Feasible yes. Reading Steve's latest post on CN it appears the case will be offered without the filter wheel. Can't see why you could not make your own case, although a molded composite case will likely be heavier than a cnc'd aluminium one designed to hold the pcb. I don't care for his idea to use an aluminium cold finger and I plan to use copper, at least against the TEC to improve heat transfer. I ill also be using a good heat extraction fan on the rear heatsink. It looks like OSC and Mono will be catered for so that's good. You could potentially build it as OSC and later debayer the sensor and add the filter wheel for mono operation if you wished.
I won't build mine until Steve has it working and components finalised qnd proven. Importantly, power supply management, noise, etc need to be proven.
