[IC] POM Alice Case - PCB Info Available!
« on: Wed, 21 August 2019, 09:26:38 »
Welcome to the interest check for the POM Alice!


I am planning on running a group buy for a TGR Alice-style case laser cut from POM!

I have tried POM cases, and they have a very unique sound (one that goes particularly well with tactiles). The details aren’t firm yet, and I am still trying to find out what people want (i.e, color choices, alternate materials), but POM seems to be relatively uncharted territory in this community.

Here are the details:
Laser cut black/white delrin (POM) sheets
MOQ: 25 units
Quantity: unlimited
Includes: POM Alice Case, 3mm POM half plate
Group Buy Date: November 1st, 2019
I will handle orders privately through Geekhack
Price: Dynamic pricing!
0-100 units - $140
100-250 units - $130
250+units - $120
Cost for coned aluminum feet + screws - $12
Additional Fee for White Color - $8

I will also be offering the classic ProjectKeyboard PCBs along with the cases. We will need to hit 50 MOQ for them to be produced, and they will cost $50 each. They will have a black solder mask so they should look good in most acrylic boards too.

This keyboard is using Zambunon’s Lubrigante case, which is a slightly more compact version of the Alice, with more refined design (IMO). The picture below is the exact design of the Lubrigante, but made out of acrylic (will attach prototype pictures once it arrives).

224827-0

If you’re planning on doing this yourself, I highly recommend picking up a PCB for the Alice (ProjectKeyboard has a GB running right now!).

224829-1

The interest check form is down below, feel free to fill it out! Also, I am looking for two or three prototype testers, so anyone interested let me know!

Interest Check Form: https://forms.gle/MrxTbjEQuj9EESMy5

I don’t have renders for this (I don’t know how to create renders from DXF files, but I’ll attach pictures of the prototype once it gets here), but here is some eye candy of acrylic Alices (use your imagination!).

224831-2

224833-3

224835-4


Thanks everyone!

Updates:
9/16 - pricing updated
9/28 - Prototype pictures added

Have you done any kind of testing with black delrin and LEDs? The PCB you're talking about has some underglow LEDs and I don't really know what the light diffusion situation is like with black delrin (whereas I know natural delrin has *really good* diffusive properties)

I was just looking at R3 and trying to figure out how/where to get the case cut. I would be very interested.

I haven't done too much testing, but from my understanding, there should be a faint hue. To be honest, the RGB wasn't really a priority for me.
If people want the LEDs to shine through, we could always change to white delrin.

It's not a primary concern for me either, just wanted to check since I haven't actually seen a black delrin board get floated around before. Good luck with this!

If it's multi-layer, I wonder if one of the layers could just be a diffuser layer. RGB isnt a priority for me either though.

Honestly a layer of natural delrin sandwiched between layers of black delrin would make for a really bold aesthetic and natural delrin would do a great job of diffusing and evening-out the light from the uneven spacing of the LEDs on the Alice PCB.

The case itself will be flat, and so the height/angle will be coming from the coned metal feet. I'm not quite sure what you meant by contouring (sorry), but the key height should be consistent throughout the board.

Thanks everyone for explaining.

If this is something many people want, I can make it happen. However, the original plan was to make it more compact than the Alice, and so I would prefer to keep the design.

The last image of the white acrylic is awesome. However, I hate the cases that screw from the top. I don't like the visible case screws. I hope you are planning to screw from the bottom. If not, a counter sunk setup with premium quality screw sets with logos would be my choice. Like the screw sets used on rama koyu for example.

I think probably the best option will be to have the screws in the top, but I can explore countersunk holes.

You should be able to put the screws through the bottom as well without any problems, but I would like to keep the hole open all the way through just for the versatility.

Would having the hole go through all the way still irk you?

No. Maybe a threaded insert in the top layer and screw through the bottom layer.

Screw sets similar to these. And yes, holes through the top, while not a deciding factor, would irk me if not done with some quality counter sunk screw sets.

You should be able to do whichever you want, but I will have some high quality screws for sure. Now I'm thinking having it screw in through the bottom is a better option.

Currently, there is a group buy going on for PCBs, but I don't trust myself to prototype PCBs so I won't be selling any. Also, a lot of existing Alice owners already have an extra PCB or two and so selling this as a kit could be redundant.

Not quite sure about this because one of my main gripes with the OG Alice was the form factor.

That's one of the reasons why I'm using Zambunon's models instead, since it's more compact.

Thanks everyone for all the support so far!
Based on the form responses, I have a few follow up questions I would appreciate if you guys could answer.
1. Would you guys like me to speak to ProjectKeyboard about adding a PCB for $30-40 higher (estimate)?
2. If you guys want other colors/materials, what would they be?
3. Would you guys be interested in a two-tone POM case (with a white diffuser layer)?
4. How many of you guys are in favor of using the original 'V' shape of the Alice as opposed to the more compact, flat version I proposed?
Thanks everyone!

depending on how the protos come out this may be a pickup, rgb isn't a priority for me either but I'd like to have least one board with it c:

I'll see what I can do with maybe having a white layer of POM in there somewhere.
I'm over the RGB fad. I wouldn't be sad if it was omitted. Or at a minimum ability to disable.

Well, there won't be a PCB included, but the PCB I recommend HAS the feature, for anyone who might want it

That's an interesting choice since no one is offering the Alice PCB in a readily available state.

Currently, there is a group buy going on for PCBs, but I don't trust myself to prototype PCBs so I won't be selling any. Also, a lot of existing Alice owners already have an extra PCB or two and so selling this as a kit could be redundant.

Just ask Yuktsi for some pcbs and do a limited run instead.

Color options are colored acrylic in any color you can think of :^)

You do know there is a GB running right now that is exactly that, it's hard to miss because it's the GB from which you took above pictures from, technically.

Ive made quite a few pom alices, and let me tell you, I regret it..  The material is a pain to work with, hard to purchase in usable condition, and the post processing acetal pom requires once it was cut was insane, thats why I quit.

If I can help in anyway please let me know, but my advice would be to get the pom machined out of a solid block, othewise you are going to run into the same issues I did where sourcing material flat enough for the laser could be a problem.

Wow, I was unaware of this! I am going to be sourcing high quality sheets for this, but I had no idea about the flatness issue. Could you send me a DM on Discord (eniigma#0683), or leave your username here?
