The NUIT40 is off to the fabricators

Below you'll find a sample of the drawings recently shipped off to the fabricators (MP Products LLC).  The project has moved from 6-sided enclosure to a 5-sided enclosure.  Why, you might ask?  Well, simply this;
A 5-sided enclosure like the one we're developing can accommodate a lot of different hardware.  Have your own LCD/LED TV? Awesome, if it fits our interior dimensions, this hood will fit it.  Want to build a DSI, DI, FTIR setup but want something pre-configured?  Well, the NUIT40 can do that too.  The interior is designed to accommodate pre-built or kit-built DSI/FTIR materials.

The real power here is going to be in the hoods ability to be whatever you need it to be for your project, from finished piece to DIY starter.

NUIT40 - The sides will not be transparent in the actual build.

There are two types of support bars; simple straight supports and  "H" bars.  Initially the "H" bar will sport a 300x300mm VESA mount, but alternate "H" configurations will be available shortly after launch.

Oh, and did I mention feet?  This a quick preview of a conceptualization of attaching feet.  We're still working on the final feet designs.  As always, input is welcome!

NUIT40 as a Kiosk, Drafting Table, or Artist Easel? -- why sure!

I hope you enjoyed the preview.  I should have some pictures of the pre-release prototype available from our friends at MP Products, if all goes as planned, in the coming weeks.  And one more image...
