Always planning to get something small for my desk but i mostly have Mid-ATX or Bitfenix Prodigy M which doesn't consider small
I been building some of the case from wood>aluminium (Not precisionly cut out)
So i consider build something small and might able bring around at low cost.
Nothing fancy..sorry i'm a noob..just done some of the #DIY ..include fliping over the motherboard tray to my other ATX Tower

Test Specs (Borrowed from one of my pc)
Intel E6500
Gigabyte G31M-ES2L
4GB RAM
AMD HD5670
500W PSU

Material:
-Rivet
-L Shape Aluminum
-Some screw

Tools:
Screw driver
Riveter?
Drill
Aluminium cutter
and others

PIC :

To-Do
*Painting...havent think of the color
*Graphic Card bracket
*Hard Disk 2.5" only will fit..3.5" need a work around
*Fan and Lights?
*Side Windows?

The Upcoming Specs Should be a cheap FM1 board and Dual Core FM1 APU.?
Any suggestion MOBO+CPU+RAM around RM300 ish
Other part like HDD and PSU got already
Not gonna spent alot on it cause already got other workstation and pc
TQ!
