SEQ4 Heidenreich Case Bulk 2014 / 2015

[kristal=]

All parcels have been collected and are on their way.

I received the shipping info too. Thanks a lot for organizing this group buy.

My Heidenreich Case has arrived today. Thank you kristal= for organizing this group buy!

[kristal=]

Nice to hear guys, have fun building. I assume the US parcels will take some more time than usual, due to extreme weather. But the postal services will eventually sort this out.

[zephyrin]

I have received my case. Just a question where are the instructions for building the case ?

It's me or there are only 5 faces ? 

[kristal=]

Yes, there are only 5 panels and 8 rails. The building instructions lie within you, as there are none in the outside world. It's not that hard to figure out, have a look at the second photo:

 

edit: something I found today:

For those, who need more visual input for assembling the case.

Yes.

Control panel not included. ;)

Is Batch #3 still open or is that it? Will there be a batch #4?

I sure do want one of those cases

 

Thanks for doing this

[kristal=]

Yes, Batch #3 is still going... I might however hand it over to Julianf, if he doesn't mind. I'm not sure, if I have enough time next year.

Can you tell me what the approx. shipping date might be for batch #3?

[kristal=]

I'm sorry I have no idea. The MOQ is 10 cases, so I guess next year?

Hi there, 

 

added myself to the wiki page for Batch #3. So only 5 cases more to go now.

I am happy to do this, outside of my concerns that i have spoken to you about.

 

It would hopefully also reduce costs for those who would like both a case and a panel set (only one set of shipping costs required).

PM sent... :)

 

@all: I'm currently not answering PMs, since it's very likely that Julian is doing the next batches. Please have some patience, everything is in the works.

Hi all,

 

A newbie here. Can somebody instruct me please how to get the Wiki account so I can add my self to the batch #3 order list?

Thanks!

[julianf]

I dont know if this - 

 

...is still accurate.  Ive just mailed Smash on it.

 

Thank you, 

Julian

[cube48]

Thanks for the heads up. I just PM'd smashtv.

[kristal=]

Updated the wiki... even though it's probably not necessary anymore.

[waveformer]

Please add me to the list with 2 Cases.

 

Cheers Tobias

[kristal=]

done.

[slo]

Can you add me to the wiki for 1 case

 

Thanks

[kristal=]

Okay, so I got some more time for finishing the 3rd batch. I'll order 10 black cases from Heidenreich tomorrow. If somebody needs one and doesn't want to wait 3 months for batch #4, please mail me until tomorrow. All batch #3 participants will get an invoice in the next 4 weeks, since I don't have to pay the cases in advance and 4 weeks is the mean manufacturing time. Stay tuned.

[slo]

woo hoo!

[cube48]

I have been thinking about offering a reduction to the current group buy (only).

 

I think that, now people have confidence in Kristal's group buys, there would be no fear in ordering the panels at the same time (or there abouts) as the cases.

 

So i am thinking something like this - 

 

 

Anyone who is ordering from the current group buy may order a panel set at a reduced rate of GBP 100 for the set (plus shipping / pp charges at cost) with payments taken up until the point where Kristal receives the cases from Heidenreich.

Although it is no quicker in machine time to make multiple panels, it is easier for me, logistically, to make them in groups, rather than bit by bit, so, the reduction in cost is intended to encourage ordering in groups.

Anyone outside of the current group buy (as listed on the wiki) would be excluded from the offer - again encouragement to order as a group (sorry!).

Does that sound like a reasonable plan?

 

Julian, would this be valid for current batch? Is anybody else interested in getting the panels from Julian? 

I'll definitely order from Julian/frontpanels.de but I don't have the back panel layout for MBHP_CORE_STM32F4 yet. All examples I saw seemed to be for 'older' board options. Have to search if there's any existing one already or create one when I have all IO's ready.

I need the back panel for the MBHP_CORE_STM32F also and I'd order from Julian as I have in the past. So the panel set needs an option for the rear panel only to acccomdate those of us with a front panel already.
