Since this is my first time making a keyboard, I made a 3D printing prototype before CNC works, the size is just right for me. then I ordered two CNC prototypes, here they are!

Glad to see so many friends likes this degisn! here is some reply to everyone's opinion
Center Mount USB: Yes! the wide top bezel of the cherry's original design is the most interesting part of their keyboards, it's almost a icon of cherry keyboards I think. Due to this wide top bezel, it will make it too deep to get the original pcb's usb port directly. so I extended the original usb port to the center by using a short usb cable with a 90 degree usb plug, the other end is a small screw mounted pcb with a mini usb port on it, the extend usb cable is soldered on the small pcb. And for those who want to make it a bluetooth keyboard, you can find some space to place the bluetooth module and batteries.
WKL blocker: Yes! this is already put in my plan. it will be a 1u blocker for layouts like this:
[attachimg=14]
Weights, Engravings or LEDs: I'm going to make this a purely keyboard case. So, There is NO Weights, Engravings or LEDs :thumb: :thumb:
Material: Anodized aluminium for sure, in silver, gray and black? or more colors? Plastic option is a great! but as I known even by small scale manufacture, it needs at leat 500 units, but anyway, plastic is always under my consideration. :cool: :cool:

Quite elegant. Instead of center USB, wouldn't this have to be a left USB cutout design?
Sent from my mobile using Tapatalk
Center mount is probably for a breakout usb because of the top bezel.
Also, YES! So much want! :eek:
Post by: LightningXI on Thu, 22 February 2018, 07:32:05
Forgot to mention that I'd get two if a WKL blocker option is also available in a way similar to the OG boards.
For a price point, I'm hoping we can hit sub-200. The Revo One case was like 150.

Centered USB mount seems to be a waste of the board as it would kill the pcb compatibility. Also it's unfortunate that we have an expensive 2 piece design which is tray mounted.As Pwner said, GH60 style PCBs would be compatible with the case because the top bezel space allows for a separate breakout PCB.

https://geekhack.org/index.php?topic=93685.0
I can't find a detial drawing of this pcb but accroding to those mount holes, I think it is a GH60 compitable pcb, it should fit this 60% G80 case.
BUT, there is a mount hole right to the spacebar on the original GH60, and that can't found on this DO60, it's ok to mount but it might limit your layout choices, you have to avoid the mouting pillar there and some insulation works might be needed.

Especially a plastic one. I know it sounds weird to want a plastic case, but there really aren't any good looking bezel-y plastic cases out there, and this'd make an EXCELLENT daily driver with a lightweight, durable material.
I bet you could get it machined out of *some* kind of plastic...
I'd totally buy an aluminum one too, though.
So slick and simple, I love it!
All the space for bluetooth integration is super cool too.

Will this be compatible with the usual suspects of 60% PCBs like GH60, XD60, Bananspalit etc?
Also: Does topmount mean a single piece tray mount?
edit: just saw above that the GH60 style PCBs will fit

Have been busy for these days, launching a trial or small scale group buy in China. by now, 10 units sold at ￥1588 (around $250). Many friends can't accept with just the case, they hope PCB and plate included in the box. and there is a problem might killing the PCB compatibility, this design is too thin that there is no enough space below the PCB, only 2.75mm height there. those PCB with a DIP switches or components higher then 2.75mm below it won't fit this case. ??? wow, there is a long way to go.THX for the info sharing, I like the streamline design so much.

If the case is already a 2 piece design, why is it still standoff mounted instead of mounting the plate to the top case? Usually standoff mounts are for 1 piece cases that can't be mounted any other way.

I'm going to guess because of the usb daughterboard due to bezel size to keep it compatible with standard 60% pcb's.

If I may add some suggestion, looking at this photo:
[attachimg=1]
I think it is better to use the bezel width pointed by the green arrow instead of the one pointed by the violet arrow (see below image for reference)

As I think the added width will give a more balanced looks compared to bezel on the left and right side.

[..] reducing the top just a little more for balance [..]IIRC reducing the top isn't possible because the case is quite flat and the design of the PCB and/or (?!) USB daughter board would need to be changed.

Definitely agree with this. I think making the bottom more consistent with how the G80 alphas are spaced away would also help balance out the top. It would take it from ok to perfect :)

Just a little on the bottom would be great, otherwise this is one of the sexiest 60 cases I have seen in a while. Awesome stuff!

A lot of people start to panic when I talk about having an indent or lip for holding a pen, but I personally think it'd be a major usability improvement for *any* keyboard, and could justify the large top bezel even on a small desk.
Another alternative could be indicator lights, or a cutout for a nameplate that the user could replace with an OLED or something.
But nobody else probably wants those things... :))

I'm ok w the bottom. looks more like g80-3000:Show Image(https://www.hardwareasylum.com/images/cherry_g80-silent-black/keyboard_overall.jpg)
Same!
After all it's supposed to be a 60% adaptation of the g80-3000, so that's exactly how I expect the case to be! :)

Do you have an estimate for how much it'd weigh?

Looking at the trial run and it looks really good! :thumb:Agree with this, and I think reducing the top just a little more for balance too would look ever better.
If I may add some suggestion, looking at this photo:
(Attachment Link)
I think it is better to use the bezel width pointed by the green arrow instead of the one pointed by the violet arrow (see below image for reference)
(Attachment Link)
As I think the added width will give a more balanced looks compared to bezel on the left and right side.
It still looks amazing though.
+1 Agreed

What usb types will this support? Would definitely get one if its not too expensive and has typeC.
The cool thing about having a separate USB board is being able to switch between USB types, ideally
Also, Cerakote options would be cool.

I like the Cherry G80-3000s design and looking for a custom one, and some Cherry fans in China cut off the numpad and made it a 87% custom keyboard named J80, but I just missed that. during the long waiting before the round two group buy of J80, I think I should try making a keyboard of my own.
I sure hope you're around these days, because the same people who did J80 are doing a Round 2 buy, but they renamed it as JER-A06. See here: https://geekhack.org/index.php?topic=96264.0
Would also love an update on this project.

I got one and it just arrived at my friends house in China. Can I use a PCB with USB C in this?Nice. Are there plans for an international GB on this?

It'll be easier to tell if you take the items out of the bag and have front and back pics.

Told my friend to take better photos and he tells me he's too busy. lol
Figured out what the square thing was. Some sort of RGB you put under a switch

Aha, you can use a type-c pcb. the case is shipped with both mini-usb and type-c plug board, connect to the extent female board with a FPC cable.
and yes, the squre board is a RGB strip, can be connect to any ws2812 compatible solder pad.
this few month I was working on a QMK based bluetooth PCB and firmware, and it's actually working and being tested now. I hope it can be a option for the GB of 60% G80 which is comming soon.
