That’s very impressive.

I must admit though, my first reaction on seeing the thread title was “How do you know what shape it’s going to be when you wake up in the morning?” :)

Now all of the white parts are printed with PETG and i love the pure white color of the filament.

I ordered orange PETG and TPU (for the legs)

Raiser cable cover fits nicely

I think four of these will hold the two parts together

I added magnet for the side grill for easy access

That looks amazing as is. Maybe some cleaniler tubing as the soft stuff you used does look used (I know you did mention that for the components).

I much prefer the look of soft tubing when I can be made as tidy as you know doubt could.

I am going to use hardline for this build. For test i used soft tubing.

I did test assembly of the case.

I tested the new parts on the case and noticed one design flaw. First time i had older mb and it didnt have backplate so there was room for cables. But this new one has backplate and there is no room.
So i have to do some re design and print new ones :D
