Stabilizer Clips
« on: Fri, 26 July 2013, 22:16:21 »
I am building a custom keyboard using WASD components.
I plan on getting a steel plate laser cut and am comfortable with the switch dimensions however the placement and dimensions of stabilizer clips is a problem.
Can anyone help me out with this problem?

Does anyone know the dimension 'A' for 6.25 spacebars? Cherry spec only has 7x.

Excellent, the DWG format worked perfect for me and I got all the measurements that I needed.

Here is my first attempt at bringing it together
There are two space bars (made using right shift keys). I also have a trackpad that will be salvaged from a thinkpad USB keyboard.
