Completed MJOLNIR: The minimalistic – but not boring – 9.7L Case

[AlexTzone]

You might try and message @Necere from Ncase, they use the same type of cables for the M1.

Thanks you for the tip, will look into it!

Here you go! Cheap and work - I bought 10 of them a few months ago to test them out.

Amazing, thanks alot! What's your opinion on them now that you have done some tests?

From what I can tell, they work fine! I don't have any components that will really stress the PSU and draw a lot of current through the cable so don't know how it would hold up during heavy loads. I can ship you one or two of them if you want to test them out!

Absolutely, there will soon be an update with the prototype

That's so kind of you, we would really appreciate it! Shall we PM you our shipping address?

Sure! I'll try to figure out the cheapest way to ship internationally (I'm guessing you guys aren't in the US).

Hello guys!

There will be 57 screws in each MJOLNIR I case, we are looking for good assembly options. Any tips / ideas regarding how this can be achieved on medium-to-large scale are greatly appreciated

Best,
Alexander

Hello SFF forum! We're back with some updates, check out the new MJOLNIR I renderings

Here is a drop box link (if you prefer that to looking at the images here): https://www.dropbox.com/sh/b0mmqa7gqb9o38w/AAAeMT85b3UDLv-nZ-zbMo2Ba?dl=0

Also, we are currently working on 3D model tolerances to make sure that it is possible to produce.

57 screws seems pretty insane, especially for a unibody design. Not only it potentially complicates the building process, it also can turn into a logistical nightmare for you.

I can understand 11 screws for these:

• 4 for the PSU
• 4 for the Motherboard
• 2 for the PCIe Riser
• 1 for the GPU Bracket

But then there's still another 46 (!) screws for the Mjolnir itself. Considering that none of these are seen from the outside, I wonder where they're at.

They are located on the inner frame, we will show it really soon (after proper production tolerance adjustments). At the same time, we’ll also upload the mounting manual for MJOLNIR I so that the mounting process is easier to evaluate.

The number of screws had me quite worried at first, but considering how easily installable all parts are I think it’s going to be quite fun to put together.

We have talked with different suppliers and made sure that different screw types come in separate sealable plastic bags with clear description stickers. This makes it easier for us to accurately put everything in the box and ship it (and also easier for the end customer to distinguish between them / find them easily).

We are very greatful for your advice and conserns! It helps us understand what is expected, what is okay and not okay etc

Looks good! Can't wait to see the prototype come to life! :-)

Thanks a lot, we're on the way now Already got some custom electronic components made (power cable, power button and riser cable). After proper GD&T adjustments we'll start to prototype the enclosure and inner frame!

 

[AlexTzone]

Do you think we should put sleeves on cables in MJOLNIR I? This concerns the I/O power button, power cable and cables that connect the RGB strips.

In our opinion it adds a premium feel over usual rubber cables.

Another question: How do we remove polls from our posts? Can't seem to find "delete poll" button anywhere

 

[kittysox]

Personally like the sleeved cables, think the case looks really great and I can’t wait to see more.

Thanks for sharing your opinion, it looks like we are going for sleeved cables then.

Thank you, can't wait to start working on the enclosure

Awesome! So poll-removal can only be done by moderators?

Im not actually sure, perhaps someone from site staff can answer this, ive never tested it. I do know however that moderators can edit polls so whilst I cant answer your question i can solve your problem in this instance >.<

Thank you, I'll ask them. Really appreciate the help!
