Title: Keywell and Topre mounting options
Post by: Will_I_am344 on Thu, 04 January 2024, 11:45:29
I am on my most difficult building journey so far, bringing authentic topre feel to a keywell.

I will be scavenging a topre board for components. I have figured out the electronics already, but I am uncertain how to mount the topres.

The case will be in alu. I am thinking of mounting the same way HHKB does, by attaching the sliders to the top case, but I am uncertain if the sound will be pleasant if the sound goes through an entire aluminium case. So it might be worthwhile getting a dedicated slider plate in plastics instead.

Has anyone here any ideas regarding this or maybe perhaps played with the idea themselves? I couldnt find much when searching for it.
