Not something I want to do again!!!
Maybe there is a flaw in yout teqnique? I can pick the mobo up by the brass barbs on the acrylic top and swing it around! (Only do this on a mobo with a dead CPU!, it is how I test the strengh of my stuff ) if you thread the holes properly it is very strong, even with metal barbs. I havn't had any problems with it. Not to say that I won't though! I will check the prices on Lexan one of these days. We only pay about $15 for 4ft X 8ft sheet of 1/4" acrylic.
