a few completed pics.
I decided a hinged bottom cover turned out to be a bad idea so a clear cover is now in its place.

From the factory you would have a solid metal bottom which i felt was a bad idea, having access to the components is better.
A clear cover was more for the fun of it than anything else. Chance is young but one day he will have his own kids and they will be interested to see the works inside as well.
