Hello all!
Has anyone thought about redesigning a case for the Kinesis Advantage? I know that there are some folks who have split theirs, but it might be interesting to place the hardware in an entirely new case. I've been thinking about it a bit (but have zero technical skills) for a couple of reasons:
- Obviously splitting would be quite nice without having to cut the existing case in half to achieve this.
- It would be amazing to angle the thumb clusters to make them more vertical so that I can hit the thumb keys with the palm side of my thumb rather than the side (I hope that makes sense)
- The case is current too damn tall. Obviously the contouring naturally makes it higher, but I think the keyboard could be brought closer to the surface it's on so that it doesn't require a lot of reconfiguration of the desk/tray height. In fact I'm thinking of just removing the bottom half of the case entirely and using PCB standoffs to see how it feels.
So, has anyone tried to reconfigure the components and fit them into a different case?
