Thanks!? Ouch, always when you think you're getting close to done...?
I've added the rj45 jack for my spare handheld mic along with a mini usb port on the back. I still need to wire up the up/down buttons off the jack.
I left the front plate with the original jacks in case I want to ever use them again.? If I don't I'll end up creating a new faceplate and have the rj45 jack directly on the front.
There is now a 1" fan in the top along with a 2" speaker.? I ended up replacing the green screen with the blue and it's quite a bit easier on the eyes.? The case was painted hammered black on the top and bottom pieces. The front and back plates got coated in hammered silver.? I wanted a bit of an old-school vibe with the hammered paint.??
I realized I never gave the case dimensions - it's 7"wide x 6.5" long and 3" tall ( ~17.5 cm x 16 cm x 7 cm)
When I make it back to the office I'll be printing up laser water slide decals for some last minute embellishments and labeling.?
At this point I'm not sure I'd do another scratch built and recycled case due to the effort and extra time.???(lies, all lies)?I definitely spent more time and labor costs building and assembling than I would have if I bought a pre-made case. I've still got some more cable management to do on the inside but had to throw it all together for a quick distraction.??
