I didn't know the Drawbridge.

Seems really interesting though for such a tiny piece of hardware.

Spent the afternoon on it, but the project is over and everything works as expected !

External LEDS are fitted and they look not so bad.

I preferred to file a bit here as the USB-C connector on the Greaseweazle could be potentially strained when cable is inserted.

Everything is closed and ready to use, except the 4 rubber feet. I will stick them tomorrow.

I really don't have any regrets with purchasing this case. It's robust, well made and perfect for 2 drives.
