First I would like to say that this build was inspire by Crossdesk from  redharbinge, Lian Le pc desk and many more modders that fulfill my inspiration.

 

I had design the body by making blue-prints guided by many pc desk specially the cross desk. I still have all my documentation if any one is interested in the material.

 

First I started the build as follow:

I did had any metal bender or metal shop around my place but i did not let that stop me. I did it out of wood knowing the risks and dangers but with addition of another material I believed to have made it a bit more safe for me and my computer components.

the last picture demonstrates one of my attempts to create my own motherboard made of acrylic. Then I went and created the frames of the legs.

Then I moved toward the pc back panel with water fitting cut outs.

Then i turned them into metal by spray painting and covering the wood with carbon fiber vinyl wraps

I added metallic fencing sheets for it to look more metallic. I then wrapped the mother board base also.
