Cory is working on getting a batch of custom Bud chassis made for the SCELBI and needs a head count.

Here is the information that Cory has on this custom build

I have gotten a quote from Bud on a custom chassis to match the measurements we have of the “factory” one.

The chassis will still require drilling for holes, but will be 3.5″ and will have the cutout for the backplane. I didn’t want to have the holes cut because I’m not sure exactly how that will turn out. But holes should be easy with the correct bit and hole saw (cheap and easy enough).

The cost is around $43 for each plus shipping for a quality of 10. Since I have to order them together figure with shipping of the 10 to my home and then shipping it back out, the final cost should be around $60 each. I’m in for 2 plus 1 for the MARCH museum at InfoAge in NJ. So that is 3 out of the 10. If we order 20, the cost is about 4 dollars less per unit, so I’m not too concerned about making 20. But 10 would be the minimum order.

Who else is in and how many do you want? I’d like to place the order early next week. Also for the front panel I just need some final double checking of measurements so I can double check the front panel, they will be around $100 plus shipping in anodized blue with engraving/white paint for the lettering. I will also be placing orders for some without engraving so that we can use a home silk screen kit to make the lettering. When I’m ready to order just let me know which type you want.
