I have a couple ideas for my own computer case and I just wanted to know where would I go to get this done?

What I mean is to get the metal for the case cut

Posting what area you live in would help people suggest places In NZ the local hardware stores have a basic selection of materials (so I'd assume big depots in the US would have more) then there are specialised places for a larger variety, alternatively if your design needs machining most machine/cutting shops can provide materials and often prefer it because they know the material properties, finishes, etc.

One thing I'd suggest is go down to your local hardware store and just have a wonder around, not only will you see what they have on hand but you can often get ideas from stuff you weren't aware existed

Have you considered using acrylic? It's tough, easy to work with and dirt cheap.

Oh right, my main one is in my profile, I'll probably be throwing a GTX980/970 in there when the 8GB versions come out though. If your looking for components in NZ www.pricespy.co.nz is a good place to start. I'm also currently putting together a custom low power streaming rig, its in the build logs section called Tranquil Stream.

If you provide CAD drawings I'm sure most local metal shops can laser cut and bend you parts for the case but as for specific shops that will do this work other than MNPC I don't know of too many others.
