Modding The Antec 300

[tkrow21]

Hi guys, I want to create a side window for the Antec 300 without powertools. No idea where to start.

Do you have:

• a tape measure or straight edge/square combo
  
• a square
  
• a hole punch
  
• a hacksaw (or a nibbler)
  
• heavy duty snips
  
• various files
  
• a pair of work gloves
  
• screws/nuts and bolts/or adhesive for attaching it

Without powertools? Impossible!

 

You need a dremel to start the cutting line then you need a jigsaw with metal cutting blades to finish it off. After that, the edges will need to be smoothen out with a dremel tool. Not to mention the plexi glass will need to be cut to the right size.........

Not true, if I set my mind to it I could do just as good of a job with those tools as I could do with powertools...

 

It would take quite awhile to get it looking great but it most certainly can be done...

Haha, I know it's ridiculous to attempt something like this with regular tools, but my mom won't let me use the big boy tools
