The panels over the hard drive cage look really good, despite how simple they are. Looking forwards to more updates :)

I'm liking the star trek badge vibe from the cutout on the panels over the HDD cages.

i will start progress on the inside today  :D

and for my 24th post (24 is my lucky number) a little bonus i made it in the weekend, 10 imaginary points to the first person who can tell me what this plane is and from what country. (the red is because it looks better)
