This case is now available at GAW Miners.com.   
Version 1:This is an all aluminum, heavy-duty, open-air case for BitFury's ASICs (their 'm' and 'h' boards). (Design/discussion thread here).  
    This isn't up on my website just yet, but in the meantime, send me an email (rchomiczewski @ gmail) to purchase. Can't decide whether to get the pre-assembled case? Then check-out the assembly instructions. Now shipping with a few extra fasteners to mount whatever, like this PSU switch:  |

Each block is stacked on top of the previous one. Adding another block to the top makes all lower blocks more difficult to remove: there is more "weight" above each block. A transaction in a block 6 blocks deep (6 confirmations) will be very difficult to remove.

Thanks. I forgot to mention that the two beams supporting the m-board can be re-positioned so that you can mount three thick 32/38mm thick fans.  |

Rich -
I see your thickness measurements. But I am not very knowledgeable about fans. What size (height, width or fan diameter) do we need to get for three across on each side?

F**king gorgeous work, do you have just that standard shipping rate or would it cost you or I more if you were to ship it to a place Far away from you
In reality, would shipping it to Canada cost any more? I dont know where you are shipping from
for the sake of testing, would it cost you more to send it to some place thats a contenent away? (IE Mexico to Russia)

Maybe I missed it but do we know the final placement of the Rpi in the final board setup? I know on the prototype it was hanging off 90deg to the M-board. How is it now and have you adjusted for it in your design? Thanks.

Tired of substandard power distribution in your ASIC setup??? Chris' Custom Cablez will get you sorted out right! No job too hard so PM me for a quote

In addition to the cost of the case, I collect whatever the actual shipping charge is (USPS/UPS) to your location. Maybe I missed it but do we know the final placement of the Rpi in the final board setup? I know on the prototype it was hanging off 90deg to the M-board. How is it now and have you adjusted for it in your design? Thanks.
I don't know what the final placement is, so to cover all bases... connecting the Pi directly to the board in any orientation should work.  Otherwise, I include a mounting plate which you can attach the Pi to and then connect the Pi it to the board with a cable (not included). |

Let me ask c-scape how it looks now that the prototype is done.

Yes, the case can be easily re-configured in a vertical orientation. Shipping to EU seems to be ranging $55-75 USD. |

assuming the $125 is for the 'case' only... are you selling an option that includes fans and power supply?

No fans. Just the case. Sorry. |

Note that these will support both the current and forthcoming versions of the m-board. More info on this soon.

Although I don't have an m-board here, I've verified as well as I can that the Raspberry Pi will fit either plugged directly into the socket or mounted underneath the board.  |

The case is pre-drilled for all of the mounting holes on the current and forthcoming versions of the m-board. The different widths of the boards is handled by the ability to re-position the two support beams.  |
