thanks tom

Sounds like a fun idea, too bad you're doing rangers and not habs.

Anyways, i'm having trouble visualizing it, more description, sketch maybe?

Re: case mod help- hockey puck dream

i just tried and failed to copy and paste place a bucket on its side with lid on. now the front will be a sovereign hockey puck the the ny rangers logo. left side ny city skyline and the right side names and numbers of famous ny rangers so many obstacles in my way but i want to do this'

Re: case mod help- hockey puck dream

i finally figured out what you meant by a bucket on its side...definitely haven't seen anyone do that before.

What about just using plexyglass or sheet metal to make the shape? You'd need a big bucket to get all the computer components in it.

hand sketch it and then scan it in, or take a picture of it so we can see it better. And its all about the Flames imo
