everyone one are welcome to use

2) how thick acrylic should i use?
depends to u... 3mm like that should be enuf.

3) how make a acrylic panel become L shape? ( burn it?)
heat it not burn it... works with iron too
google it for more info laugh.gif
~ http://forums.bit-tech.net/showthread.php?t=140973

4) wat colour of acrylic?~~~XD ( blue,red,green,white)
5)how to open side panel? (can make it like normal casing juz pull and take it out?)
depends to u
the fun part is design the casing and make it unique thumbup.gif

6) around how big i should buy for the acrylic to make a casing?
more is better than less... but if not enuf u can always buy later


good luck with ur modding thumbup.gif
