Storage options like the Evil Box are very simple and are mass produced (in comparison with a GB structure). It's smaller, the lid literally falls off when you flip it over and doesn't include travel foam to keep your caps in their slots when the box is vertical or upside down.
Also of note, this box is slightly taller than an Evil Box or even Hayt's box so your tall caps (2-2-Roe, Jelly Key reindeer, etc) will fit inside.

Would love personally to see colored acrylic or even a ALU bottom.
I know it's hard to compare a GB price with a vendor like Kprepuplic, but under 20 USD for a "little" smaller and similar design case. If paying a "premium" for a artisan case, I would want it to be a little more distinguish. I would not mind paying 20-30 more for more luxury :)

There are some artisans that do not have the generic circular stem and might have square stems or even stems that are bigger. How are you planning to accommodate them?
The hole is only for Topre stems since they hang below the skirt of the cap. Square or other non-circular MX stems are not a concern since they don't hang low.
I know this is a new feature that hasn't been included on other boxes (correct me if I'm wrong about that) but it doesn't affect MX or Alps artisans, it simply allows Topre artisans to sit flat in their cell without rattling around like they do in other boxes.

If you want a piece of unsolicited advice, take a look at injection molding instead of CNC. Initial cost is higher but you can scale up much more easily. In my experience, people really don’t want to pay $100 bucks for a machined plastic part, and if you can get into the $40-60 range these will sell like gangbusters. Either way, reaching 50 moq shouldn’t be an issue. Hit me up on discord if you want to chat more!

Also, I'll be at KeyCon so you can see/handle Ice Box in person if you're also attending!

Found a place to get custom elastic straps! Working on picking 2 colors to offer with the case. GB is just around the corner now, so final details (pricing, what's included, etc) should be available in the next week or 2.

Here's the latest photos showing the final foam and all the parts (elastic, feet, lid):

Would you consider doing a square / smaller one like 5x10 or 7x7 perhaps?
Also that elastic band would be more aesthetically pleasing with more width imo.

After this GB, I'll consider running smaller sizes. Also looking at other materials but they won't be as nice for viewing since PC is translucent so you get more light on the caps.

Please don’t change your material to acrylic. Poly is a huge selling point for me.

Oh, no. I like PC as a plastic. I was talking about looking into wood and other non-plastic materials...

Also, for the bands, I agree with what has been said previously that a wider band may be better (and look better), but I'd be down to save a little on the overall cost if you don't get the bands customized. That's just me though.

I considered it but it added too much complexity to the product page. I'm planning to have extra elastic straps on the site though for people who want them for other boxes, so mix-and-match is certainly possible.

Is there a GB thread we should be following now? I looked but couldn’t find one.
Because I'm running it through my site, there's no MOQ that would cause this to be cancelled, and GH mods are slow to approve GB threads (in my experience), I decided not to make one. I'm going to be posting updates to Reddit every week or 2 and may setup a blog on the site to track progress if needed.

Any updates on how production is going?
I received a production sample for the box and OK'd for the rest to be produced. I got a quote for product boxes, and will be submitting that order this weekend. With the current production schedule, I should have all the parts in hand in the first week of November which should put shipping right on target for mid November.

I'm still waiting on a shipping notification for the boxes and the legs. I will update again on Wednesday, but if they don't ship to me in the next 2 days, I will likely have to push out fulfillment by a week.
I did get a video showing legs will fit securely (there were issues with my production sample so I had to modify and have the legs remade): https://imgur.com/KjNkSV5
I'll be updating this thread every Monday until everything is shipped. Sorry for the lukewarm news and I appreciate your support and trust. The finish line is just around the bend!

Do you plan on having extras? I didn't end up getting it, but my collection has grown faster than I expected and I now I could use a larger box.
As long as nothing is lost after I ship all the orders, there will be limited extras. I'll announce extras everywhere (Insta, Reddit, here) before they're put up for sale.
Why do these boxes always just support 1u?? There are some return or space artisan!!!
There are some boxes that allow for longer keys. I have a few more case design ideas and some allow for longer keys. I know some people would like a box that could even hold a spacebar, so maybe some special boxes are in our future.
Post by: RobotCandyCompany on Fri, 15 November 2019, 15:49:06
Manu hasn't gotten back to me on the cases. Boo!
Here's some of the foam that I've been laser cuttin' for the cases:
(https://i.imgur.com/bAgPEYE.jpg)
This means that I'm going to move the target ship date to the 25th. I'm bummed that we're behind, but it should only take a day to pack and ship all the orders once I have the parts in hand.
Next update will be on Monday. I'll likely update late in the day so I can show packaging off in the update.

