 But i don't care about the weight since it will just be sitting in one spot.

thy have this stuff like wall paper( i dont know what its called, cause i never used it) at proll anyhardware store, its used to simulate a wood surface, u know like decales are used for cars. with that u could just stick it onto a normal aluminum case, if all u wont it to do is look like wood. | |

| jolancer that's alright if you want your case looking like a 1970's station wagon  , My "motive" is to have a case made from REAL wood,If done properly it would be every bit as functional as a regular case but look twice as good

| I made a wooden case for my computer, and my case was smaller than the metal case the computer origonaly came in. and it didnt weigh much either.
