For those of you hobbyists, tinkerers, custom builders, and craftsmen out there, here is an in-depth article on how one individual built a custom fine-cabinet-appearance laptop case that is both visually appealing and durable in use.

Many details and in-depth photos and drawings at the article site.

From the title I expected vacuum tubes- at least discrete components.

I thought the plastic string one a couple stories down was pretty cool.

“...both visually appealing and durable in use.”

And if it overheats, it can *really* catch fire. :)

I still have an old slide rule....

Neat project for those into that sort of thing though.
