This thread is the Stratos/X/Aer series of cases.
Stratos: TBA. Simple APU case.
Stratos X Order: https://j-hackcompany.com/?product=j-hack-stratos-x#case
Stratos Aer: TBA. Single full height slot, 135mm CPU cooler. For the quiet lovers.
The journey 6 years ago, when I first started 3D printed and acrylic designs. I was very much a noobie at the time. I designed the original Stratos as an easy to make acrylic case for APU, using vertical integrated 3d printed part. Since then, I have created the mod corners as an easy way to integrated panel based construction. After a few years, I have designed the next version of mod corners, mod corner type-B. In collaboration with @msystems, we have designed a scalable platform for cases. The first iteration you will see is the Stratos X, designed for LP GPU and HDPLEX 250W Gan units. We focused on building out the tech and the platform, so expect a slew of cases, made right here in USA, for everyone.

After seeing all the great cases everyone has been designing, I attempted to design my own. So far it hasn't been named. I decide to serve the PicoPSU market. For now, let's call this version P3, for prototype and at around 3L.
Supports:
ITX motherboard
2 SSD
CPU Cooler up to 47mm.
The case is made of 3d printed parts and acrylic.
Expected price per unit in low runs is ~$60-90 per case depending on number of orders and color combination. I don't expect to make much of a profit, only enough to support more prototypes and projects.
A second Prototype, P5 will follow that supports Low Profile GPUs.
Currently finishing up designs. I am welcome to feedback. Next step is ordering the prototype, to be done in about 1-2 months.
Here's a question, would you mind a DIY case? The cuts and parts will sourced from 3rd parties and you can order it with color customization. Cost will be higher and the QA/QC will be not be done by me.
