Hi, I'm making a case for an Erogodox and came to something that I'm unsure about. I'm using the designs from the layered acrylic case by Lister (but have made the plate from aluminium and am making the other layers from plywood, same layer thicknesses as the original design.)
When the switches are fully seated into the plate they push the PCB away from the plate by a little under 1mm. This means that the spacer layer underneath the plate (layer 4) is not actually thick enough for the 'tallest' components on the bottom of the PCB to clear the bottom layer (5).
So I could either construct the case with the thicknesses listed in the design (with the PCB flat against the plate, meaning the switches would not be fully seated in the plate), or I could increase the thickness of the spacer layer(4) to add more clearance underneath the PCB. (would have to order some more wood.)
I could well be misunderstanding how the case is supposed to go together. I'm not sure if I explained the issue very well, can take some pictures if that would help.
Thanks in advance, any advice would be muchly apreciated!
