Saw that last night.  When/if our phantom plates are anodized, I might make a clear acrylic case for my self to show off the plate and the PCB.




You mean like this?

That is a Korean custom acrylic case with anodized plate and white A87 PCB.

Thanks, do you have any high resolution pictures of this? It would make a great background!

Yes.  

I also saw this last night: http://www.otd.kr/bbs/board.php?bo_table=album&wr_id=98215

To do this one, I would need a PCB-mounted keyboard.  I could use a Wyse PCB and saw off the numpad, or just hand wire the switches.  Use a layer of acrylic to hold all the switches.  That layer would be long enough and wide enough to match other layers so the acylic switch plate would just be part of the case.

I don't have any pics. Anyway I don't like the old design of those KBC keys with that TAB key, the oddly aligned Ctrl & Alt and the top aligned F-keys.

Sure, it is a clever design.

Sorry I haven't made the video yet to show how to open up a Filco.  Do you need any help to open it?

Got mine today. Very nice, shiny, and smooth. The cases are very light. Can't decide which one I like better so I'll keep both - 1 for Filco w/ ergo clears and 1 for Filco Zero.

Whew!  So glad that my packaging protected the case well.  

You will need a 3/32” hex driver for the screw and a 1/4" socket to open and close the case.

Just got mine today too! Beautiful case (I got the white/blue one, and now I think I should have gotten the black/red too). Initially, I was thinking of modding it to fit phantom 7bit layout, but I don't think I can bring myself to do that! So as tsangan said, into the closet it goes until I get a suitable keyboard.
