I went through a few sets of monster can skins on my older tuber before switching to plastic file folders, but man do they look cool, yours looks great.

Looks sweet, and if it gets busted you can recycle it and pop a new can on it.

I fold the edges to give it extra strength because the can isnt very strong to start with, I think I'm gonna make a servo cover next

Soda cans are pretty sharp too. Post pix of that servo cover when you get it done. Cool idea, never thought of that.
