Hey everyone, the other day I ran my first IC on keebtalk for a little project I've been working on for a bit that I'm calling "0081-08G", and from the feedback I got on there and discord and after finalizing the layout, I thought for the second IC I'd post it to here also so more people can see it.
I'm still working on out the Pcb details., so when I work out the specifics I'll edit or reply to this post.
The standard case will be constructed from FR4 similar to the Contra 40% from Cartel so that I can keep the costs as low as possible.
I’m also trying to work with some vendors to see if they can bundle some switches into the kit, with a slightly discounted price on the switches.
Other than the switch bundle, I have some other add-on ideas to improve the appearance of the standard board. I definitely plan on at least adding support for a WS2812B RGB strip to be wired on, like the Contra. Let me know what you guys think about these other ideas and I'll see what I can do to add them as options to the kit.
Heres what I'm thinking about adding as add-ons to the base kit.
- Acrylic middle layer
- Acrylic Hi-Pro layer
- RGB strip
Any comments or suggestions will be greatly appreciated.
