Hello every one and happy new year!

I wanted to begin 2016 with a new mod, I’m currently working on a InWin DFrame Mini and I want to do something different, I have in mind to cut the case and add some tubes and parts, as you can see from the pictures below.
Let me know what do you think about this project/render wich is not fully finished but I still hope that you will get my idea.
[You can se all photos of my first mod (that was a desk case) and all new mods, albums and all the photos on my official Facebook page (https://www.facebook.com/modderportal/).
Unfortunately I wont' be able to upload all photos because I have to keep updated lots of forums, but if you want you can always go and watch it on my page.]

Very nice idea Philip and interesting looking project.
Are you going to try make the welding spots as even as possible?
