There was a link on slashdot sometime back. Don’t rmr that one. This link is from spcr

Rmr that wood is a heat insulator so unless u design it real carefully, everything inside will burn :grinning_face_with_smiling_eyes: .

heres one more… wood and alu mix. might be better at heat management

i saw one a long time back, where the case was fashioned like an antique cabinet. dont have the link now , that was a really well designed one.i may have posted it at ta

OK this won’t make a true wooden case mod, but if done corrrectly you can mimic a wooden case mod.
Purchase some real oak veneer and adhere it to the case correctly. Try to keep the cuts straight and lined up with each side so that It looks professional.
Once adhered to the case carefully sand edges and corners to a smooth rounded edges to match casing. Then carefully stain, lacquer, or clear coat your case to your desired effect.
I will attempt to get a pic. of mine in the near future and post it here. If you have a great deal of knowledge working with wood you might even be able to use a piece of 1 X 6 oak and duplicate the face plate like I did on one of my rigs. I have found that real 1/16 thick oak paneling/veneer works best and gives the best look and appeal.
