    As i have followed a lot of custom case threads (XDeck & Xi-fi), i am getting sick of waiting for the ultimate custom case.So with this in mind i have already designed prototyped, redesigned and re-prototyped my own case which i intend to sell at some point.My only real hurdle left is want the people want.So if you have any interest in purchasing a custom xbox case please fill out the following poll to get the case available as soon as possible. The initial case is made from clear acrylic and is a complete new case not and add-on,
    it supports

    2xHDD's
    1xDVD
    Space for LCD Panel
    2xFan's

    eventually other case may also be produced;

    e.g
    aluminium
    1" steel (lol)
    not sure
    maybe
    you should fill out my poll if you have any ideas

    so if you are interested please fill out the poll. Also i am after old Hard Drives for prototyping it doesn't matter what size or if they even work at all as they are only for prototyping.any other busted xbox's parts may come in handy also (preferably if you live in australia for postage reasons), just drop me an email.

    Ok here is a mock up of the original case.

    it is actually similar to this with a lot more options now.this was the very first design.It is roughly 379 L x 245 W x 120H

    Let me know what ya's think

    mainly after broken parts, even if someone had a motherboard broken in half i would just glue it together for prototyping reasons.i am actually in QLD though, The sunshine state apparently but there is not much sunshine today.

    but thank you very much for the response

    still let me know if you come across any.

    thanks again
