A Xometry Case Study
Josh Sniffen, the YouTuber behind Not From Concentrate, wanted to build a one-of-a-kind PC chassis called the HEXO ATX that could use top-tier consumer hardware while staying cool with only two fans. To make the design work, he needed parts made through multiple processes, including CNC machining, sheet metal fabrication, sheet cutting, and SLS 3D printing, along with help optimizing the design for manufacturability.
Xometry provided the manufacturing support he needed, starting with instant quoting and personalized DFM feedback, then backing the project with engineering guidance and order management. Xometry helped produce critical machined, sheet metal, and 3D-printed parts, resolved issues when they came up, and enabled Sniffen to complete his custom chassis with the fit, finish, and performance he wanted.
