Plexiglas advice: Definitely score your cut lines. Always work in sections you can break off. It'll reduce stress. Use tape over wherever you have to make hard angles/circles/curves.
Also if you are going to use acrylic, use painters tape on front and back, trace on line on the tape and when cutting it can reduce glass fractures. A jewelers saw would help or a Dremel with a cutting wheel can cut it without cracking.
What a clever idea! Is there near paper thin plexiglass out there? The motherboard is already way thicker than it’s supposed to be so I wouldn’t want to make that even thicker
No, I secured the hardware inside the pack so I can take the ALICE frame off easily. So I can remove the frame, then remove the plexiglass, and have access to the holes.
@@TheProtonPackIsNotAToy How did you secure the hardware on the inside? I'm hoping to get an aluminum motherboard and that is my dilemma on how to close everything off once the motherboard is on the haslab board.
The screws are put in first to close up the back. Then the plexiglass is laid on top, then the frame is screwed into place. I duct taped the wing nuts in place on the inside so the frame can be taken off and put back on without removing the back panel of the pack.
@@TheProtonPackIsNotAToy So you just duct taped them in so that you can screw the other screws in on the haslab board and then lay your plexiglass board on top? Then you put the spacers on and then the Alice frame and screw it in? I'm sorry if I'm not understanding it. I'm new to this.
