I wish I had more time and money to build my dream case, but I haven't forgotten about it either. There are, however, a few things I haven't figured out and the one biggest thing that's worrying me is how to make drive bay cages.

Can anybody recommend a method or a vendor for parts for building a pair of external drive bay cages?? I want to build one cage for five 3-1/2" drives and another for four 5-1/4" drives. Nominally, both bays would be 5 inches tall (hence the sizes), but I'm a bit worried about (and completely inexperienced at) building them from scratch.

I think the ideal answer would be if there's a company that sells something pre-cut to the right sizes for computer drives, but I have no idea whether any such thing exists. Does anybody have any ideas??

Well basicly if you build your case the drive cages aren't the hardest thing to do since it's two plates with holes in them
wether it's plexi or metal the holes just have to be aligned and you just use you imagination
Like this pic for instance (5-1/4) i've cut the inside of one that i had and soldered the mesh in
but i could've made it all myself.
and it becomes unique. All those little slots aren't that important, it's just adjustments and if you do it custom you
dont really need them.
