I’m looking into the possibility of having some custom LED overlays produced for IBM and Unicomp Model M boards. You know, these things:

Except we could make them look however we want. For example:



WHAT I KNOW

  • The overlays would be digitally printed on matte-finish polycarbonate with 3M 467 2mil adhesive, then laser-cut.
  • I’m still waiting on some price quotes, but depending on quantities I’m hoping for something around the $5 mark.
  • MOQ is 100 to 200.
  • We can count multiple designs towards the same MOQ, including different window locations (e.g., OG IBM vs. Unicomp).
  • There is an option to die-cut the adhesive so that the backs of the LED windows are not sticky, but this adds a lot of set-up cost and is probably unnecessary unless you plan on putting a lot of dirt inside your board, so I’m not going to do it.

WHAT I NEED

  • Some good designs.
  • Some accurate measurements of Unicomp LED window locations.
  • Your interest and support!!!
    So, let me know what you think.
