PC Case Mod: That’s So Tron!

This concoction of wood and circuitry looks to be a mash up of Tron and the Borg cube, minus the corrupt programs and assimilation.
Because Nick is such a nice fellow, he provides a detailed guide on making your own at the link provided. Think you’ve got the carpentry skills of Jesus coupled with the circuitry know how of Geordi LaForge? Prove it.
