[IC] Infinity Style Number Pad

Infinity Style Number Pad

Hey guys! This is my first post on GeekHack. I usually post a lot on Reddit and I wanted to start posting here as well.

Anyway, the body will be made of either brushed aluminum or stainless steel. It is the same concept as the 60% Infinity on Massdrop where its just a bent metal plate with switches on it and a PCB attached under it. For a bit extra we could probably offer a CNC milled anodized aluminum case. A controller is yet to be decided upon.

Pricing would most likely be as follows:
$50 for bare kit with plate, switches, and keycaps.
$80 for aluminum milled version.

Here is a render:

Sorry for any formatting errors as this is my first post on Geekhack.

What are the potential controller options? For something as slim and small as a number pad a black PCB with a built in controller is what I would prefer aesthetically. Due to the design having wires or a Teensy hanging off of it would put me off to it, at least to me.

Yep, that's exactly why I was going with a PCB. As for the conteller, I may just go with the common Teensy or and atmel of some sorts.

What would the MOQ for a PCB with a built in controller? The more streamlined it is, the better it will look.

Especially with the bent body.

30 is the number the manufacturer and I set. Shouldn't be too hard to reach I hope. Especially with it being a relatively cheap item.
