Cheapest PC case

[JuicyJohnMcD]

So I just watched the video with the tiny $13 case just as I was thinking about trying to build my own custom case. My plans have changed, and based on my own personal measurements I need about 6 of these cases. I am going to use these cases to make a block monstrosity. I can't seem to find it on amazon so does anyone know where to get these? Yes you can call me an idiot if I'm missing something obvious.

Just use your motherboard box, it's even cheaper.

I have those lying around that in going to cut up. Originally I was just going to buy and bend aluminum with a pressbreak and punch.

yeah you can build a pc with tupperwares.

Or go to the scrapyard and pick up some old OEM systems for their cases. HP and Dell carcases can look nice.

I'm going to do something a bit more aesthetically pleasing than that lol

[JuicyJohnMcD]

I should make something clear, when I'm done, this thing is not going to look like a computer. But this has been a lot of help thank you all!

And I'm going to do mostly from scratch. It really depends on what I can get a hold of. I dont really want to get a regular case and modify it, but I'll gladly mutilate many other cases and Frankenstein them together lol
