I have had a look at your pictures and have been trying to understand what you did with the motherboard tray.

If I am correct in understanding - you did not use the tray itself you removed the backpanel from the tray and screwed it onto the Mac Pro case. Is this correct?

Which motherboard tray did you use (or use as the donor for the back panel)?

Hey

Thanks very much for that.

Did you have to remove or reposition standoffs or will they accomodate an ATX or mATX motherboard?
 
that had to be removed and glued back so it fits a ATX motherbord, I went out and bought a dummy motherboard(defect full atx from gigabyte) so I wouldn't mess up my own.

OK thanks, i sort of expected it was the same as when I did my G5 Mod - I am thinking I will build a Mac Pro mod and a G4 Quicksilver this summer - looking forward to it :)
