Okay I have whipped together this guide to help people put their case together. There is also a list of hardware and where it goes to help.
I decided against doing a video as I felt it would take longer.
When you first build your case I would recommend following the steps below in order. After you have got all the alignments correct then you can take it apart and put back together in any order.
(there is one step missing below, how to put the hanging bar on; I will add it tomorrow)
Some notes: The washers may have two or more stuck together
Make sure the slots in the baseplate go to the REAR of the case (they are for cables and wiring).
The side panels should have the offset M8 through hole towards the rear of the case (there are two large holes in the side panel, one is centered and one is offset)

Got mine today. Again, Thanks for the hard work. Looks like a great case so far.
I received only 8 M5 black washers (4 x washers of 2 different types) when I think I should have received 10 M5 washers (6 x 1 type and 4 x a different type).
I guess I need to go to the hardware store today.
Other than that the case is great! It looks amazing when assembled.
Edit, I also received only 6 of the 8 M6 x 12mm bolts.

I just had to post this because all I can do is laugh at this point. And... it's just been my luck these days.
I asked Austin about shipping UPS because it was a bit less expensive and, since I've always had good luck with UPS, figured Nahh.... I don't need insurance.
Here is my case:

Or at least where it is at the moment. Stay tuned kiddies!
Dammit! Speaking about bad luck!
I got everything from http://www.mcmaster.com Heres the part number
91239a318 Class 10.9 Stl Button Head Socket Cap Screw, M6 Size, 12 Mm Length, 1 Mm Pitch
I can just mail you two M6 bolts, send me your paypal address in a PM if you want them.
Same here, except on the washers I got 6 of one type and 4 of another. Missing the same two M6x12mm screws.
Laser_freak, do you have a Fastenal® store near you? They should have in stock what you need.
Austin, I'm not worried. I have the washers and Fastenal is less than 1/2 mi. from where i work. No biggie. With as many parts and pieces and you working on the project by yourself..... Nah, no worries here.
Case is kickass. Thanks.![]()
