Author Topic: [IC] FJELL 60% High Profile Keyboard Case (Read 40649 times)

LeandreN · « **on:** Thu, 29 December 2016, 16:43:27 »

This Group Buy will not be started before I am done with Round 5 of PCBs, plates and stabilizers.

This is not really an interest check, as I have gathered a lot of info and I have decided how the case should be. I just wanted to keep people updated in a thread without making a GB thread yet.

This is a very limited group buy for a high profile, heavy, high quality mechanical keyboard case for 60% keyboards.

Round 1 will have 20(TBD)places available, later there will be more. The orders will be open for a short time, and I will raffle out the first places if needed.

Specifications:

Brass or steel(TBD) weight

Bead blasted anodized aluminium (alloy to be determined from samples)

5 different colours to choose from

Steep chamfered edges

Fits 60% tray mounted keyboard to make it highly compatible and sturdy.

6x M2 screws for mounting

2x M4 screws for weight mounting

4x antislide 3M feet

8 degree angle

V1:

V2

Pricepoint: TBD

Looking good. Really like the look of the weight.

I really like this design--hope gold or brass case color is an option! Heavier the better!

Yes, yes, yes! I have my first brass weight cases coming in soon with my TX shipment that shipped this week, so that should help me decide on what to go for with the MOUNTAIN.

Looks cool.

Posting here so I don't forget about it.

I really like the look of the R2 case. Having that flat top before the angled edges makes it look really, really nice IMO.

Looks beautiful, Leandren - I don't purchase parts personally as I don't have the skills nor the time to assemble my own keyboards but the case looks wonderful, truly. Amazing job!

polentA · « **Reply #10 on:** Thu, 29 December 2016, 18:21:16 »

I have been following the updates in the other group buy thread, and I am extremely excited to support this case! Will definitely watch this thread for updates. I don't have any constructive criticism unfortunately - I just love high profile 60% cases! Badass LeandreN

Definetely one of the best looking 60% cases around. Did you design it yourself LeandreN?

You reside in Northern Europe do you not? I might actually take you up on that offer some time honestly, been meaning to get my wife a 60% for her travels but all of the mass produced ones don't interest me at all.

I just want to mess things up. There will be more GBs shortly afterwards. This is for the sake of quality.

Go ahead and sign us up and lock it down

Looking at the interest, I think I have to expand the orders a bit.

I'll see what I can do.

As a fan of all things low profile this is like slamming my penis in a door.

I wish some of the talented board makers here would make something that is as low profile as possible because that is where a void is currently unfulfilled.
