Pressure Drop PaperHub

The Pressure Drop PaperHub hides a four pot USB hub and five port FireWire hub in a beautiful, sleek aluminum sheetmetal enclosure. All the cables are hidden at the rear, and the whole device operates from a single power supply to decrease cable clutter. Perhaps the largest challenge with this project was how to take the original designer’s concept and figure out how to produce it in sheetmetal in low volumes. The end result was manufacturable without any custom tooling and no second ops other than hardware installation and anodizing.
