[IC] ADK64 3D Printed 60% Case R2
« on: Thu, 02 May 2019, 11:41:50 »
No brakes on this train. I'll be setting up this page for gathering a little more info for another round of the ADK64. Here are my plans:

  • Larger amount of spots, as 50 went pretty quickly last time
  • More colors, I kept things pretty muted for R1, I think we should get some bright colors for R2... maybe even carbon fiber filament  :p
  • Apple Logos to go with the boards - these are hard to track down, but I've got some leads.
  • Potential geometry change to make printing easier (will add screenshots and a vote to see if people don't mind it later)
  • Collaboration with /u/inachie to bring back a run of the Paladin64 for this board. I think we can add split space as well - not sure how that would be accomodated for by AEK caps though.
  • FR4 plates - Hasu has kindly open sourced his plate file for the 60% AEK layout, so I may get a batch of these made for those that want a more complete PCB + Case + Plate setup

Any feedback/questions are welcome! This page will be updated in the coming days with more content.

If you were able to do a custom sticker for the Apple logo, I think that would be awesome. I would love to get in on one of these cases!

I've been stockpiling some for the next round. I have a few more leads to follow up on as well.

Will there be an option to buy them apart from a case?
