Initial Prototype
What’s changed since the prototype?
Modified the overall design a little bit: -
Tightened the case slot, more aligned with the keycaps
Centered the USB port
-
Rounded the outer corners for a more pleasant look
-
The overall “extrusion” of the case
What’s next? Finish refinement of the design
Consider review units to send out
Consider possibilities of included keycaps
Consider molded feet, rather than diecut
-
Consider plate standoffs for easy reassembly, or an alternative
-
Consider other case materials, such as brass, stainless steel, PC, etc.
-
Consider final colors, and ano vs e-coating
