Title: ALU case GB round 3 red color done, new image uploaded!!!
Post by: imsto on Tue, 11 June 2013, 11:30:43
hi guys, here's the ALU GB round 3, new design, better material and better quality.
only 3 color available

RED    SILVER     TITANIUM

price for the new design is 175$


the old design case is still available, could see some images here:  http://geekhack.org/index.php?topic=35213.0
also red silver titanium available.
price for the old design is 135$

the case fits poker/poker2/pure/pure pro. so if GH60 got the same size and screw position, the it could be put into he case.
seems GH60 got the same size as poker.
shipping: will be shipped with the postoffice airline package with tracking, or by FEDEX.
the shiping cost is 40$, the package is over 2KG. (will check the exact shipping cost)
 
will take few weeks for the producing.

order here:   https://docs.google.com/forms/d/1682sdhUOzZh9r_kN1u4McuhTadsZMRmAQqIS56G6NvY/viewform
order deadline 25th June, seems there're too many orders, the stop date get earlier.
so will stop at 18th June.

will the other color samples later.

titanium is the same color as the space bar. [attachimg=7]

the case will be done from these plate ALU board. The boards are not made in China..  that's why it's expensive than the old ones.
and the CNC will take more time because the new design is more complicate that a normal 'case'
I know the quality of GB2 is not so good as GB1, so we are try to make the best procedure to be able control the quality to be the better.

Just to clarify, these will fit GH60 PCBs and plates. GON has been pushing to make the GH60 PCBs fit his own standards and cases, but we've decided to go with our original plan for compatibility with poker cases.

Thank you for that.  This case looks amazing and many of GON's cases look great, but they're way outside my price range and I'm sure the price range of others out there.  The nice, cheap Poker/Pure plastic tray compatibility is good for people like me.

Holy, the price is so damn high but holy crap it does look cool. If it's 100% it'll fit a gh60 no matter the layout I'm seriously considering. Please doubletriplequadriple confirm this.

Also, are the pics of titanium color or silver?

Of course this case is different, but just a heads up

i believe that is a poker II pictured in the last shot judging by the vortex plate pictured, though it could be a PURE pro as well. Point is a plate is pictured; also the round 2 cases are pictured around geekhack (see poker picture thread) with plated pokers.

The flatter is 60%, the other case is for Race and probably not happening for this GB.

The logo is the Manfacture's logo
It's a very famous guy in china, the titanium skull key is his production.

Two case are all for poker. Will be made with the same matrial.
The old one is the same as the laser two gb. Simple flaw case.
The new design is more heavy than the old one. The shipping is also be a litte cheap.
About the shipping I will ask the agent for a exact price.

The case in OP is silver. The titanium one, according to imsto, should be the same color as the sandblasted titanium space bars.

Ordered a new design in silver, I just know I would regret not getting one when people start posting pictures of them.

I just got into mechs a little over a month ago and I already have 2 boards and a GH60 on the way.
And now I'm about to drop over 200$ on a case, this does not bode well...

Its a common American theme.

Its used as a joke to say the wife rules the house. But there is some truth to that in many homes.

Its probably a combination of the pussification of the male species in America along with other equality issues.

There is a common idea that everything will be ok if the man just does what the wife says.

In the long term it might not be that beneficial to the relationship as a whole.

This isn't every relationship or marriage.

Feng has also been doing a group buy for this case as well and in this post (http://geekhack.org/index.php?topic=45085.msg951450#msg951450) he shows that it does have the center mount. We'll need IMSTO to confirm for sure, but I would assume that they are both selling the same case, so both should have it.

I don't know for certain, but this case does not appear to be as shallow and low-profile as the Vortex Aluminum Pure cases. I have one and it is crazy shallow compared to my other cases.

It comes with more than enough screws. They're placed inside the middle of this little plastic bag with the yellow thingy inside http://geekhack.org/index.php?action=dlattach;topic=44619.0;attach=31691;image     

Not proud of how long it took me to figure that one out.

If you need extra, I bought some from McMaster Carr and have a pile of them.

I really wish we could have at least had a picture of some sort to illustrate the color, or a finished one before shipping started but I guess that just makes opening the package upon delivery that much more exciting or disappointing  :-\

My titanium case arrived today but I left my toolkit at work so I can't swap cases yet.  There are chalky spots on the interior and bottom.  I'll try to polish it off and take some pics if people are interested.

Mine looks like it has a slight golden tint at times.  The pictures without the flash are more representative of the actual color, I believe, but the colors seems to change quite a bit with the lighting.

If your location is NJ then I'm in a neighboring state and I got mine on Friday.

My DHL order/tracking number doesnt work either. I am not sweating it. The package is probably somewhere in Asia being all mysterious. It will get here when it gets here.

Kind of suprised i am going to be receiving this before my TEAM REDLINE DSA DOLCH replca set.  I really thought i was going to get the caps before the case. Looks like IMSTO just guaranteed himself more business from me (barring my case arrives as requested). 

The only thing that makes me nervous is the DHL order and tracking number similar to a GH'er who lives in Italy. I am really hoping it isnt USA->FEDEX and DHL->Europe cause then my package will end up on the wrong side of the planet.

The Titanium colour is really great, some kind of warm gold/grey/silver, depending on the light. And it just feels incredibly solid.

Weird that it's DHL anyway, since I'm in the US.

