GeekHack build to give back
« on: Thu, 17 December 2015, 21:51:06 »
So i have an idea. Source a keyboard and parts from the community, build it and auction it off with all the proceeds going to the GH forum. 

The build would include a full wright up.

i'm proposing a 2 piece case for travel. Design to be forthcoming depending on the interest of the forum. in a 40% size.

here's what i'm thinking for the case...
120463-0
120465-1
or something similar.

That case looks great, more suited to a suitcase than a backpack perhaps due to the thickness but no harm will come to the internals that's for sure!  I'd be up for contributing something to the build.

regardless of the support i'm moving forward with this build. i should have some Gateron KS3 browns lying around  and plenty of materials for the case. just need to redesign the case, design a PCB, mill the PCB etc etc. unless i get a donation of a prebuilt PCB.

all that said i'm moving this to the general making stuff together sub forum.
