CPS-3 Custom METAL Case

[Epyc]

@hursit, I printed out your CAD drawing to scale on my laser printer. The bottom one is a better fit.

My recommendations:

-Enlarge the mount holes slightly to accommodate variance. Centers are OK

-HDMI hole might be too tight. Top circled corner radius needs to be enlarged (see pictures)

-Maybe also enlarge HDMI hole slightly?

@hursit 2nd revision looks good. That should leave enough tolerance for variances.

Heads up for people wanting to do this mod. The HDMI extender a bit bulky and will put pressure on the rear-most SIMM.

To alleviate this, I trimmed away the outer plastic of the HDMI connector (marked red) and zip-tied it on to itself so there was no pressure on the SIMMs. I did this for both sides of the HDMI extender.

See pictures below to see how I did it.

Looks really good, I need to pick up some cart labels.

Thanks for the heads up on the hdmi connector @Epyc.

I’m down for one next time they are available. I had a plexi case when I owned a CPS3 in the past, but for my next one I think this will be the way to go. I only wish it was offered in green to match my CPS2 shell : D

Edit: after looking at it a bit longer, I'm actually really wanting the red one!

Put me on the list for a CPS3 case as well once you start making them again.
