PC case designing software?

[Twitch.tv/Okingo]

Hello!

i want to make my own Lian li like pc table case, since lian li is extremly expensive,
my only problem is i m bad at CAD software, is there any other software where i can design a pc?

You xan pay them to fo the design work from a very basic sketch, I looked into having a custom case built a few years, ago, but, ended up building a second pc with the money instead.

thats exactly what i thought, i could probably even buy this one instead of the 1400€ model:

this piece of nice stuff is 2400€

Or.... If you aren't doing a masdu Ely crazy custom water loop in it (the ONLY Way they look good) you could go with a regular case, save a grand and the stress as, no offence, but, it doesn't seem like you have the skill set to pull this off and don't want to learn or pay for it to be done properly, in general, this is a recipe for disaster, but, if you do pull it off, I would love to see the final product and be proven wrong.

Indeed, You seem a bit too focussed on replicating that desk exactly. Instead, focus on the features that you want, and how you can achieve those with the skills you do have.

Youtube is full of videos of people building their own PC desk with built-in PC's, at all skill levels. Spend an afternoon browsing, get inspired, make something you can do, that doesn't require a CAD/CAM file.

thank you, i saw these videos actually

i dont know why everyone thinks i m incompetent,
i do this professionally, except we have over 50 designers/architects? who send us blueprints,
all i can do is read and not write.
i know that i will fuc* up holes because i dont have any measurements to read.

And you're not close enough to any of them to do this as a favor for a friendly fee? Most people I know wouldn't mind making $200 for a quick evenings work.

Also, I do not think you're incompetent. I just said to pick a project or a method suitable to your skill level. You may not be able to make a CAD/CAM file, but there's nothing stopping you from keeping a PC case on the side along with a ruler/protractor and other tools and do it manually, and pick a finishing method that'll allow you to hide errors. After all, people made extremely complicated and tight fitting stuff before the advent of CAD/CAM.
