About us

• RShape offers a 3D printing & CNC Machining service, has a small workshop based in Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam.
  
• We have worked with many clients that made custom keyboards, and the more time we spend on them, the more we love them! Now we had the idea to make an artisan case and want to bring it in to life as a small contribution for the custom keyboard community. We hope to get  your support  :)!
  

Design

• Design 24 slots with 4 x 6 grid (20.5mm x 20.5mm) and a depth of 15mm
• Artisan case has 2 pieces (base and cover), held together by magnets D3x2mm
• Base made by CNC Aluminum 6061
• Cover made by CNC Clear Acrylic
• Color: Black/Grey
• Dimensions: W x L x H (107mm x 153mm x 20mm)

I'm not too big of a fan of the design, looks like a g21s without the internals

Having used the 1.Piece for a while, I can tell you that the high dividers at the intersections between slots aren't really the way to go. They just get in the way of your fingers, especially if they're tight enough to hold the keys without allowing them to wobble and turn. I'd recommend trying to get good fitment with shorter dividers than go the easier route with larger ones.

Very good feedback, I will take a look on the high of dividers and adjust it a bit for GB. It is even easier to make the case with shorter the divider :) !
