TechNation have actually published this one: http://www.tecnation.co.uk/article.php?id=57 - Wilier's excellent step by step guide to case modding. While I wouldn't bet on you having the tools (or industrial facility) to do exactly this, it should give you an idea of what's involved.

Hello there banned one. I too would like to do this but I'm scared that I would fuck up. I need to do something to sort my 48 degree case temperature, with the case off.

You need a thin bladed bandsaw to do this properly (don't know what its called, but a machine with a blade on a loop, that allows you to turn the side of your case in the direction you wish to be cut).

Would be easier to just buy a new case tbh.

In truth, your right, although a bandsaw isnt what most hobby-ists have in their shed/garage/kitchen. You can get blades for a jigsaw which are specifically designed for sheet metal though, the biggest problem is that they will rip the case to pieces if not properly supported. I found the best result, although the most time consuming, was to use the Dremel and a slack hand-full of cutters.

Whichever method you choose, make sure you cover the whole panel in masking tape first. Stops scratches and slips.
