And have the four parts that 'hang' loose fold up as walls. I'd like for the back panel to have holes for the PSU and a backplate area with above where the Motherboard I/O would be i'd like to have room for a 120mm fan. On the front i want room for a blu ray drive, a 120mm dual radiator laying side ways, and a power button. On the left and right walls all i need is area for screwing my rackmount rails to.

If you need a .jpg file then even microsoft paint can do that, if you are looking for something more realistic there are free CAD programs like Sketchup that will have plenty of video tutorials.

 

If you are looking for someone to do the work for you, it may take weeks to find someone especially if you arn't going to pay them, not everyone is going to donate their spare time to work for someone for nothing.

 

You are also going to need extremely specific about every detail, and every component, frankly it is easier to do it yourself since there might be communication errors.

I have been at this for a while i guess, but i've had trouble doing anything in Sketchup and MS paint isn't exactly the most accurate. For computer info, Asrock fatal1ty Z97 ATX Motherboard, intel i5-4690k, GTX 1070 MSI gaming X, 2 drives one ssd and the other a HDD and a RM750x PSU. 

 

If anyone that knows Sketchup or some other Cad program well i would pay you if you think you can help me just message me and we might try to work something out.

 

THe problem i have is that I either don't understand the program or they are made for people who while they care about accurate measurements don't think of just letting you add in math. Here is a very very very rough image with what i believe are inaccurate measurements for the sides.
