like SC said, just so long as yours isn't branded (which might make it impossible or difficult).

Ignore me - I just saw that you said "built from scratch".

answers one part o fthe question so thanx a lot, any idea who does the cases with "flaps". just tried ebuyer with no success.

I had a case on a pc at work which had the drop down flaps over the drive bays. I got it from dabs and I *think* it was either an Aopen or Asustek one - but the photos are small enough that I can't really tell at a glance :)

I have to ask why you particularly want a case like that though? I can't say it made it look any nicer than any other case, in fact it was positively cheapo plastic and nasty - and if it's aesthetics you could just get one with a hinged cover that hides the whole front?
