Old Title: KIBO K1 DIY Clean Minimal 3D Print Optimized Case
Alternate Title: Minimal Clean Look 3D Print optimized 10.7 L Case
Thanks for looking into my newbie post here!

K2 Concept with lighting and acrylic sidepanels
This will mainly be a DIY Project as for now
The primary production process would be 3D Printing / CNC
I am planning this Project as a design series:
K1 Sandwich-SFF-Case ~10L
K2 Sandwich-Showcase ~15L
K3 Sandwich-Space-optimized <9L
For the near future I plan on putting together "hardware kits"(Screws and acrylic panels) and STL-files

Introduction
With the 3D printing community growing in size and Printers getting more affordable,
I have seen many Case Projects aiming for modularity and space efficiency.
What was missing for me were clean designs with clean Surfaces and full length GPU support.
I am not saying, that my design will be flawless.
I am aiming for the following design features:
- lightweightness (<1kg)
- modularity in the sense of mobility (hotswap modules, fan & filter modules)
- standardization of core elements for future modding

K2 Concept Fan-module
What „3D Print Optimized“ means:
- Support-structure used sparingly (edited)
- Printable with most FDM-Printers (minimum Printsurface: 200x200mm)
With my Goals set up, I went to the drawing board and started the design process.

K1 9.8
The following are the features of my current K1 2. iteration, I am most proud of:
- Printable with most FDM-Printers (minimum Printsurface: 200x150mm)
- full size 2 Slot GPU (max 140x64x300mm)
- fits the most of the 240mm Radiators regardless of thickness (max width & length 124x282)
- Size: 145x315x215mm ~9.8L
- with these measurements it would fit perfectly into my Muji magazine organizer for a much cleaner look

List of materials:
- <1kg Filament
- 40 M3x6 + 40 M3x10 + 40 M3x20 countersunk screws
- optional acrylic sidepanels (2x 290x190x3mm) save 110g Filament per panel
Note: tempered glass is too expensive for a small volume Run, but u can find scratch resistent acrylic panels
