To start off, this project was inspired by potato10's mini box. Its pretty much the same idea with a few changes.

Here goes...

I saved an xbox case from a friends failed mod attempt. As you can see it got pretty chopped up.


I'm definately gonna need to do some filling and adding some new mother board mounts.

After about 15 minutes of dremel destruction...


I butchered my old laptop and have a 40gb 2.5in drive and a slim dvd drive to add.

I have alot of ideas for this, just need to find the time. I have a 1 month old daughter that takes up most of my time when I'm not at work

If anyone has a matched 1.0 or 1.1 motherboard and Hard Drive they wanna sell cheapish, PM me. The Hard disk to the mother board that I was planning to use for this fell off my desk and is no longer working properly.

He was building a PC into the case.. Had to "make room" for the atx PSU. LOL. He meant well Smile

Back to the slim box...

Filled most of the case bottom, needs a ton of sanding and prolly a bit more filling.





I'll prolly post more photos later today after I have had a cance to do a bit of sanding.

One quick question. Does the pico PSU work well with ver 1.0/1.1 motherboards? and what wattage would I need to order?

I think I'm going to move the center peice of the front plate with the eject and power buttons to the right side where I filled the controller ports. More dremel and fill work...blah.

Its kinda funny, I posted this same project on xbox-scene and havent got 1 positive comment yet. It seems that its a lost cause there. Smile

I'm pretty good with a dremel, bondo and pc hardware..... I think I can make something work here. If not, no big deal, I'm only using parts that I allready have available to me.

Lol, I know I can make it work. I've done PC case mods 10x more complicated than this. Its all a matter of finding the time to complete it Smile
