 I am retroactively naming this model signet-1.3

 pretty 
 This it to distinguish it from the signet-1.3-n, pictured below.

This is the older model case which had bolts that were visible from the top and required four M2.5 nuts to hold it together.

I thought the nuts would be needed to avoid the screws from stripping out in the plastic case, but it turns out even the test signet-1.3 devices that I've taken apart and put together numerous times have held up just fine.

 It is really nice 🙏. it's a pity that that artisans coop does not deliver it to my adres in the Netherlands 
 That's not the coop's fault, it's mine.

It's not that I want to deny people outside of America, but last time I shipped a small object to France, it got rejected by customs once and ended up costing me $60 USD. Even if everything goes perfectly, it'd be $30 in shipping (for a $55 device).

If anyone in Europe wants to be a distributor I'd be happy to work something out. Me sending one big shipment over there would be tolerable and it could reduce the total shipping costs to Europeans (since shipping things within the EU is much cheaper and easier). 
 thanks for your reply, I thought ooh you can pay with Ideal ( a Dutch way to pay online shops) but not to my adres, so was a bit confused.
I can imagine that is not worth it for you.
would be very nice if someone can take it up here in Europe, I think it is a very nice tool. 
 Is there an option to pick up with either vendor option for signet? 
 Sure. If you want to pick one up in person, I'll accept BTC or USD (in cash, ofc). Heck, I'd even accept 3 kg of PLA+ in trade for one. 😄 
 Fuck yeah 
 Cam we request a case colour? 
 Sure. I am running low right now, so now's a good time to suggest another color. 
 Looks amazing
