The enclosure can easily be printed on a 30×30 cm FDM print bed and looks very similar to the GRiD Compass. Once printed, sanded and primed, the surface is then finished with Tamiya metallic black paint (TS-40) as well as a a touch of silver dry brush to give it a metal look. Since it contains a Framework 13 Mainboard, you get an 11th-gen Intel Core processor, two SODIMM slots (up to 64GB of RAM), two M.2 slots for SSDs. More information here.
