A couple more pictures:
Thing I need to do or think about:
- 2nd layer needs to be a tad thicker for Filco. Not a problem with the actual Phantom.
- lower screws count from 11 to 8, don't really need that many screws.
- right now the PCB is sitting on the bottom layer. A better way to do this is to glue a few acrylic posts to support the plate instead. Need to engrave the post positions. Notices the PCB has already scratched the bottom layer. If we do this, the 3rd layer needs to be thicker.
- need to move the cable cut out to center. I underestimated how long the cable is.
- the second layer needs to be a tad wider and longer than it is now. maybe 0.5mm. Right now it is a super tight fit. Need final plate and PCB to determined final size.
- Need to back legs. Currently it is too flat.
- The top layer is OK, but I can move some key holes a little bit to center the holes to keycaps. Need to way for the final plate cut to determine final key hole locations.
Round out the inside corners for the 3rd layer.
- I need better screws. Please, any suggestions for better screws? these from Lowe's sucks. They are too long and I had to Dremel them.
- I got my Teensy today. The 3rd layer's thickness is perfect.
- should we make the case both Phantom and Filco compatible?
- as much as I have cut out, the case is HEAVY! Is that good?
- the Phantom wording took a long time to cut, especially because that layer is so thick, the laser need to run slower to cut it. It barely cut through. For the final version, I don't think the word Phantom will be cut. Maybe engraved.
