
I like it I too was trying to kind of some kind of ship theme. (great minds think alike, my friend!) But didn't think of any quite fitting. Also thought of involving "XII" (Roman numerals for 12) in some kind of name, but hadn't yet come up with anything worth while.
Menhir came up as a synonym to monolith, which means literally "tall stone", and it's a cool name, but didn't seem fitting since it isn't stone. So I thought of totem pole thus the suggestion for totem(although, honestly, I didn't think that even to be fitting, but worthy of a suggestion at least).

I quite like totem as a name. But I don't want to use it on this project. The very first one I built years ago (unpublished) shared it's layout with the velka 5. I'm thinking I might revisit that with wood. That would be a totem.
Moved worklog to new thread. Just in case someone here that was curious but didnt see it:

Completed - Knarr: ~12L case with a focus on liquid cooling and aesthetics
Project Knarr This was designed as a liquid cooling oriented case with the capability of supporting a full custom liquid cooling loop, a 240mm radiator, or potentially two 120mm radiators for hybrid cooled GPUs + cpu AIO configurations. This is the update to an existing prototype that you may...
