So I read these mod forums not really understanding but know there is an art form going on with these folk.

I just watched a video OS Xbox casemod build video and it is mesmerizing! If I were really younger, had more talent, and they were offering a class to build my own, I'd gladly spend a year there doing it.

Give yourselves a treat and watch the 10 min. movie. I'm really talking to other non-modding folk like myself who are coming here just to gawk! smile

I was working on a project like this myself by turning a old xbox case to house a hackintosh but smaller format like a micro ATX with a ITX power supply and a slew of laptop components.

Oh well, I can use this as a template for mine.

I am always jealous of the workspace that these people have. I want that much room to play in.

I got a two car garage that I use for my work shop. Most of my tools are for automotive but I do have a few that I use for fabercation and such.
