Non-DIY cases using wood?

Hi everyone,

I was browsing the web to refresh my knowledge about current pc parts (did not really follow the releases since I built my own pc, 4 years ago) and I was looking at cases designs.

My lil' brother will soon be asking me to build him a proper gaming pc and since he always used MacBooks and iPhones for school I was looking out for some sleek looking white/wood cases or something along this theme.

After some quick Googling nearly all I found was DIY projects...

Do you guys know about brands/case models that use wood?

Yeah the InWin ones are the only ones I found and I was a bit surprised.

With all the crazy case designs we have out there, they start using wood only now?

you could make you're own case you have all the templates right there. 

I would suggest using the MOBO as height and then some, GPU as length, then add soem bits and pieces for HDD. But hey that's just me.

NEVER GIVE UP. NEVER STOP LEARNING. DONT LET THE PAST HURT YOU. YOU CAN DOOOOO IT

It's actually cheaper for companies to use steel, since it's faster to produce and (I believe) the materials are cheaper (considering "good wood" would be more expensive than pine for example)
