Author Topic: What I've got today - Skyblue 38GT Case (Read 10766 times)

GON · « **on:** Tue, 21 May 2013, 08:51:38 »

Today I've got back what I sent to anodizing company.

I release it here first as a member of GH.

I have not posted this anywhere in the world.

You can see the Skyblue case.
I like it.

I add some more pics here...
I think I was the first who made an acrylic case as this...
I don't make acrylics as for now... It's too hard to make it beautiful.
These cases are different from others in that these have almost perfectly FLAT sides.

I'm sure Sifo will love this..

Looks really nice, man

and thanks for the exclusive pictures!

blue and green looks good

This looks great. Maybe I am dull, but especially the grey/brown-ish one looks amazing.

Hi GON =)

I think thats my black A.87. It looks so nice in person, the pictures don't do it justice. I'll have to get a 38GT from you soon!

keymaster · « **Reply #12 on:** Tue, 21 May 2013, 09:26:02 »

I'd be all over this if I liked 60% keyboards. The low-profile design is really nice.

Wow, those cases are pretty sick, any chance we'll see some here in the US?

This one is what I assembled recently.

Photekq · « **Reply #21 on:** Tue, 21 May 2013, 10:04:07 »

Are all three pieces laser cut? If so how do the screws hold them together if there are no threads?

4LI4Z · « **Reply #22 on:** Tue, 21 May 2013, 10:06:10 »

Looks like there's countersunk holes with threads on the edges. And then flat hex head screws. GON, I'm loving that low profile look. Great job ^__^

I don't use Laser for these cases.
Laser has difficulty in precise manufacturing.
So they are all CNC milled and as you guess they have thread on the bottom plate.

And there is no way to make MX switches fit to 2T AL plate if not CNC milled.
(Laser cannot make different depth but just making holes...)

I should have looked more carefully. I just noticed on picture 2 that it has been machined horizontally and not laser cut.

And PolyCarbonate that I use for mid-plate cannot be made into Keyboard cases with Laser cut.

I have my own job and where I make/assemble/tune-up keyboards is a corner of my small room.

Hi, Kayliss

You are one of the two GH members who have GON new style Housings.

Now... some more members will have them in a couple of weeks.

I'm happy that you are satisfied with my housing.
