are we a loud to use the stl files on public pay services to have them made if we don't try to sell it as ours which i won't do . stealing is bad and in the end no one gets any were .
This is really expensive to print from shapeways.com not worth the cost.


noticed some one told me to ask some one on the forums . id be better off after i did some more research, buying my own 3d printer in the long run, then let them do it shapeways.com or any the online services that offer it. So ill stick to member here or may be one day buy one at 400, that 400$ model  would suit my use, I remember, a few years back the 400 dollar one going for 5 k or more so i never bored or gave it a thought  Grin Cheesy

but now it is temping there not expensive anymore.

Here are both of my miners with the main boards screwed onto the top plates. The screws screw in into the plastic perfectly. I prefer having my ethernet cable running out of the miner at the top. It's also easier to see status lights and ethernet activity. It is just as easy to have it all on the bottom.



I was also playing around with a vertical design, but was placing it the other way with the fan being on the opposite side (as it comes stock).

What's the benefit of having the side with the ethernet jack face upwards with the fan on the bottom vs. the stock layout of the fan being on the side with the ethernet jack? I found the temperatures were cooler running it vertically with Ethernet side down.

Here's a sound comparison of 2 different setups you can have with printed mods and a comparison with stock fan as well. Absolute loudness cannot be properly shown through video, but relative loudness of one setup compared to the other can easily be observed.

The video is here:

U dont happen to have a C1 do u?? If u could come up with something for it, I'll gladly pay u for it...

I don't have a C1, only 2 S5s. Since C1 is water cooled I don't see an improvement that could be made over that. Water cooling my S5s was one of the options I was considering prior to going into development presented mods.


And with the green really pop's and looks amazing.

I actually spent all of my black plastic and didn't want to wait for the delivey of another roll (hence the orange back plate on the other miner as well). Grin It did come out better than expected, but this green is of quite a weird tone. It looks different in every photo.

That stock fan literally sounds like a vacuum cleaner! lol

Great to see Bitmain supporting this!  Seems like a promising future on these type of parts.   

Once again impressed with Bitmain Smiley  And still blown away with Vorta's designs.

i made a duct with Aluminium Foil Adhesive and glue to hot temps

i was doing some tests and i think the problem that the heat dont go to the heatsink and stays in the board.
A copper heatsink will solve the problem, may a copper pad with a large surface area do something.
i   will fit some heatsinks in the back off the board.

Great machine main is at 425mhz plus 1380gh

if someone from usa makes these i would be interested in a top and bottom plate set.. i dont need the legs or the fan extension.


Im printing these out for few people in the US once I get my 3d printer up and running again. Ill charge cost in material plus a few bucks for my time and shipping cost. It will probably end up being around 5 bucks a piece.

A full set of the will take around 20 hours to print btw and I need to print 4 sets for me plus two people already wanting them so turn around might be a week or more. I have to buy myself one of those new laser resin printers  Grin

(fyi "cheap" printing shops charge around $10 an hour to print, and were quoting me around 200 to print a set so i didn't have to wait for my printer to finish all of them, which is laughable)

If you do please share.  I would be blown away with one of the new resin printers.  Those are pretty amazing.

I think it might be better off with multiple PLA printer because of cost.  A tip for anyone looking for printers look into "make" community's in bigger cities normally.  There is a lot of printing gear with "makers" and they are normally very nice.   So that is one way possibly to get them printed.
