You didn't show how to connect the usb cable, and are missing some important steps.
I would make an aluminum case for that or even easier buy a cookie aluminum box, eat cookies and use that as your project box instead, it would be really easy to paint it and just about the right size.

Well one end of the usb cable has a connector to the main board, I think I should have taken a picture of it just to make it clear though. As for the project box, due to the amount of time I put into this project and since this was more of a time waster in a boring afternoon, I had to make due with the cardboard post box. But I am going to make an improved version of this project in the future and will take the project box more seriously :D
