About Artisan Case v2
For this revision, my goal is to provide an archival quality artisan storage experience.
After living with the Artisan Case v1 for over a year, an insight developed that home access, UV protection, and enjoyment were all important factors to account for.
This resulted in a cleaner aesthetic without the lid screws, and the addition of an acrylic stand to proudly display your resin collection.
You will find that this case is effortless to use, with precise internal measurements to ensure easy access and enough headspace to accommodate 99% of artisans on the market.
Included with each case is a museum grade UV filtering lid, travel foam, silicone locking band, timestamp ring, and display stand.


Specifications
- 54 Slots (6x9)
- Precision Machined CNC Acrylic Case
- Glass Bead Blasted Finish
- PlexiGlass Hard Coated Lid with UV Protection - more details on PlexiGlass UV Hard Coat
- Acrylic Display Stand
- Charcoal Travel Foam
- Translucent Silicone Travel Band
- Translucent Bump-on x 4
- Timestamp Ring
- Cell Dimensions (LxWxH): 0.83" x .0.83" x 0.81"
- Cell Wall Height: 0.34"







Acrylic display stand



Soft travel foam and silicone travel band to keep your caps safe during travel
*note that production band will be translucent



Stackable with thick 3/8" bump-ons





Lead Time
Production lead times will be 8-10 weeks from the time of the order submitted.

Quantity
Group buy minimum order quantity is 150 units, first come first served. I will leave the form open for one week, or if 200 orders are received, whichever comes first.

Price
$148 per unit, with a maximum of (6) cases per order.

Shipping
Shipping will be invoiced separately, once the cases are ready to go.

Hayt is an awesome dude.  Have 2 of his v1 cases and they are by far the nicest I have owned.  Dont hesitate on the price when you have spent thousands on resin.

Looks like it - if you were to transport the case you'd have to put the band on.

Yes, gravity fit only. This was my insight after the last year of having a case. This is really all that is needed 98% of the time. If you need to travel, the foam and band will be there to keep your resin safe :)

Hey there, last go around I shipped everything via USPS. Feel free to hit me up on discord @ hayt#8888 or via PM on GH if you'd like to discuss which option you would prefer. I will not be invoicing for shipping fees until I have the cases on hand, so we have a little time.

By way of a quick update. As of this morning, we are to 146 cases ordered.

I will continue with the plan to close the GB on Thursday, August 7th, unless 200 cases are ordered before then. At that time I'll begin invoicing.

Thanks, everyone for your support!

Last GB CONUS shipping ranged from $8-12 via Priority shipping depending on the location. This time around I may opt for medium flat rate boxes for all CONUS participants which will be approximately $13 per individual (given this case is a bit larger than v1).


So we'll be invoiced after the GB closes, and then a second time for shipping?


Yes!


Quick update - we are up to 187 units spoken for. I'm going to leave the form up for two more days but will be starting the invoice process shortly. My goal is to pull the trigger with manufacturing by end of the week so we can get this show on the road  :thumb:

Thanks all!

Ayy - I've had a few questions on payment timing.

If possible, I would like to gather all invoices by this weekend. If there are unpaid invoices still pending next week, I will most likely begin to cancel those. If you need more time, please contact me directly.


Currently in the process of submitting the finalized manufacturing order today/tomorrow.


As a note, if anyone would like to get in touch with me to discuss any details of the GB, feel free to contact me on any of the following platforms:

GB is closed. I'm submitting the order with the Manu later today.

Here is the tentative timeline:

Final Production Prototype: 2 weeks + 1 week for shipping and review
Production: 6 weeks + 2 weeks for shipping and QC
Shipping & Invoicing: 2 weeks


Will keep you all posted! Thank you again for the amazing turn out and support. We are running the full 200 order quantity.

Quick update, the manufacture and I have agreed on the final bead blast spec (case on the right), and they have sent me the final sample for production approval. At this point, I'm targeting mid-October to receive and begin shipping the orders.

Quick update. After receiving the final prototype with the bead blast effect shown in my previous post, I changed my mind on approval as I was not 100% satisfied with the level of transparency. We went back and produced an additional sample with a slightly heavier bead blast, which meets my desired aesthetic.

Manufacturing is currently quoting a ship date of October 20th (subject to change, of course), which leads me to my current estimate for starting to ship cases by the beginning of November. Here is the updated blasting spec:

So I'm sure we'll get an update after the 20th

Hi All,

We're still on track with the manufacture, who expects to ship in the next few days.

My plan will be to receive, conduct QC, and fully assemble and package all sets next weekend.

Following that, I will begin invoicing for shipping.

More to follow,
Greg
