First, prepare the base.

You have to find a thin box or a box cover to use as the base of the plate. I used a tie box cover made of wood because it has the same thickness as my laptop.

Now put the CPU over the base you picked and mark a square to drill with your rotary device. The square must be a little bit bigger than the CPU. The reason behind the bigger hole is to make sure the hot CPU won’t touch the wooden surface of the base. It’s not going to put it into flames, but it will produce a nasty burning smell.

Then, using the fan grill as your ruler, drill four holes in the body of the base and Screw the grill down to it.

Make another hole on one side of the base. That’s where the USB wire is going through.