This is a major bummer, but I'm pre-prepping/staging all the packaging, foam, etc in the shipping boxes so that as soon as I have the cases in hand, I can get 'em boxed and shipped.
I'll update as soon as I get another email from the manufacturer.
Also, there will likely be VERY limited extras. I will update everywhere when I have a release date for them (after all orders are shipped).

Thanks for hanging in there everyone and sorry again for the delay.

There are a very limited number of extras available for this round of Ice Box. I'll be making them available on Tuesday, Dec 17 at noon PST. They will be sold via my site (http://robotcandy.company) and will be FCFS. I'll create the product pages this weekend and post links on Monday so that you know exactly where to go. I ran this GB with tight margins so extras will be priced at $99. B stock extras will be $89.
More people have asked about extras than I have units to distribute, so qty will be limited to 1 per person. They will likely sell out very quickly, so don't be too sad if you can't get one.
Let's do it all over again.
Because of the high demand and the number of people that have contacted me expressing sadness for missing the original GB, I'm going to run another round of the Ice Box. I'll be starting round 2 on Wednesday, Dec 18 and running it through Jan 18 on my site. Just like the extras, pricing will be $99 for kits including the legs. I'll be creating a proper GB thread on Geekhack this time to track progress and provide updates. I'm planning to have round 2 shipped by mid-march now that I fully understand the scope of this project and have my suppliers lined up and prepared for what is needed to pull this off.
Thank you all for the support and I look forward to seeing your collections nestled in your Ice Boxes at meetups and in photos across social media!

What are some examples of the B stocks? Is it scratched lids, chipped cases or?
Post by: mfmunh on Sat, 14 December 2019, 17:14:15
My only feedfoward is to have rubber feet that is slightly thicker. My Ice Box is slightly wrapped in the bottom center, so on flat surface, the rubber hardly make surface contact.
Pro-tip: leaving the foam insert outside in direct sunlight help reduce the odor. I left mine out for about 2hr in ~74 degrees.

Some thoughts now that they're in:
- Sort of wish I'd bought the legs. Will any extras of those be available separate from buying whole new boxes?
- I had a very hard time getting the lids in at first. In case anyone else has the same issue: flipping them over did the trick. Doh.
- Some of the width tolerances are just slightly too tight for wider caps -- some of my colonels and dollies either won't slide in or required a decent bit of jiggling. An extra millimeter seems like it would do it.

In order to not fluster people during checkout, all extras will come with tilting legs and black bands and will be priced at $89. Limit 1 per order. If you'd like blue bands, you can PM or email me your order number and I'll swap 'em out.
If you have questions, I'll do my best to answer them here (or you can PM/email if you'd like).

Are there any flawless spares being held in reserve to cover possible issues for round 1 participants?
I am working with the manufacturer to replace faulty units, but currently have nothing on hand. If there are issues, I'll deal with them on a case-by-case (no pun intended) basis.
I am making sure that R2 includes more extras to cover any loss/shipping damage and that QC on the factory end is held to a much higher standard.

Any chance of having a single, wider elastic band instead of 2 slim bands? Aesthetically it would look better imo.
Also, any chance of increasing the tenting angle of using the legs? Since this box is kinda big, the current leg height / tenting angle seems rather flat.

I don't think I'll re-do the bands or legs for R2. I'd like to keep everything the same to minimize any potential issues and keep the GB on track. I'm working on other projects and I'll keep your suggestions in mind moving forward.
I do have an acrylic stand in the works (similar to my Kickstands) that'll hold any artisan box at a 40 degree angle (versus the legs which is 20 degrees).

I do have an acrylic stand in the works (similar to my Kickstands) that'll hold any artisan box at a 40 degree angle (versus the legs which is 20 degrees).
Ah fair enough. I would worry a little about having acrylic stand against a polycarbonate though. Wouldn’t that scratch it easily?

For me, the lid tolerances are a bit _too_ tight. It’s hard to remove and tricky to put back on (even when following the included instructions), but maybe that’s a plus for some people who won’t open the box as much as me.
I also wish that the box ended up being a pure white rather than a shade of grey. Day-to-day it doesn’t matter much, but I find myself troubled by it when I take pictures of my caps in the box.

Quick question is the white layer on the lid supposed to be peeled off or is it supposed to stay. Just asking before I do something I'll regret. :)Yup, peel it off. It’s just there to protect the acrylic from scratches during shipping.

What lids did everyone else get? I also sent you a PM, RobotCandyCompany.
Edit: Nevermind. RCC told me there's a film on the lid that I forgot to take off. Maybe it was mentioned here in this thread but I was too lazy to read. Sorry!
