I could easily run aluminum along the bottom and up
the narrow sides of the case.  The long sides would be
difficult because of the I/O.  The top would be simple
for above the daughterboard, and provided the IBM
laptop drive has no qualms with being against
aluminum.. most likely no problem there either.

Thanks. I was actually looking for a commercial
electronic housing originally.. but for an initial
building - 74 cents an a dremel equivalent is hard to
pass up.

just an idea.. if I lined the inside of the case with
aluminum foil (gluing at points) would this be
satisfactory static protection?  Or does the actual
volume(capacity) of aluminum create the protection?
