If you put a computer in a milk crate, might that expose the motherboard a bit more to the risk of excessive amounts of electric shock? I'm hoping that enough fan action would blow away the dust. I probably should buy a computer vacuum or something.

It could get dusty. My PC case has filters on the fans and other vents, but I do not clean it out very often anyway.
The biggest risk may be the possibility of frying the motherboard via electric shock, secondly might be messing it up with liquids. In third place, I'm thinking dust. I've never cleaned my 5 year old laptop here. But in the future, I'm thinking of being more cautious. I did use a regular vacuum on a desktop.
Yeah being an open case it's something I need to be more careful around. Though by using old parts I dont really care if it fries or gets dusty. If it was not for this project I would have scrapped them.
I agree.
