[GB]Tilted40 - A Reversible 5˚ 40% - GB

[Swishy]

Tilted40
a reversible 5˚angle double column 40%
Swishy X Createkeebs




A board inspired by older keyboards with the Large “foreheads” and adding a mixture of curiosity

Why is it different from other boards: For it to be a reversible angle you have to over come the “issue” that if you put the USB C on the bottom of the case the port would have to face you, which is less than ideal. The solution is rather simple, just put the port on top of the case. Typically there isn’t enough room for that but because the Tilted40 rocks the Kickbutt buttowski headgear there is more than enough room.

More

I am currently only in possession of v1 protos, v2 are currently being made and should be done this upcoming week or the week after. With that being said v1 was a success in that it works, but that doesn’t mean things couldn’t be improved. Some changes made between v1 and v2 is that I added more tabs on the plate because the polycarbonate plate had too much flex and was cause a rattle also changed the acoustic cuts quite a bit, lastly I moved the USB port to align with the left column.
