SAMPLES & ANOUNCEMENT:

  • This time only Case B will run
  • Case A will run after Case B is 100% done (including shipping)
  • Case B will require smaller plate, which will be supplied in the buy later. Or you can cut/file the OLKB plate (2.5mm on each side) like I did for these prototype. I don’t wanna widen the inner opening just to make it compatible to unmodified OLKB plate because it will make the gap between keycaps and case too wide especially compared to between keycaps, and that’s against my design believe. And I can’t make it 2 parts like KMAC did too because the small width the bezel has (and KMAC’s plate have its own screw hole too).
  • Case A will be redesigned to support unmodified OLKB plate by dividing it to 2 parts, Top Case and Bottom Case. The wide bezel on this case allowed the screw post to be implemented. Splitting it to 2 part design may increase the price but I still don’t know yet because I want to focus on the Case B 1st and develop the Case A further after it (so for you who already soldered and love your Planck, please add some extra patient in the waiting time ^-^).
    Case A 153550-0
    153552-1
    153554-2
    Case B 153556-3
    153558-4
    153560-5
    A high profile metal (still searching for available material) for Planck.
    The thing about hipro case on Planck is it will look awkward in proportion because the nature size of Planck.
    So to give an impression of slimmer case I make 2 designs, one inspired from Apple M0110A Keyboard and the other is inspired by Apple MacBook White Polycarbonate.

    I still working on the inner part for now, mimicking the original architecture of Planck milled case.
