My fiance has a metal file cabinet that has seen some better days to say the least. After some discussion, she has given me the green light to tear it apart and use what I can to build a case if I so desire.
Needless to say, the desire is there, but I've got enough irons in the modding fire at the moment.
Also, that orange pseudo-plexi window that I put into the side of Frankenstripe doesn't fit the feel of the theme anymore, so like any good modder, I shall place it in a bin full of odds and ends. Very bothersome when you have plans for something but you can't describe it.
Has anyone attempted anything similar? I know that in the guitar world, ZZ Top's Billy Gibbons had a guitar and bass made out of wood that was salvaged from Muddy Water's childhood home. Other than that, I can't really think of any other examples from any modding-related field.
Enough of my rambling. At this rate, I'll have an army of modded computers in 5 years.
