Title: 0-Stabilizer 60% (aka: Bianca)
Post by: Matt3o on Tue, 24 June 2014, 09:29:01
This time it's Bianca's turn. I wanted to design a stabilizers free 60%, this is what came out...

Raw materials

And here's Bianca, the craziest layout I've done so far, but it actually works pretty well...

I'll post all the CAD files soon if you are interested. (sorry I have to make some modifications first so you don't make my same mistakes).

Was the windowed key in the bottom row part of the Granite Set?! Didn't see it in any of the kits.

Wow, don't know why i decided to visit this sub-forum today, but I'm glad I did. That looks amazing.

Really wish I had the time to start getting into this...

Amazing! I was thinking about doing something similar, but instead only using 1u, 1.5u, and 2u keys so that it would be compatible with ErgoDox (my main) keysets. Any advice?

well the goal was to avoid stabilizers altogether, 2u keys are stabilized so I went for 1.75u that admittedly are hard to find.
