Good work. And at least the modifications you need to do are simple to implement.
I've hopefully got the correct grey coloured filament arriving today as well.

Yeah working on sections at a time helps to break the problems down. Am still battling with the front part of the bottom case where the front grill is and pillars. Most of the work is getting done on my daily commute as this gives me a quiet hour each way and is a little different from reading a book or watching a boxset.

So the pillars are in the right place :). One bolted in floppy drive and motherboard, of course I am missing the shielding underneath.

Well that's just silly, everybody knows that the Phoenix isn't a real bird!! :dizzy:
I would suggest Dark Sparrow, but it's kind of already been done:

Dark Ostrich has a kinda ring to it. And if it all goes wrong you can be like the ostrich and bury your head in the sand :)
