    Looks like the fan bracket didn't come quietly.

    An impish part of me looks at that and thinks it would make the most OTT raspberry pi case ever

    I got every bolt out then it had these stupid like solder/welded balls over this flattened tab bracket...
    After 2 hours of literally zero play in any direction due to various parts of the bracket having threaded seconds going through holes in the bracket then nuts on top i was like screw it, so i cut all the fan mesh apart to weaken the bracket and bent it about, which helped but still no dice... so out came the hammer! it'll be hidden by the psu anyway and the case isn't going to have a window lol.

    I might sand the inside of the case down though and shoot it with silver or graphite (like the newer macs) but we shall see!

    Ha and yes an orgy of PI's could be done lol.
