More cable management, fan shrouds and switches

I also made a compartment to hide wires and other ugly stuff in an area in front of the PSU. This was a good opportunity to show off some of the shapes involved with the base and feet, so I chose to try and emulate the shape of the main support.

I managed to make the curved piece right on the second attempt. With that done, building up the cable management/hiding parts continued. Not really much to say here, I'll let the images do the talking.

Fitting the fan shrouds to the front panel wasn’t too difficult as I had at least two ways of doing it. Once I'd decided on the best method, I made small plexiglass mounting blocks that could be hidden beneath the vertical cable cover.
