Aren't you worried it'll tip over? Even if it's rock solid, the bottom's only a fifth as wide as it is tall. Bump it, and it might fall.

My bad, just seen the video!

That's bad luck that dude. Looks like the case has come off with relatively minor damage from what I could see though. Will it be repairable easily or will the project be set back?

Looking great so far though mate, excellent job! =)

Haha, was kinda funny to see you just stop for about 2 seconds then swear wildly at the wind!

Glad it can be fixed though, cant wait to see the finished product!

Dude, get those safety goggles on when you are drilling into metal or I will swim across the pond and kick your butt before you put your eye out lol.

Seriously, drills often throw up shavings when going through sheet metal, unfortunately I learned the hard way. Luckily the Doc was able to remove the piece without any damage, but it was PAINFUL.............

Could i also suggest a D-ring or something on the back so you can attach it to the wall with a snap hook?

forgot them safety glasses thats a good idea.. i think am also going to look for some better wheels maybe bigger ones if i cant find any i think i will just put some legs on the bottom like server cases have that way there will be no chance of it fallen over..wouldent want it to fall over once all the hardware is in what a mess that would be.

i have fixed the damage from the wind accident now.. i think next am going to get some paint stripper and take the case back to bear metal then finish off the rest of metal work then spray the hole case then i can add the windows on the psu's and watercooling reserver . anyone no were i can get some nose cones from? for the fans 80mm wide in the uk? am struggling to find some

Holy shazbhot, I didn't think it'd actually fall over. haha.
Well, at least the damage wasn't too severe. You should just buy some tent spikes and tie it down. lol
