Introduction
Hello Geekhack! Greenwald Designs here, happy to debut my first upcoming project, Lumina. What is Lumina? It’s a 60% Corian case designed specifically to work within the limitations of the material, but still have a classy clean look. Expect the optional PCB to come with lots of cool features, detailed below.. but first I’d like to provide a few photos of two working prototypes that were on display at the Columbus meetup earlier this month.








About Corian
Corian is a material commonly used to make counter-tops in kitchens. The material is non-porous, and can be polished to a gloss, just like marble. Corian is also very durable, allowing it to take normal wear and tear that other traditional keyboard materials can’t. There are all sorts of color options available, however this initial IC will be for the top 3 (chosen by you) colors. For more information on Corian, check out DuPont’s website http://www.corian.com.
Lumina

  • Sandwich (gapless) style case (Corian with center plate, poly-carbonate diffuser)

  • Corian feet (5% angle)

  • Compatible with standard 60% PCBs

  • Simply screw assembly

  • Case and plate made in the U.S.A.

  • Plate*
    The plate features:

  • Option of either Brass or Aluminum

  • Cherry switches only (sorrys Alps)

  • Standard 60% layout

  • Waterjet Cut, will be MUCH cleaner than the prototypes

  • Waldo (optional PCB)*
    The optional Waldo PCB (made by Canada’s Maple Computing) includes the following features:

  • RGB Underglow

  • QMK Compatible

  • In-Switch LED Support

  • Type C USB

  • Split Space/Backspace Support

  • Technical Specifications*
    Case measurements are as follows:
    Length 12.65in
    Width 5.15in
    Height 1in (without feet) / 1.5in (with feet on the back)
    Weight 2.1lbs (with brass plate) / 2.5lbs (with steel plate)

  • What’s included* (glamour shots https://imgur.com/a/CWuqU)
    The Lumina consists of the following:

  • 2 CNC Corian pieces (top and bottom)

  • Switch plate (Brass, Steel or Aluminum)

  • Polycarbonate Bottom Diffuser

  • Corian Screw in Feet for 5 Degree Angle

  • Optional Waldo 60% PCB

  • Parts needed for assembly (screws)

  • Pricing & Timline & Quantity*
    As it stands currently I expect the Lumina case to cost around $300 to $380 USD depending on user selections. As we get closer to the GB start I should have a more definitive price available. I expect to run this GB for around 2 weeks, once the IC has been completed. One final note, there is no hard limit on how many cases can be ordered, the more cases the lower the price will be.
