Scuffed DIY Case

Build Description
This case was built many years ago (and looked much better back then too). I liked being able to see the internals of the PC as if it was a desk.
Upgrades to the PC over the years also made cable management look worse and worse.
The two fans on the side used to 140mm but I switched to 120mm, so one corner is screwed in properly and the other corner is held by a zip tie.
I needed more cables coming into the PC but the hole in the back of the case for cables was not large enough so I used the gap caused by placing a 120mm fan into a 140mm slot for cables.

Favorite Feature
The monitor can close like a (giant) laptop.
