A cable management solution + SSDs on the back of the mainboard would also be nice Also why fix the fan to the LED ring instead of fixing it to the body?

Given the youtube videos on this case, it supposedly is a reversed engineered case. Copyright is at best messy. Also, please do not print cases like this in PLA. It softens at 55C and is malleable. On youtube he posted a build with a 12400, which will use up to 150W, and this case hardly has any ventilation. As for the design, it is not standard compliant. You need a motherboard with integrated rear IO shield for this to work. For what is, a bucket design, it has some clever choices, particularly the design of the MB tray. But that MB support is weak, and will flex. A simple flat MB tray would be far more standard compliant, and way safer.
@FrodeBergeton_715714 Fair points, however from what I had as the original design, which was not even done and dysfunctional, there has been so many changes (100+) that I am not worried about copyright at all. It's neither the original STL files being used nor the original look is the same anymore. And the original design was never public and not created out of the community but was also paid for. So from that perspective I'd call this version inspired not more. Anyways, I have all the commercial rights to do whatever I want with it and I decided to make it public. There is going to be a lot more changes and complete parts of this have already been replaced by re-designs after the first iterations and I am re-designing other elements at the moment because I still don't like them 100%. So again, nothing to worry anymore.
About the temperature topic, the use of PLA(+) in this version seems to be rigid and temperature resistant enough to withstand even drops and shipping so far. I think using PETG or ASA might be better if you intent to put a lot of load on this.
I don't know how you come to the conclusion that this has hardly any ventilation. The 120 mm fan sucks air through the complete case non-stop so why should there be an issue. Normal PC cases hardly have that kind of a straight end-to end airflow as this case. (edited)
Hello,
Can you share the step files to collaborate? Such as on GitHub please. I have a similar board mini server at home but it contains 2 pieces of 3.5" HDD and I'd like to create a bracket for them too which fit in your extremely cool PC case.
