I need to mod my side panel so I can add another 120mm fan and have the perfect spot for it, however I don't have too much experience with dremeling something of importance so while not looking for a "professional" type look I'd imagine someone that has more experience would be a lot better off doing it. I have a coolermaster praetorian case and I'd like to mount the fan below the existing one. I'm including a photo to show what I mean. There's ample room where the 2nd fan would go, just need help in getting it cut out. Even with the front intake fan there's just some dead air in the lower left of the case and with the Thermaltake WC block from my two vid cards there isn't a lot of air movement. At anyrate, that's what I'm looking to have done.

So if there's anyone in Atlanta, or anyone nearby that can either help or point me to someone that can I'd appreciate it.

If you can find a hole saw, it'll make quick work of it. You don't necesarilly have to have the dremel.

it doesn't have to perfect. as long as it is close,you should be fine
thats why we have grills

This is all true, the dremel title is just in general "can anyone use any tool to fab a hole for a fan", and yes i do understand it doesn't need to be perfect but it's just something i'm not comfortable in doing, and yes i understand if you don't try you won't.. i trust myself very much , if i had a spare side panel around then yes i'd give it a try, but i don't so for right now i won't. So i do appreciate the kind words of encouragement but for the sake of what i'm trying to get done i'm simple exploring other options that doesn't involve me actually doing it.

Thanks

Where are you at in Atlanta? I'm going to up in GT starting the 15th is when I move in. School starts the 21st, but I'll have access to the saw around September. It all depends where you are...
