So I just stumbled upon this, and very excited. Artem even got a source of the rare Intel 1404a shift registers! Not an easy feat.
So I have to ask, has anyone gotten one of these kits built and running? How does it work? Has anyone tried to get PCBWay to make up a case? I suspect they must have to charge at least $600 or more for these low quantity cases. Anyone get a price quote? I always thought that if the sheets were laser cut, bending and painting them wouldn't be terribly hard, and may be a fun project.

Also curious about the case cost! I don't know how many boards or parts sets have been sold, but maybe a group buy is possible?
Thomas, I found your Gerber files on kenbak.com, but I was wondering if you still had the FreePCB files, or even the netlist? I bought a PCB and parts kit from Artem, and I find it helpful to be able to find signals and board locations in a CAD program while I'm assembling and testing.
