The case is (obviously) acrylic and was made by MOZ as part of his Open Source Acrylic Phantom/TKL Case project.

Awesome. I love the Neuromancer tribute.

That Vortex case is really nice in the end
I also like the solid feel of the ss plate a lot.

I know this is an old thread/post, but damn.. that is one beautiful board. EXACTLY what I'm looking for.

Just need to make a 7-unit stab bar.

I know its an old post but I just had to comment. That is one of the best looking keyboards I think I've ever seen. The exposed bolts on the acrylic case have beautifully raw appearance. The red and black colors go so well together. I would do hideous, despicable things for that case without hesitation.

I've been debating buying a phantom pcb from mechanicalkeyboards and seeing this makes me want to build one of my own just like it (except ANSI 125).

I love the sharp angles on the TEK80. I think it really blows Korean customs out of the water.

Hopefully next week I can share what I've been working on for the past year and a half (Although most of that was waiting for parts hahaha)

Paranoid · « **Reply #323 on:** Sun, 16 February 2014, 07:44:05 »

- Black-Gray Aluminum MKC case
- Stainless steel plate in ISO150 layout with black MX switches modded with Korean 62gr springs, lubed with victorinox oil and a Krytox GPL 103/205 mix, stickered with gold vinyl stickers.
- The caps are in BE azerty layout from a G80-3000SAB with dye-subs.

BE dyesubs!! Amazing paranoid!

Paranoid · « **Reply #325 on:** Sun, 16 February 2014, 09:14:25 »

Thanks ^^ Took me some time to find these. I also missed an auction once for a dyesub and doubleshot board a long time ago. I regret each day missing that auction for an hour

Luckily I found two more dyesub boards recently, in even better condition, I jumped right on that offer. I'm keeping those as backups

I seriously can't get over how much I like this. It has a very industrial look and I've always loved cases with exposed plates. Even the finish on the plate seems immaculate.

Any chance we could get a few pictures of the bottom? I'm curious whether the bolts thread right into the bottom plate or if you used fasteners to sandwich everything together. From these pictures it looks like you tapped threads into the bottom plate.

The bottom is uninteresting. It is literally a copy of the top plate with no switch holes.

I didn't actually use bolts and spacers. I used threaded standoffs and 4-40 machine screws. That eliminated the need for me to tap threads into the plates.

I did add a couple of rubber bumpers as feet, so that it's not just sitting flat on the desk. If I had some steel bar stock, I would have had it cut in half and holes drilled for bolts, to make a "bar foot" like LZ used in his latest designs.

I had to use such long standoffs due to the Teensy mounted on the underside of the Phantom PCB. For a PCB with an onboard controller, I could have probably used 3/8" or 7/16" length standoffs.

I think she's finally finished. For now. I had to do a lot of mods to the case to even make it workable, but I think it turned out ok. Specs to follow.

Case: Highly modified acrylic case from takaki group buy / sparkfun mini USB breakout board
Plate: Stainless ANSI_150
Switches: Blue stems / 80g originative springs / orange stickers
Stablizers: Cherry plate mount / white stab inserts
Keycaps: WYSE WY-60 and PCE originals + moogle + tsangan + relegendables from SP inventory
Lock LEDs: Pink

I know. And the nice thing is that those PCE boards have ten stabs so I have enough of these to do two boards if I am careful. The other five will go on a gh60 I think.

I wanna say that one board was made somewhere unusual according to the sticker, but I cannot remember where.

There is a lot of work to do in this keyboard yet.
I'm not totally happy with it.
I did a few adaptations in the original wyse control keycaps in order to use it here but I couldn't find one 'alt' key nor the dammed menu and win keys.
