Stabilizer plate hole layouts.
« on: Thu, 14 January 2016, 12:51:20 »
I'm working on a 40% w/ a 10 key and a couple of small modifications to the standard modifier layout. I cant find a good picture of the stabilizer layout / dimensions for either cherry or the corsair stabilizers. 

I'd like to use corsair but I'm not hard set. The only keys I'm going to need a stabilizers for should be the 6.25u spacebar, and a 2 keys for the + and "return" on my 10 key (2u).

I found this link which I think is for the 2u keys: http://deskthority.net/keyboards-f2/costar-stabilizer-plate-measurements-t5872.html

Does anyone have a better link to these layouts with dimensions?

I did find the file, but I'm modeling in Fusion 360. I didn't realize it was a .dwg file.

I'll just have to install something so I can pull measurements from stabilizer file. Just a bummer to have to install another piece of software just to pull the measurements. Thanks for linking me back there. I was 5 pages deep into that thread and had forgotten that file was up front.

You can also find the measurements in metric on Cherry's site for Cherry stabs.  Both plate and PCB mount will fit the same holes and use the same dimensions.  The only difference is the PCB needs holes for PCB mount stabs, but pcb mount stabs will fit through plate mount holes.

Their dimensions for hole cutouts, and stab cutouts are in the PDF file under the red button.
