I didn't get as much done over the long weekend as I thought I would, for two primary reasons:
1) my neighbor wasn't around and I needed his table saw for most of what's left to be done on the case, and
2) I quitting dipping Copenhagen again. My last dip was Friday night. That means that Saturday and Sunday I was a wreck, and in fact I'm still not really back to normal. Saturday and Sunday were the worst though. By Monday I was mostly just exhausted from not being overstimulated all the time.
I did get my motherboard mounting tray completed. I've got two rails measured out that I need to cut and glue/screw into the case. The motherboard mounting tray will screw onto these rails. I just need to take some measurements off my power supply to make sure I'm putting the mounting rails exactly where I want the motherboard to be. Other than the motherboard mounting tray, most of what I have left is to cut some 1/4" panels to form the outer skin of the case. These panels will have various hatches cut into them for things like the window, access to the case fans/radiators, and so forth. That's what I need the table saw for.
