    I have interest, installing the din-rail for the power supplies would make it nice and clean. Comments from what I read in chat I agree as well as with Jon on the power connector. The ac out idea for a switch etc was also nice but not a must have.

    To be semi silly, a small run of copper tubing and some hardware the baseplate could be water cooled.

    giving platinum a headache is always an admiral goal.

    i saw a couple of the earlier model cases at SELEM... they are very very nice.

    suppose you're thinkin' about a plate o' shrimp. Suddenly someone'll say, like, plate, or shrimp, or plate o' shrimp out of the blue, no explanation. No point in lookin' for one, either. It's all part of a cosmic unconciousness.

    Well thank you, but these are going to make the prototypes look like they were made with a jigsaw and a drill press haha we learned a lot building those two cases.
    Neat!

    I updated the top post with the latest revisions:

    - Added cutout for one Neutrik RJ-45 which can also be used for various other Neutrik connectors like the PowerCon series.
    - Changed cutout for the power switch to a more standard 20mm in case a different switch is preferred
    - Moved IEC cutout back down, off the sub-panel
    - Realigned things a bit


    Anything else you'd like to see changed before a run of these is produced? If a blank plate is desired, they will be available for a small charge or one can supply their own, of course. I considered adding a total of three RJ-45 cutouts, but decided to go with one on the stock sub-panel. There's always the Stanwax ILDA-Cat-5 adapter.

    As for locking power receptacles, I found these:

    They're available for pretty cheap and fit a standard IEC cutout, from what I can tell. Not only that, but in a pinch, one can use a standard power cable.

    Lastly, a finned top plate is something I'm still researching but it would probably have to be a custom option, due to the mill time required for it to be machined properly.

    EDIT: actually read your whole post.Are you referring to underside of the optic deck? if so would this be optional? as I was going to mount on both surface sides and TEC cool. thanks

    Awesome updates

    Started a new thread, now that these are up on the site and orders can be placed.
    Here's a link to that thread.

    Lead time is 3-4 weeks and a run of these will be started once there are a couple of orders.

    A big thank you to everyone for the feature requests!
