[IC] EVA keyboard storage case

[ghostjuggernaut]

Good evening all.

Ive been looking at keyboard case options, and have been in contact with an EVA case manufacturer.  They offer cases for a wide range of products, and have 4 different sized cases for keyboards specifically.  I wanted to see if there is enough interest in a EVA case.  Their MOQ is 500 and the cases are customisable to an extent.  I was thinking about doing an embossed/debossed geekhack logo, but that would depend on the IC.  Their lead time is about 2 months, and the price before shipping should be under $20.  I wont know for certain until after the design and everything is finalized.  Im still early in talks with them, but figured might as well see what the community thinks before I waste any time. 

Sizes offered:
L48xW20xH9.5CM >> I think this would be the best option since it will fit a TKL and maybe even 1800
L42xW20xH8.5CM
L41xW19xH8.5CM
L36.5xW16xH10.5CM

[ghostjuggernaut]

reserved just in case... ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Doesn't it offgas?

Yeah afaik they do gas, but the ones i have had in the past werent bad.  Not sure if they were older ones from the last OTD group buy or what, but I havent had any negative experience with these kinds of cases.  They are fairly rigid, and with the larger size we could have foam in it to keep things secure.

Oh, to store a keyboard, not to build one in. Duh.

Yeah, I'd buy a 60% case.

Under $20? That would be nice!

I’m interested! TKL and 75% bags would be convenient! 

Any chance a handle could be attached? Like the TX bags?

Color me interested for a few.

Yes they can do handles.  Im trying to get some more sample images from the manufacturer to give ideas of what we could do with it.  Still not 100% on costs, but based on ballpark number I assume it could be done for under 20/per.

Don't feel bad, I couldn't tell either, I had to look it up. I think part of it is I think EVE uses EVA cases :P.

[Techno Trousers]

Are these soft cases, like neoprene, or hard? I couldn't really tell from the pictures.

[ghostjuggernaut]

Are these soft cases, like neoprene, or hard? I couldn't really tell from the pictures.

They are hard cases, but not extremely rigid.  Below are some other examples of this type of case for different items. 







Got an email about foam.  Below are the types that they offer.  They can precut it, but i was hoping for a pick and pull option.  I didnt get a price for their options, but we may be able to do pick and plug seperately but that would be a lot of work for me.  Otherwise we could just do solid foam and let people cut as needed.  Thoughts?

[Atredl]

I’m a big fan of this topmost foam. Always reminds me of delicate parts for some high tech machine.

[wholypantalones]

I'd be in for multiple if they have no logo, embossing or decorative stuff.

[Murrellz]

Definitely interested.

[gizmoplex]

count me in for a compact 1800 case!

[xZ3ROx]

I'd be interested also!

[DALExSNAIL]

Down for a 65%

[dgneo]

Would be in for a TKL Case!

[Vigrith]

I'd buy like 3 or 4 probably.

[ptiede]

I'd go for a few 60% cases.

[punkpc]

I would be down for a 60% and a TKL case if the price is right.

[gt1989]

I would probably buy 2 bags, 1 TKL and 1 75%.

[fublamchu]

I’d be in for a 60 and 65% case

[dubious]

at that price, definitely interested!

[mech0nly]

Probably take few 60% sizes

Is this why the Mira case smells a bit funny? Kind of like a smokey metallic sort of smell?

[ghostjuggernaut]

I’ll reach out and ask if they can do multiple sizes for the same MOQ.

If they are separate MOQs, would everyone that wanted 60% be okay with the larger one?

[duynguyenle]

I'm in for at least 3 if pricing is reasonable. Would prefer having a couple different sizes, but not too fussed if the largest size is the only one available.

No, the MIRA case smells like that because the cases were left open in a room where people smoke a lot.

[futurecrime]

I'd be down for a couple of these but reckon shipping to UK would prolly tip it too expensive. So, that's a total maybe from me.

If I can, I’ll try and work out a proxy option. Not sure how logistics would work on that but I’d give it a shot. I think we’ll need all the help we can get in order to make an order so I’m not opposed to shipping proxies.

In that case I'll put my vote in for TKL and 65% cases, with pick n pull foam of the lumpy looking variety as found in Pelican cases (top of the stack in your foam pic). Also, if it's Geekhack themed then black with orange trim and/or zip might be nice. 

[Kavik]

Probably instead, especially if cheap.

Pretty much what i was thinking.  I like the idea of a debossed logo, not sure on size.  But black with orange zipper trim and gh themed pull tabs.  They have offered to send some samples to me for cost of shipping, so once I know this is something we can make happen ill start working out the details and get something in hand to determine if it will be worth the trouble, as well as nailing down some prices etc.

[___q]

Yeah I would probably buy a few of these regardless of what size(s) get made.

[laughatpain]

Larger sized cases can accommodate smaller boards with different sized foam where as the opposite is not true. In for some TKL sized cases.

[Krytone]

yeah i might buy for most of my boards so count me in

[FailureToLoad]

If the price is reasonable I'd be in for two.

[shadowrealmwarez]

I'd love one to fix my TX-CP

[dysphorical]

I'd be in for a TKL and perhaps a 60%

[ghostjuggernaut]

Checked with the manufacturer and they don’t split up MOQ. So I plan to go with the larger size and smaller boards will just have extra padding

probably the best way to do it. Thanks, GJ

[jaymaikan]

I'd be in for at least a couple.

