MCE2.0 by Sleepstreamer PSU Revisited

Time to finish the look of the PSU, and get it working. I'll start by mounting the power socket. Instead of making my own power system here, I just hacked off the one used in the Antec PSU I took the guts out of. Dremel time!

Then it was time to cut a rectangular hole for the socket in both the acrylic stand, as well as the outer laser-cut steel panel.

With that done I began making the back of the PSU a bit more interesting. I made four 20mm long spacers to fit on the back. Then, I made a "frame" for the PSU using a shedload of small black acrylic pieces. If you bolt these together you get two small back stacks that looks like a pair of vents. Put these on two pieces of aluminium and you've got yourself one very cool-looking frame.
