I am please to report that I have finally finished my 486 build. This was inspired by LGR's video that he posted back in July https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fbjYkPKRm-8 . It took me until now to gather the parts necessary and then figure out how to put it together. I am using the same motherboard as LGR as that seemed like a great choice. I ended up putting a DX4 100 overdrive and a GoTek Floppy Emulator in it as well. I initially wasted a lot of time trying to get an old ATX case to work with it but eventually caved and got an AT case from eBay. I am very happy with the case it almost looks new. Anyway, I have posted a few threads on here since starting this endeavour and I appreciate all the help that I received. I realize some of me questions were really noob! Here are a few pictures:
