Nice! Did you print your own case?

@yurkshirelad Hi,
No i didn't print the case, it's a left over case from an external hard drive...
Seagate Expansion Desktop External Hard Drive 4 TB, Black case (Curries / PC world) item.
I basically bought a couple of these and stripped the drives out to go inside the PC, left with a couple of cases now so using the leftover case and a dremel i cut / drilled out where i fitted the perf board parts. Hot glue'd the boards inside with various holes where i needed them.
Worst part was the fact it's made from that brittle plastic so i had to be careful when i used the dremel as it produced a bit of hot flying plastic (Goggles on !!!).
On a side note, in future i will make smaller LED holes (pin holes next time)... these are a bit bright and constantly flash so a little distracting.
