One of my clients sent me a pic of his mine. All of the rigs are mounted in my mining trays (with tops). The GPUs are all 7950 Radeons (mostly MSI Twin Frozrs). Max hash is currently at around 73MH. Box fan cooling FTW!  Nice! I guess you better go big or not mine at all. Nice, im jealous..... How much per rig? specs? proc? ram? cards? Did you use a harddisk less setup? I don't have any further information. I just built the cases that the rigs are mounted in.  did you accepted BTC or USD for cases  USD (PayPal) only. |

I've received confirmation from a client that the V3 m-board has the same mounting holes as the V2 m-board.

Each blade is secured to the tray via a custom plastic bracket. The beam that the brackets and fans are attached to could be mounted on the opposite side.   More info as soon as I get my hands on a backplane and build a prototype (sometime next week). |

No drawing but an accurate photo...  I do have a pretty accurate (low-tech) method to transfer mounting hole locations: - Attach normal standoffs to the board. In this particular case, the six mounting holes around the perimeter and the two (?) down the center.
- Place a bath towel on a hard surface.
- Place poster board on top of the towel.
- Press the board with the standoffs down onto the poster board.
- Label a reference standoff location, relative to some landmark on the board!!!
That should leave accurate impressions of each standoff in the poster board. i'll try to get some posterboard tomorrow..... dont have any here at the moment Awesome! But, I might be getting a board shipped to me pretty quickly. I'll be sure to let you know if that doesn't happen. |

Anyone interested in an open-air case for ASICminer blades? Each blade is secured to the tray via a custom plastic bracket. The beam that the brackets and fans are attached to could be mounted on the opposite side. Any comments/suggestions? p.s. Does anyone have an accurate drawing of the backplane mounting holes? |

you should make something for the asicminer blades and backplane
Soon! |

I plugged in my unit this morning Noncerate: 579.391GH/s !!!!! Great job guys it's a very nice product! Pics please. |

Plastic end caps are a new option:
$.55 each.
what is the point of the plastic end caps? is it to replace the screws as an alternative? For the large atx mining tray pictured on your website, does it come with the gpu support beams or does it have to be purchased separately? The end caps are decorative, but I have them on all of the posts on my tray to prevent scratching my arms. The GPU support beam is included with the mining tray:  |

The mining trays (actually, all of my trays built from 15mm square extrusions) now ship with plastic tabs to fasten the PSUs directly to the extrusion:  |

Hey all. So a quick note on the cases. Firstly thanks Spotswood for your work. Looking really nice. There is one element of the design that is a little counter-intuitive, which is that the fins of the heatsinks go length ways down the boards. (we couldn't find sideways ones at short notice). This means that the best fan position is going to be directly on top of the miniplane stack facing down, or perhaps to keep it sideways, the miniplane would have to be standing up. To account for this, we have added holes to the miniplanes so air can pass through. (see photo of actual boards beneath). For the doublescroll, the fan position will be best at the end. Not to say that shooting a fan across won't still be effective, but shotting it along the fins of the heatsink is ideal. Now i know this is a bit weird, and apologies for that, but it was the best we could do with the heatsinks we got. It will still work. Spotwood, could you have a look at factoring this into your design. Cheers. Done.  |

Hey Spotwood. I have one of your cases for my Bitfury. Very well made. I am trying to picture how my unit would fit on these though. I have 8 boards. So I have 2 mini planes and then a double scroll holding the two mini planes. Are your cases built for that? The basic design can be adapted to almost all of the custom ASIC boards. I don't have a model of the double scroll, but here's a quick mockup of what a case for it might look like:  (Imagine the double scroll mounted to the two support beams.) What is the layout of the mounting holes on the double scroll? |

Open air cases for Drillbit System miniplane and 8-chip boards. The cases come in two sizes (for one or two miniplanes), $29 and $39 USD respectively, plus shipping from New Hampshire (fits USPS medium flat rate box). PayPal only.    The top corners of the hash boards are secured to the case via custom plastic brackets. The plate for the Raspberry Pi can be mounted wherever you can insert nuts in the slots of the aluminum extrusions. Included with the case are two/four fan tabs, with fasteners (to mount 120mm fans). (Not pictured are the standoffs and tabs to mount a PSU to the case). Send me an email (rchomiczewski @ gmail) to purchase. |

Hi, Rich
Can you tell me when you are going to ship out my order?
Thank you
All done. Shipping on Monday. |

Anyone interested in a drop-dead simple open-air case for Chili boards?
This basic design could be expanded to accommodate more boards (in either/or width and depth) and could be stacked.
Cost, if fully assembled and shipped to California? The case is $29 plus shipping (from NH). The final shipping weight is still tbd. |

Interesting, but I don't like the exhaust of one heatsink feeding into the next heatsink. I would expect better performance if you rotate those heatsinks 90 degrees and point one of these bad boys at the rig to provide adequate the air circulation, lol. Fixed.  |
