the case I'm using for this mod. Resized Image


stripping down the case.

My initial idea was to trim down the size and weight of the entire case. As you all know the phantom 820 is designed for custom liquid cooling
in mind. As I wont be using custom LCS on this project, I decided to trim down the case to make it smaller and lighter.

Now starting to work on the custom mobo tray.
Resized Image


Instead of throwing away some of the spare panels I've removed from the chassis. I decided to make use of them. This piece will be used to make
a custom fan mount. Instead of designing one from scratch, It will be easier to just modify the existing bracket and use it on the case.

started working on the custom case feet. The original one from the phantom already looks great.
just needed a bit of tweaking. After masking and marking the areas needed.
