Now your gonna nail on the side that has the usb cable run through it... if you want you can add a handle aswell to the side your about to nail on..

Next Flatten out the part of the usb fan grill that is bent and drill holes in both sides so that you can bolt it to the other side of the box.... you have to use a jigsaw to cut the square out of the side for the pci slot fan grill so the air will blow out of the box.... (your fan should already be wired to the other side and run throught the half completed box...)

Use the pictures below for referance..

The first picture specifies what area of the fan needs bent

Second picture is to show you how the square should be cut for the grill to blow air out.

The third shows the handle i made on the usb cable side

and the fourth is a diagram for help..
