But when we get to the this project my students always have a hard.
Diy sheet metal pc case.
There are thousands if not tens of thousands of cases on the market.
At the minimum you ll need a computer case.
Also available in kit form.
Reduce the number of openings that cannot be created by punching holes has to be laser cut.
At this point in my class all of our sheet metal projects have been very simple with at most one bend.
A 1m by 2m sheet of acrylic or aluminium shouldn t set you back more than around 20 and for small cases this will probably be enough to make the external shell and a few additional pieces.
You could also be looking at if you have an existing case then you can skip the rest of this paragraph.
This is a great project to make if you are new to working with sheet metal.
Reduce the number of punched holes instead increasing the hole size to maintain the same total hole area.
