Thank you I just got my frame today...I'm a little confused on the bag with the two nylon spacers.  Its unmarked.  What is it for?  I think its for mounting the H-board spacers.  I'll show completed pics once my hash-power comes around...My only other wish is that your kit came with an exploded diagram of how it all goes together and also if I could get a parts list.  Thank you for the small wera wrenches - that was a really nice touch! 

Is it easier to get everything mounted in first AND THEN to mount in my M-board and H-board hardware or the other way around?  get those installled first then mount my fans and PSU? 

The two little nylon spacers are "extra" parts to mount what-nots, do-dads, etc.   Grin

There should be a big bag of nylon spacers to separate the h-boards.

Assemble the entire case first, along with any fan tabs.  Then mount m-board, h-board, fans, pi and PSU.

Thanks Spotswood!  Very happy with my case.  I have not figured out how to get the power supply mounted but all else is great.  I had some minor issues with the location of some of the nuts in the slots being on the wrong sides but I took it apart and got it right.  Tightened up the case feels and looks great. It is much better having my hardware locked in the sturdy frame vs having it on a cardboard box.  Smiley

Newegg had those for $9.99 about 3 weeks ago. I got 12 of them and they are great, virtually silent.

120mm

In fact, there is a special price right now for a 4 pack of cooler master fans on amazon right now.

Order and payment do it.  Grin

What is the recommended fan diameter?

Someone who does not respond to emails to potential buyers is someone who does not want to sell. Mail sent 7 days ago and still hope to answer the total cost for ordering.

I somehow missed his/her email, I sent a PM to fix this.  Huh   Shocked

The BFs don't seem to run better without a whole lot of cooling, so I've simplified the design a bit.
If you're doing a v3 make it shorter than 475mm so it can fit in a rack between the posts -mounting the psu in the middle instead of 1 of the fans shoudl do it Smiley

Will these work for asicminer blades or no?

No, but the same material could be used to house those.  Is there a mechanical drawing of one of those blades?

Shocked  Nice.

The mounting plate for the rPi was really only intended for v1 m-boards and the use of the ribbon cable.  

I'm open to suggestions for how to properly mount the rPi to the case for v2 boards.   Grin

The posted assembly instructions is for v1 m-boards and needs to be updated for v2.   Cry

... of that sounds fine ... i will remove that plate ... its unnecessary in my opinion as the raspberry seems to hold good on the m-board ... i will start mounting the fans ... today ... and show again some pictures ... :-) i have a fan controller so i can turn them off as for now it seems the miner is performing best without to much cooling ...

That looks really good.  How well does the case hold the h-boards steady?

/cet

Yeah, I'm hoping I got the height just right (not too tight or too loose).
