Interest Form

This is an interest check for a 60% case made out of carbon fiber, a durable and light material. The carbon fiber will be cut with a water jet, so no need to worry about warping or uneven cuts. The case will fit all standard 60% PCBs. It will consist of a top layer, also acting as the switchplate, and a bottom layer. In between the two will be spacers, similar to the JD40 case:



Price estimates are somewhere in the area of $40-70, but that all depends on the number of cases purchased. 50 orders would most likely be needed to keep this pretty reasonable.

Not too bad a price. I'd like the spacers to match the visual style, like with JDcarpe's work. But the real question with carbon fibre, for me, is what's it sound like and how does it feel vs. aluminium and stainless steel?

From what I've heard, it's more sound absorbent than metals, but a little less than acrylic

I certainly love carbon fiber. If we get it at that price, I would join without a doubt.

Well, from my rough estimates, if we get at least 50 orders, it should be around $50-60, any less would be around double that because of the price tiers

Waterjet and carbon? Is the producer Big Blue Saw?

yup

I saw their advertisement here a few days ago, and it sounds interesting for custom bicycle parts.
I had instantly some ideas

May be interested. Depends on my economy in the near future.