Same, my tracking number isn't working but I cough it up to it being shipped later than the others (based on the number being well off from the ones at the top of the spreadsheet)

My two cases arrived as well. I didn't even have to pay custom fees.

The new design (red case) feels 3x heavier than the old design (silver case). I will probably put my ducky Mini in it  :cool:

That red is stunning, can't wait to see a board in that thing

By the way guys:

Did you install this mesh thingy?

(http://geekhack.org/index.php?action=dlattach;topic=44619.0;attach=31690;image)

I assume it has to be put under the PCB to prevent contact with the case right?

Is it really necessary? I found it after I installed my Poker in the new case and don't wanna unscrew everything again :confused:

LOL! Yeah, it goes inside the case. I made one for my Duck Poker out of shelf liner. Don't know if it actually serves a purpose, but it's a nice touch.

Yours actually looks gray/dark silver in that picture.  Mine is golden.  I even took it to work with me and asked 5 co-workers what the color is.  Every one of them said "gold", while gray/silver didn't even enter into their minds.

I love the heft of the case, the shape of it and the way it feels when I type but I have to admit that the color is really off-putting.  Also, the case wobbles slightly on the bottom left corner.  Replacing the pad might fix this but given the price, it's a little disconcerting :(

I don't mean to try to bum anyone out but I'd like to know whether other titanium cases have the same color issue.

I got my titanium case today and absolutely love it. I threw an unmodified pure with MX Reds in it and it already feels really solid because of the case and the way I installed the mat (double layered it far away from the screw stand offs). Once I tune the switches and install a plate it'll be my favorite 60% I'm sure. Only decision is to wait to tune and build it all with GH60 PCB or give in to my impatience and do it now with the pure and rebuild later.

The color looks really good, but is a little more of a semi-glare anodize than a matte anodize that titanium looks like. In little to no light the color is dark, but with light shining off of it it can almost look silver. It also does have a weird greenish/gold hue to it in some lighting situations as well. GON sells all his cases with non-glare, semi-glare, and glare options when he anodizes so you can kind of see what I mean about a semi-glare anodize if you compare some of the GON options of the same color but tweaked glare options.

I'm curious to see how this compares to the Premium FMJ case and the LZ-CE.

Also does anyone know if these were hard anodized? I don't want to take something sharp to it to test out if they aren't :p

What do you mean by double layer? My mat exactly covers the size of the case. Could you fold it and still cover the entire bottom?

My mat was a little bit longer and I had to cut it down to size. With the small strip, small squares I cut out for the USB port, and the dip switches in the bottom I doubled up. I put a long strip where "U, I, O, P" are, and the smaller squares around where "E, D, F" are. Pretty much in the middle as far away from standoffs as possible.

PS: badcop's pictures look pretty accurate to what I'm seeing on mine.

i guess black POM caps will have to do until my TEAM REDLINE caps finally show up.  :p :p

this is really high quality work.  i see no blemishes or scratches at all on my case. the color is really nice and i like how it changes as lighting conditions adjust. this is some high quality **** right here. IMSTO has a customer for life.

Here's a comparison of the color against the standard Apple silver so you can see the difference in color:

There are a couple of minor blemishes in the finish here or there. At first I thought they might be dirt, but Windex didn't seem to have any affect. You can see it a little bit in the photo below, but I'm happy to say that there aren't any issues in the CNC work and it's amazing how clean the cuts are.

I ordered this case to go with my Poker X (MX-Black) with Round 3 caps, I'm really thrilled with the results.

Holy crap Mashby that's gorgeous!

I just got my own case today, and wow I'm stunned. I've got R3 jelly. Hope my board ends up half as classy as that! :)

I received my two cases but one of them is missing the rubber pads that go on the bottom.  :(

These cases are awesome guys! Can anyone who purchased a red case tell me if the red is a flat matte red or a metallic red?

It is kinda like a metallic red due to the semi-glare surface.

I wish I had two of these. FMJ 60% and LZ-CE will have to do. I'm glad everyone for the most part has been happy with their purchase.

At first glance, I thought this was my Poker X in a Duck Poker case (http://www.flickr.com/photos/compactkey/9635842415/in/set-72157635316703396), however, seeing the ISO layout made me scratch my head. Really nice Ducky Mini there! Clearly great minds think alike.  ;D

Got mine, nice colour, shame about the scuffs (got a visible one on the top lip). Customs rang me up and asked i provided a receipt, I assume they didn't believe it was $18, i gave them another price but not heard anything about paying import duty. Would have been nice to inform us before hand about that!

£22 ($35) import duty <_< Don't think they believed imo on the $18 unit cost and rang me up, i had to show them my "receipt" to process the package. Be aware if UK peeps not got theirs yet, tell them its $18!

I had a duty charge in Canada too. Was only around $13 (taxes on $36 + $8 paperwork/customs fee). Would have been alot worse if the cases were declared at original value. At least it wasn't as bad as the $70 fee I had on my $400 order from Elite Keyboards.

it was only as cheap as that because i doctored the receipt. Down to $50 from $160~

Why not all the way to 18$? Like I previously said, surely a block of aluminium can't cost more than that in the eyes of the common folk.

wasn't informed of the $18 till it was to late. I had to make a number up.

Well obviously it depends on your country's legislation, for me it's supposedly >21€ in value.

50 is better than 160 tho :D And she is a thing of beaty isn't she?

This GB is over, right?

Also, how close does the silver one match Apple's aluminium finish?
