Need a solution for an ‘open box’ problem.

by boxfiddler . Updated 15 years, 7 months ago

First, here’s a pic: http://i220.photobucket.com/albums/dd185/juphol1/openbox.jpg

I scrounged from two Antec boxes to rebuild a desktop. I bumped into what I thought (wrongly) was a non-issue. I thought the boxes were exactly alike internally. Ha. The floppy drive mount is slightly different in each box. The lower panel from one box has a bunch of loose indicator/on-off wires, so I couldn’t use it. The upper panel from the box whose lower panel I could use doesn’t fit this floppy configuration, so I’m stuck with this open front, which I don’t think is a good idea with me having cats and lots of dust from heating with wood.

Any suggestions how to cover the open areas without looking like a ‘white trash’ solution? :0

edit
Thought I should add that I have several of the metal pieces that fit those open spot, but they have holes in them. Also, the left side of that box as you look at it is a ‘door’, so I’d prefer not to tape it…
