Really like that snake skin effect. Really cool. Great work on the whole thing.

Oh my god CBB I couldn't stop laughing at the pic of "the wife's office (no modding here)"! Great idea for the mod and nice results too, I saw the finished product already.
A perfect case for UV lighting.
I'm glad you all like the case, and that you got a laugh out of the work log ! (it was meant to be fun!).

Where might I find that? I have a project that has been sitting for a few years now and this might help in some areas.expanded PVC board (sintra)
Great work CBB!
I was able to sweet talk a 4'x8' out of the local sign shop (it ran me $50, but they sold it to me), I had to do this because their company police is not to sell raw goods to people. A smaller mom n pop shop may even give you what's in their "scrap" bin.
If you have to go to the web, United States Plastic Corp. has a wide variety of plastics (this includes Acrylic) in Rod, Sheets, Tubes, I-beams and more. Prices aren't bad.
I know allot of guys that have used USP with great reviews!
Another option is
www.lairdplastics.com but you have to Spend $150 (or more it's been awhile since I ordered from them) and pick up your order from one of there locations. But if you think about that's only maybe 3-4 sheets of product (depends on thickness).
I really like working with the pvc, I've seen guys make load bearing parts for robotics out of this stuff (think droid 3-4' tall about 2' diameter... say 40to 50 lbs fully loaded!) that using pvc that's 1/8" thick!
Now back to the contest, I love your and Ton's mods .... I love how we all went a different direction with the mods giving the same parts!
