Wow.  That wasn't expected.  I don't think I was complaining/crying about anything.  I just don't want an ugly/unstable solution.

Those frames are really easy to put together and even easier to correct mistakes should you make any.

I'm thinking about buying some 4 way connectors to allow myself to stack the 2 frames I have. It would be very simple to do, also doubling up on motherboards and PSUs for maximum hardware density is an idea im toying with.

Openrigs.com is legit and they created and shipped the items they said they would.

Overall they look like great finished products.

Verdict: Happy with them so far... I'll know more once I start adding components to them.

Awesome, thanks for the update and pics!

No offense, but those are pretty ugly. If I'd wanted that, I would have gone that route to begin with.

Yeah those are hideous and would not even hold the GPUs properly so you would still have to rig something together to make it work.  Lord only knows how sturdy they are as well.

Agreed.  And to be honest, this is more of a hobby for me.  I have less than 10MH total.  I'm not trying to cut corners to save every penny possible.  I also happen to like the way electronics look.  Something clean and aesthetically pleasing makes the "hobby" more enjoyable for me.

Now if I had 20+MH and a dedicated server room, I just might be looking for something more economical.  It would not be a solution requiring zip ties however.

The two new rigs I bought these for are up and running, but one is just sitting on a table (USB powered risers) and the other is just mounted to an acrylic sheet. Still looking forward to getting the openrigs, but I'm an impatient bastard.

Good deal! Pm me with some details when you get close.. 
I didnt give mine to much effort. I literally ran through home depot for some odds and ends and there i was hour later with a contraption..

I actually was thinking to myself this maybe a pain in the arse if i have to do this for all my rigs. I quickly had an appreciation for what fluffy and his team put together.. if the situation was different i would have literally ordered 10 from fluffy by now!

With most things in life you pay for everything with cash, time or inconvenience ..

Guess i have more cash then "time"... so it sucks to pay and be inconvenienced too but looking at my sagging lines of gpu's if i had it my way i would pay every time.

Yeah I am building an aluminum and wood hybrid right now.  It looks pretty sleek but it's just a prototype.  I'm going to finish it, then tear it apart and redo the dimensions, then see how much the pricing will be and probably start selling them in the USA.

14/01/2014   Shipped, pending customs check

Does it really take that long for customs to check it? Jesus, I am about to build my own case tomorrow, just can't wait that long Sad

Yeah I started building my case yesterday.  It's almost done.

I'll be selling my Openrig case whenever it arrives... might crack it open first and take a peak at the design though Wink
 



It is what it is..

I wont open it for sure..
There has got to be some bad joo joo coming with that box.. Im gonna have Michale Jackson thriller gloves on, some snow boots, a really big sombrero and one of those sarz masks! There is gonna be a witch doctor ready to spray me down with wild goat blood on contact so the UPS guy is gonna have a hell of a day!

I just had a karma rinse, and donated to an orphanage and everything.. lol Im not letting nothing mess that up!  Are you guys wearing protection fluffy?  Cheesy  Cheesy

--

  .. seriously tho i built a temporary contraption a while back that turned out ok so im up against the fence. Probably end up selling out too. I went the plastic route so im getting some gpu lean from the weight so i may change my mind when i scale up even more..

 
Edit : One of the reasons i chose openrigs was it looks like a really sturdy product. My current setup i spent maybe an hour on so if i do end up opening the openrigs box im sure i will end up keeping it.

Those would look GREAT in a data center - so sleek and industrial! Especially with the reams of duct tape and cable ties to secure everything, it'll really rock that "Made by Child Labour" look!

LOL @ C     Grin

I understand dealing with the surge or demand is tough.. Im a small business owner so i get it. It really sucks being at the mercy of customs and what not... For international orders i think the middle man is a must. I think it would do wonders for the customer experience.