[ghostjuggernaut]

Over the next day or two I’m gonna work on a concept of what I have in mind and see what everyone thinks. Hopefully everyone likes it and I can send it to the manufacturer to a get a quote in order. It seems like there is a lot of interest and we should be able to reach the MOQ. I plan to do things in the old style where ppl sign up then invoice etc. I need to make sure I can do it without getting PayPal locked down as well.

[Kafka]

No way of running 2 sizes? /:

[Techno Trousers]

So we've kind of looked at the outside of the case (logo, etc.) How about inside? Things like netting for cables, elastic straps, integrated padding etc.?

As an example, this is how I would love to store and carry my TKLs.

I like that a lot actually.  Ill send the pic over and ask if they can do something like that for this case.

I'm in for two TKLs. Would prefer minimal decoration/logo. Maybe a Velcro patch (like goruck bags) so people can customize?

I can get behind this.  I would still like to incorporate gh colors and zipper pulls, but velcro would allow more options.

... and I also want a planck / preonic size

[Weiss]

Definitely in for 60/65-size.

Here is an image of the foam I just received. 



They said that they cut the foam themselves, but will ask about smaller cutouts for more control over sizing.

They said that this is one of their cases, so take it with a grain of salt.  They said they can do something similar with a flap, but will cost extra for prototyping costs.  Overall would be under a dollar per case.  Here is a sample image they sent along with it.

[Techno Trousers]

That would definitely be worth an extra buck to me!

[dysphorical]

So will you offer it in TKL or fullsize?

[ghostjuggernaut]

The 48x20 is the largest case they offer. I’m sure they can do bigger but they would need new molds which probably be beyond this gb. Maybe something to consider for the future though.

[ihalatch]

Interested in buying 2.

[anhthao88]

I'll definitely be in for a 60/65 size. Do you have any update about the handle? Also, would there be an option for inner bag for cord and accessories?

[EightDiagram]

Something like Mira's case? (fast-forward to 12-minute mark)

For inspiration, the WhiteFox case that apparently shipped to Kickstarter backers looks pretty nice: https://www.reddit.com/r/MechanicalKeyboards/comments/7vdhqs/finally_i_waited_more_than_6_months_for_this_she/

I am currently trying to iron out details on the case and will hopefully have a quote soon, as well as images that I can start a GB.  I will shoot them these pictures and see if they are familiar with the design.

[BlindAssassin111]

Would be in for the largest size. I want one for a fullsize, 1800, tkl, and 60%.

[azachhh]

Going to watch this thread! I carry mine to and from work every day - it would be nice to not just throw it in the backpack.

[kmba]

I think 60/65 would be good, as long as it's large enough to also fit 68 keys like the fc660c/m/clueboard etc

[pr0ximity]

Would be in for one only if there is a foam option that fits 60% or 65% snugly. I have the aforementioned OTD EVA case and while it fits TKL's perfectly, 60% boards slide around in it. A big empty cavity is definitely not a one-size-fits-all.

A full cavity foam insert with pre-cut breakaway sections is a decent one-size-fits-all option

[P1kas]

 

[ghostjuggernaut]

Not dead, but not much movement.  Have reached out to a few other manufacturers, but information is slow coming.  I may just go back to the first manufacturer and work around their products.  I was hoping to have more customization than what they offer, but its not looking like thats going to happen.

Im pretty busy through the end of March, and halfway into April.  Hopefully i can finalize details by the end of April and go from there.

[Techno Trousers]

I'm looking forward to this. I've been thinking a lot about abs durability, and not exposing key caps to direct sunlight will be a plus.

[P1kas]

Thank you for the quick update, Ghost.

[Skynet_0]

Also looking forward to this

[sodiumjoe]

love the aesthetic of Rama's case

[kmba]

I don't think anyone will really care if there are no customization options available, embossment, colors, etc.  plain black boring case that fits a keyboard for under $20 is all anyone is really after.  I'll reiterate that I think 60/65/68% is the way to go for this case!     

[wholypantalones]

Show Image

What aesthetic? It's just a case with a giant screen printed logo on it.

[Zuology]

I would definitely be interested in at least a 2-3 bags/cases! Not terribly worried about logo/design, though I am partial to the dimpled/circles in a grid design.

I personally don't care if the cases are big enough to fit up to 96/104/1800 layouts, but if they could fit up to 80%/TKL that would be awesome for TKL and 75% boards I have.

[ghostjuggernaut]

I was speaking with a friend recently and I think having a somewhat no frills design with a small Velcro loop area on the top would be nice. Then maybe run some patches for that area alongside the GB or after.

Also working on getting more details from the original manufacturer for colors and material. I’ve pooped in a native Chinese speaker that will hopefully be able to better help the communication get sorted.

Hopefully this can progress soon. I’ll let everyone know when I get info.

Looks kinda cool, but I'd much rather have a case like in the OP.  Hope it still has a chance of happening.

Agreed, I would prefer the EVA case, but if this doesn't go through and the other does, I will get the other.

[ghostjuggernaut]

Im not opposed to revisiting, but am pretty busy at the moment.

The initial problem that slowed this down, was communication with the manufacturer.  I still have all the info and will let you all know if/when I revisit the case.

Yeah, please let us know. I'm still down.
