After looking trough some other Models, I desided to make my own. The main change is that I put heat set inserts on both sides of the legs. That makes it less critical if the two face plates warp a little bit. Converting the ATX PSU allows you to create multiple voltage outputs, including a variable 0.5-30V output and stable 3.3V, 5V, and 12V rails. Additionally, there are the usb ports for devices that would need it and require 5V power. It's a good way of having a use for old Power Supplys that would otherwise be thrown away.
