Mod of the Year 2009

Atomwood by Chris Cook (cc3d)

Project log: Here

Original bit-tech article

There was a time when wood was an extremely popular material to make things out of. Boats, planes and buildings for example all used to be made nearly entirely of wood and some still have elements of it in their construction today.

Unfortunately PCs missed that bandwagon by a century or so, but that hasn't stopped Chris Cook, aka cc3d, from designing his own cube PC case made almost entirely from wood.

In fact, Chris used several types of wood in this project using the experience he gained from his FiveWood project we featured last summer, Chris set about designing his case which would house an Intel Atom 330 based Intel mini-ITX motherboard.
