Wow, nice I like it. I am searching for the motherboard online and I am really very happy I found your post. I am also very happy because when I was searching for it online, I also found https://www.topessaywriting.org/samples/gun-control website link where I can read essay samples for free and I don't have to pay anyone to write my essay assignments.

Wow, nice I like it.

Now the modding begins! 
I started by cutting manually the case to remove the front area. 
I want to have a semi-open type of case. I also want to expose as much as possible the parts so that It can be distinguished as a computer.

I used aluminum angle bars as support of the case. I used rivets to secure it together with the case.
Next is the base, I decided to use wood because it is light and can hold the weight of my casemod.
I cut two pieces using jigsaw and combine them to make a platform using wood glue and securing it with wood screws.

The case is mounted on the base platform using 8 wood screws. This will be enough to hold the case.

Next are the brackets and mounting for the pump, radiator and fans.
 I also made a custom bracket for the GPU using aluminum angle bars and flat bars

I made a custom mounting for the top fan bracket and relocated it to the back part of the case.
I used additional aluminum bar to support the bottom mounting.

Thee D5 pump brackets are also made from aluminum flat bars.

I also made a passthough system for watercooling. The plan is to have tubes around the case to showcase and expose Thermaltake's watercooling parts.
I used acrylic sheet to have a cover of the passthrough fittings to hold on to. This part will be very vital in our casemod because this will enhance the theme that I want to achieve.

Here's the current state of the CaseMOD:

  • Custom front radiator mount
  • Custom rear radiator mount
  • custom gpu bracket
  • custom pump brackets
     

The Plan is to maintain The Tower 500's form/layout so that It can be still recognized from the original case design. 
The Motherboard, GPU, Powersupply and etc  (Main parts) will be using the case itself and not other materials.

I used tiny magents to the exterior parts so that it can be detached from the main case easily.
