This project filled the need to have a decent looking enclosure for our home theater PC. The metal working portion of this project involved stripping the old tower case, cutting a new hole for the power supply, cutting a panel to cover the card slots, patching the front knockout, and reorienting the drive mounting cage. This was the first "real" project I did with the plasma cutter.

The case was from my mother-in-laws late 90s computer, it was actually made quite substantially compared to modern ones.

I decided to fabricate a single cover for the card slots because I didn't want to exhaust my supply of single covers, plus it gave me more time squirting plasma.
