His previous project, Phinix Cube was quite dinky but forum use phinix decided to notch things up a bit and make something even smaller. What's more, it seems phinix's keen eye for great colour coordination and contrast have been honed since completing Phinix cube, as his new project, Nano Tower looks awesome.

Early renders show just how much of a miniature the project is and we're amazed how much phinix is planning to squeeze in to the tiny scratchbuilt case - it will even be water-cooled. On the right the case frame is already a reality and looking close to the original renders.

The side panels followed shortly afterwards with a fantastic-looking hexagonal design cut out of them. For contrast, phinix is using bright yellow acrylic - this section here making part of a mid-section line that runs around the inside of the case.

Here's the inside of the side panel showing more of the fantastic design and also how the two parts of the panels were secured together, apparently using button head screws. There's plenty more acrylic to to come from the looks of things too with a delivery arriving from Chilled PC, which has cut the various sections to shape.
