Those types of boxes are very common in the rock & mineral community for displaying rock slices and such. They can be found in large quantity at wholesale prices around the web

There's a few problems with most of those boxes, unfortunately.
1. They tend to be the wrong size; see my earlier post for dimensions. These (EU, I should note - different card size) playing card boxes are just about the right size for presentation, inclusion of a bit of documentation, and optional SD card with all that's needed to be up and running quickly.
2. They tend to be hard plastics, which tends to crack. PP is a much more forgiving material. Ideally I would have gone for the Antminer U1/U2 / Mycelium Entropy type box, but it won't fit in those - and an AX seller with the same style, but larger, boxes (where it would fit) has not yet responded

Similar styles that are longer and less wide are typically advertised as being for pens and watches, so that can also be a good place to start if anybody wanted to box their bunch.

I really like it aswell nicely done. Maybe on back put history and a little about the miner on the white spot. But very well done. I like it shows the color of the heat sink off.

Thanks, both

Once finished (things need to be changed for the production version, there isn't any actual information at gekkoscience.com as of yet, etc.), I'd be happy to share the files (Inkscape SVG).

I'm supposed to send European customers to the German guy, who has received manufacturing data and tells me he'll be running out a tiny batch to test before doing a full run. Anyone in Europe specifically wanting a GekkoScience-made stick for posterity (like, you know, TheRealSteve) I can probably send a couple, but so's I don't cut in on his turf I'd just as soon stick to the Western Hemisphere.

Yep, I would humbly request (that is to say, get in queue) for at most two. I know the German guy can deliver and am happy to send patronage his way

what about australian based users? we're kinda of helf way between europe and the states.

If only we knew what happened to Barntech Undecided

Though any assembler in AU would still need chips as well anyway. For finished product, maybe you get your pick between US and Germany?
