[Elecraft] T1-K case mods....

[Jonathan]

The vaunted T1-K is without question at least nearly peerless in its class. They just ain't no other like it. 
Having said that, there's a fairly salient groundswell of disappointment in the plastic case. On one hand it's professional-looking and such a case ensures that all units will appear exactly the same, etc. 
I sort of visualize a billet aluminum case, or something similar. Has anybody seen any mods done on this case, or a completely different installation? The design is pretty well perfected, so it's not like somebody's gonna stuff it in a Whitman's Sampler box or anything--but I just wonder if there is somebody who has? 
Thanks for your feedback,

"Once plants and animals were raised together on the same farm - which therefore neither produced unmanageable surpluses of manure, to be wasted and to pollute the water supply, nor depended on such quantities of commercial fertilizer. The genius of America farm experts is very well demonstrated here: they can take a solution and divide it neatly into two problems."  Wendell Berry
