    Ask yourself

    Do you want to build a case from scratch or mod an existing computer?

    If you want to build a case from scratch what bits and pieces do you have at the moment that you can use.

    What would it be made out of? Metal, wood or plastic?

    Find some existing mods that use the same material or are built in a similar shape or style and read through what they used and how they did it.

    After you know the material and how they did it, are you able to do the same? What do you need to buy to acomplish it?

    Sure we would all love "real friends", but honestly whats the chances of that happening?

    browse the site for idea's,

    do you wish to do a scratchbuild, mod existing hardware, or do a software mod (pm me if you want help on this)

    do you have an idea of where you want to go with it, or an indea on which to base it.

    also, i know it sounds cruel, but don't set your targets too high, and expect a few things to go majorly wrong
