...with an old case?
Righto, I was rearanging my desk area today, and I moved my third PC to the area where my games used to be stacked. This means, my games were now misplaced. They weren't going on the floor like the PC was, so I looked around for a storeage solution. Then I noticed an old AT Pentium PC (200mhz!) sitting around, doing fuck all. This gave me an idea...
So, the drive bays were riveted in. So I got a drill, removed them, all the electronics already removed in a flash, and voila, a big, empty case. Unfortunatley, the bottom wasn't quite flat, so in went a bit of cardboard. Its just a shame the side comes off forwards, so I'll probably end up hinging it or somestuff.
Anyway, as it is now, need painting really, as it was an air rifle target for a while (dents hammered out). The Game Case!

Any ideas to make it more interesting? Has anyone else used an old case for something funky?
