Hi:

I was asking about Dremel tools last month, however, finances seem to have gotten in the way. Now I'm ready to purchase a kit!!!

What else do I need if I'm gonna be modding my case??? Like cutting out a window???

Thx
Ricky

Wow. Dremels sure have gotten expensive. You can go down to Home Depot and get basically that same kit without quite as many accessories for like $20 less.

You can buy a premodded case with a window and cold cathode already for half the price of a dremel. NO FUN but.

exactly ... I'm really doing this for the process, not the result. Does the cut-off wheels that come with it good enough???

my case is pre-modded, and not near as fun as it would be if I had cut the window out myself. With a custom window you can make it unique. smile.gif

so the amount i have in that kit will not be enuff??? How much would I need if i'm cutting a window out of a side panel and a blowhole on top???

Thx

for cutting your case i recomend the fiberglass reinforced break off wheels... they cut a little faster and last longer ( i was going through standard break off wheels like toilet paper on my case, then again its a steel case )

yeah definately go with something better than the standards. i mean can use the standard but eva_unit told me when he cut out his window he used like 10 of them or some high number.
