you really want those brackets, right? 
I'm just curious why? If you planning to do a hard tube loop, I doubt that will be possible in the case, even with those brackets.

Yes, I really want these brackets.you really want those brackets, right?
I'm just curious why? If you planning to do a hard tube loop, I doubt that will be possible in the case, even with those brackets.
My reasons :
1. This will simplify the build. Everything is attached to the brackets, at the last stage, just insert the side panels, put the top panel and tighten the 4 screws.
2. Increase the strength (rigidity) of the housing
3. I can assemble a custom loop on hard tubes.
4. I have been painting for 16 years, and I know how paint behaves over time. Enthusiasts like to put and shoot different things many times. elements. If you often install and remove radiators, then over time the surface around the screws can be scratched and peeled off. The case may not look aesthetically pleasing. This won't happen with the brackets - it will always be hidden by the panels.
5. On the brackets you can put radiators 240 mm, on the side bracket you can put HDD 3.5 and other elements
All valid points and doable. It will just increase the cost of the case. How much would it be worth for you to have those brackets? Currently we are in the range of 150 to 170 EUR without additional brackets.
I still need to get the quotes from my anodizing supplier. Should get closer to 200 EUR with the brackets.
Hey @REVOCCASES , I think this may be one of your best executed cases thus far. It has a very no nonsense and clean feeling and looks easy enough to build in. Well done!
If you don't mind me asking, where do you source those extruded corner pieces? I've been looking for something similar but could only find a retailer in the US so far.

Many thanks. Actually I didn't want to go ahead with it because it's a bit too large for my personal taste but I'm glad to see the community seem to like it.
I get the profiles from one of my local suppliers. It's kinda standard here. I can send you some, already cut to length and tapped with M4. You can find the drawings in the resources section (BIG2).
I agree to 200 euros (I will write about the details in the DM). And other consumers can be offered the right to choose
IMO this is pure bliss! If I were to build in this case I would actually get an acrylic side panel to show off the internals, bottom-to-top airflow should be more than sufficient with 2x 280 radiators
For me that's the amazing part of this design.
Panels all drop in / out and could be exchanged for a TG or acrylic.
Distro plate in the front anyone?
Shall I make a aluminum panel with window cutout where you could DIY glue on a piece of thin glass from the inside?
Great! Your ability to make things fast is phenomenal!
I suspect this Deutsche techniker does not have a life
. Better put it this way, his life is basically composed of designing and making cases.

Nah, this is just the result if a "Deutscher Diplom Ingenieur" is stuck in a metal factory far away from home, having 2 hours lunch break every day and no WeChat or Facebook.

Wow that's a nice concept !
I was eyeing BIG2 but this is even better imho so I'm interested.
I have a few question if you don't mind
What are the available anodising colors at your supplier ?
Would it be possible to have sandblasted panel/profiles ?
And just out of curiosity, what would be the dimensions/volume with 240mm rads ?

The case is looking great! Trying to visualize whether the PSU and an FLT120 D5 pump/res can both be mounted next to the motherboard, and not use the back panel mounting location for the PSU. Could a bracket of some kind be attached to the PSU to create a mounting point for the pump/res, like the NR200? I think the layout of that case is similar, except yours has the ideal radiator/custom loop situation.
