I like your leather wrapped Mybook mod.
I have made some extensive wood based mods (including the only wooden iPod)
I suggest on your shuttle PC to use a veneer next time, they are still real wood, but work well for skinning a PC. It is also much cheaper to get a nice veneer then nice hardwood.
See my wooden shuttle here:
