    Default Construction Method

    First of all... Hi, I'm new to this forum... and relatively new to modding (only done 2 boxes, the first being REALY basic... the second was alittle more in depth involving putting to computers in one...Click here to see) but anywho..

    I was wondering what construction technique i should use for making a case from plexi... and not just a regular BOX... i'm actualy trying to make this:



    Any suggestions would be much appreciated...

    aside frm the large gold colored whoopee cushion the building part of it looks alot like one of the scenes from the latest splinter Cell game. Aside from that Plexi would not be a good idea for that case, Im going to recomend using aluminum or styrene plastic (or better yet a combination of both) and use plexi for the part Im assuming is windows and the circular skylight thingy. Looks good and man do I ever wish you luck, thats NOT going to be easy.

    I would suggest, styrine plastic, its going to be eaiser to cut and stick together. Though you are going to want to model everythign with foam board first. Go to a craft store and buy some, This way you can build your model and see what it will look like for cheeper, and it will also help set up templates so that you can maximize your plasitic/cost ratio.
