When I started modding my new Aopen hx08 case
i didnt own a drill or a dremel or a jigsaw,i did everything to my case with drill bits,razor knives and wire cutters from napa,i must say the blisters did go away after a few days but i wanted mods!,i cut a front blow hole,i opened up my cable passage and cut the back out for a second psu,it worked for me!and it looks good, i did cut the window with a barrowed jig saw,but a month ago i got the full dremel package,still no drill,no jigsaw,but soon,yea now thats case "modding 101"the school of hard knox!!!......later

True, though the article has its' place, for the rich ass bastard

I don't care but how in the hell do they think that they can upload such a thing. It would bo ok if they put in the "Po case modder can get by with ..." section, there are thousands of dollars worth of tools there and do they expect us to just go casually buy them, nope.

I think that a jigsaw and some spray paind are about all you need ... luckily though, I can got to my parents shop and they have all of that stuff

too bad I don't usually.

BTW - Modding a case is for the wusses, make your own!
