Why was the Classic65 removed? Liked the dedicated arrow keys.

Also... there seams to me a lot of room in the back. Is there enough open space for a Raspberry Pi?

The 65 was just a alternate version of the Classic60.  Due to feedback and my own personal preference, it will be the design for the 60 instead.  I don't think a full Pi like the 3 would fit, but something like the Pi Zero would.  I have some other plans for that space but I am not currently at the stage to discuss or show them quite yet.

So this started off with me just playing with dimensions from a Cherry brochure for the G80-0537 I found in the DT wiki.  I really wasn't planning on doing much with it but the more I mess around with it, the more I want it.  Anyways, here is a few newer renders:

Full plate in brass & a polycarb half plate.  Still works in progress.

Slick design. I feel that it needs a decorative accent piece of some sort at the top above that bar thing. Maybe a wood inlay?

This definitely has something going for it.  I wouldn't ever use a board that wide, but the design is beautiful.

Interesting idea.  I was leaning towards a Model F AT badge/lock light style:

Oh. I like that a lot more than my idea. Good call.

Zeal'd the 'C85' and a brass half plate.

It's pretty gorgeous.   I feel like if prince were still alive, he would definitely use that keyboard.  I still wish you would go with a 60 or 65% on this one, but I'm just being selfish  ;D

Yes.  Finalizing the modeling and then I'll have an IC up shortly after.  Not 100% sure when but it'll happen.

Hello, yes, I'll take all of them.

Same here!


I love that PWN badge!

Trying to create a 'brand' identity for myself.  Not sure if that will be it or not, I'm terrible with that kind of stuff.


Added a couple updates:
- New renders for the classic60.  Rebuilt it all from scratch.  I think it's finally close to being done... maybe.
- Added a 75% concept.  This was a quickie in between waiting for renders to finish.  Not sure where this will go yet, just playing around with different ideas.

Yes the 60 is amazing!  If this board runs without a rerun of DSA or SA retro, it would be heresy!

Never considered a 75 until this one.  It's amazing.  Have you talked to any manufacturers yet?
