another custom build......

[daiashthomas]

after seeing daviddekanters build i'm keen to follow in his footsteps with the retro dvd player as a custom case, i would like to find out about purchasing any old panasonic players in black even old bulky type cd-stack would be great, preferably faulty lol.

cheers

How about an old receiver.
I have an old receiver from pioneer which came from the same series as the DVD player and that one has a lot of space.
This one still works excellent in combination with my normal PC. I won't be chopping it up but who knows in the future. I can easaly fit 10 HDD's in there and a blu ray drive.
So when she dies........

reason i'm interested in a dvd or cd deck specifically is that i would like to get a working blu-ray drive in there
