Motherboard Tray
I've been looking into building a computer case. I've searched around on google looking for a place that sells motherboard trays, but I'm not finding much. Does anyone know anywhere that does, or have any ideas of mounting a motherboard without the tray? Thanks.

Or you can build your own tray all you need to do is make the holes since the mobo will came with the screws

Since all you need is the basic mounting, you can buy a cheap clone case and hack off the parts you don't need.

A flat piece of metal or even plastic with a bunch of standard standoffs in the correct place will do the trick here. If you're building a totally transparent case, the plastic one would be cool.
