asks: "Hi. I'm writing in the hope that some electrical
people will be able to help me out with the nitty gritty
aspects of shielding a computer case. You see, I'm building
myself a computer case out of wood. I have already built
one, but it was merely a wood case (replacing the plastic)
which overlayed a standard metal chassis. Well, that was
too heavy, and I also want to use my own layout for the
'guts' of the box. So aside from heat, noise and grounding
(which i've pretty much figured out) - I'm worried about
the electromagnetic interference aspect of this new
machine. It's most likely going to be a dual Celeron based
Ultra-Wide SCSI2 system - which I think (!?!) will
generate quite a large electromagnetic field. I've been
thinking of shielding the case by lining it with this with
copper
fabric or something similar - but don't know how it
sizes up to a solid metal case. Any help would be greatly
appreciated - and I'll be sure to post pics of the case
(well it's actually more than that) in progress and when
completed.
