Hi,
Here is a small picture of what we are currently designing with FreeCAD 0.16 (release edition) on Ubuntu 14.04.
This is a computer chassis which will accept 4 2xOU slots with backend power distribution performed through a bus bar.
This design uses sheetmetal and Assembly2 workbench. It is free, but massively too big to be posted there (the assembly is about 20MB). Feel free to ping me if you want it, it is released under an Open Hardware license

ps: One of our goal is to be able to run the whole design in FreeCAD as a toolchain including Thermal/structural/Accoustic analysis.
ps2: The picture is not the right one, but it is fine, this is the announcement of the project on Open Compute Project Facebook page
