I am contemplating building a TKL case that would resemble the traditional TKL cases that are composed of bottom half, plate, and top half as 3 discrete pieces. What I am thinking of doing is a milled case like this but all one piece. Possibly a second piece as a plate just to add weight to the bottom. The plate would be integrated into the case and switch holes would have to be milled instead of laser or waterjet. So due to large amounts of machine time I understand this will be expensive as it will require at least to setups. One for the plate and above and one for milling out the bottom cavity below the plate.
This would in theory be compatible with any TKL plate with the same spacing as the PCB won’t mount to the case but just be there soldered to the switches clipped into the plate.
Would anyone be interested in me persuing this. It will be VERY expensive to mill. Fair warning up front.
