Parts used in my Mini-ITX case build were as follows.

GameMax GT-450G TFX PSU: https://amzn.to/4rjYPvk (Amazon UK)

Power switch: https://amzn.to/45ENoWW (Amazon UK) https://amzn.to/4rZPTLV (Amazon US)

2mm ABS sheet -- 5 pieces (2.5 packs) used in total: https://amzn.to/4rt22c5 (Amazon UK) https://amzn.to/4c4ejiM (Amazon US)

4mm ABS rods (20 pack): https://amzn.to/4s3qUr6 (Amazon UK) https://amzn.to/4qLOc3J (Amazon US). Note that prices for this kind of product vary widely, so shop around. You can pay more for 2 rods than I list here for 20!

NOTE: This would replace all three of the above far more cheaply, but does not look as cool: https://amzn.to/4t6DdUV (Amazon UK)

I had M3 stand-offs and screws in stock, which came from a pack I’d previously bought here: https://amzn.to/4k7HGCE (Amazon UK)

The ventilation mesh is the material sometimes used in fiberglass repairs that I had in stock, something like this: https://amzn.to/4ayesK8 (Amazon UK)
