Introducing the Bahrnob 65

Renders:


Introduction:
Aesthetics and functionality. The board was designed with these two things in mind. We tried to strike a balance between size, practicality, and novel features, all while maintaining what we believe is a sleek, clean, and minimalist form factor. The Bahrnob 65 features a rotary encoder knob, magnetic pen rail, and separate arrow cluster, all in a compact, gasket mounted 65% keyboard.
Specs:

  • 5 degree typing angle
  • Rotary encoder knob
  • Aluminum/Brass magnetic pen rail (Dimensions: LxWxH 314.33mm x 5mm x 8mm) - the bar
  • Separated arrow cluster
  • Dimensions: LxWxH 324.33mm x 119mm x (22mm @thinnest, 32mm @thickest)
  • Weight: depends on materials used

EDITS: 11/15/2020

  • 7 degree typing angle
  • Front height is now 18mm
  • Pen rail headspace changed from 8mm to 12mm
  • Outer corners have been more rounded
  • Bottom weight is now the actual bottom of the case (look at exploded view for reference)
  • Rotary encoder now is no longer flush with the bar and is raised
  • Plate has been updated and mounting notches have been moved
  • Discord has been made! Please join for more immediate updates and renders.

    Assembly:

    Plate:
    The plate will be available in either aluminum, brass or carbon fiber. The plate will be gasket mounted. For the brass and aluminum plate, there will be no mounting notch below the space bar while the carbon fiber plate will have the mounting notch.

    Silicone rubber insert:
    Goes between the pcb and plate for sound dampening.
    Top and bottom casing:
    The middle and top casing will sandwich the plate and be screwed in via 8 screws. Material will be aluminum, available in black, grey, and white colors.
    Bar:
    Dimensions of bar - LxWxH 314.33mm x 5mm x 8mm (it will stick 5 mm out of the case)
    The bar serves as a pen rail, but adds an aesthetic touch to the top of the board. Available in either aluminum or brass. Attaches to the top casing via 6 magnets (3 in the top case and 3 in the bar).
    Rotary Knob:
    It’s a knob yo. Available in either aluminum or brass. Knob height will be flush with the height of the bar.
    PCB:
    In the works. Will post here once finalized. Hotswap possible depending on feedback.
    Cost and Vendors:
    TBD, this is just an IC to see what kind of interest there is for this.
    More info:
    We are in the works of ordering a prototype, but we wanted feedback to see if anything needs to be tweaked or to see if this layout is as clean as we think it is. Please fill out this google form to help us out.
