Hello fellow keyboarders!
My name is Zaidh and I am relatively new to the custom mech scene. After using the KBD67 Lite and falling in love with it over the last few months I have come to find myself wanting a more premium board. I wanted something more upmarket and premium, but at the same time didn’t want to accumulate more keyboards than I need. So naturally, I thought what if I could design my own case, and because this hobby is community heavy it would be much easier than many other hobbies to create my own design. So I have!
I know the KBD67V3 exists but I want something more custom/personal.

Features:

  • True gasket mount implementation
  • CNC Aluminium 6061
  • Mirror finish, polished stainless steel weight.
  • Extras - FR4 plate, stainless steel plate, stainless steel polished interior weights.
    I have kept the design a little more simple with a hint of luxury, in my opinion. While designing I thought why not make it a little more bouncy as I can hardly perceive the flex of the board as it is and so I have added support for poron gaskets.
    I thought it great to also include the option of plates since I find the sound profile of the PC plate not to my liking and I love the idea of having the option of many sound profiles on the same board. So, there extras of an FR4 plate and a stainless steel plates
    The design is not final and I think it needs some revision but I want to get some ideas from you guys going forward.
