Designing my own PC case

Go to solution Solved by Max Caulfield,

SketchUp

I am remembering an episode of LTT where he designed that rack mountable case, and i'd like to know what software he used to design it.  I remember of a few shots of the computer screen showing a program with the inside of the case and some parts.  I am thinking of designing my own case, and would like to take a crack at designing it.

I can help with programming and hardware.

i don't know what software he used but it should be irrelevant. it's not the tools that make the peice. you could draw it on paper and build it and it would be just as beautiful

SketchUp

"I'm so glad you're my partner in crime."

"It's the power of best friendship, I know how you roll."

"Chloe, my powers might not last." 

"Ready for the mosh pit, shaka brah?" 

 "Yes, we'd be tearing up the highway. And you'd probably want me to kiss you again..." 

"I always wanted my life to be special... an adventure... but not without you."

"Because we're back in action again!"

"With great power comes great bullshit."

"Max you are not crazy. You are not dreaming. It’s time to be an everyday hero."

"I wish I could stay in this moment forever. I guess I actually can now, but then it wouldn’t be a moment."

"If that tornado came right now, I would just sit here and watch for a while."

"You're right. We hella deserve this. Splish splash."

"Can we build another pirate fort and keep the world out?"

"When a door closes, a window opens... Or, something like that."

"Listen, whatever happens, I want you to be strong. Even if you feel like I wasn't there for you because I will never abandon you Chloe. I'll always have your back. Always."

haha.  I appreciate the sentiment, but i'm genuinely interested in learning how to use the software

Thanks @1080 for the shoutout! Linus did use SketchUp for his case design. You can design custom rackmounts (between 1U and 10U) in our free CAD software, Protocase Designer. Give it download and check it out...
