Title: Acrylic ErgoDox Case
Post by: ron953 on Thu, 02 October 2014, 11:35:09
I have access to a water jet cutter at my university and wanted to know where I could find the files for a layered acrylic ErgoDox case similar to the one they sell at mechanicalkeyboards.com with PCB mount stabilizer support. Would I have to design it myself? I would also probably be able to make more than one if anyone else is interested. Thanks for any help or input.

Classic or Full-hand?

I think I got my copy from GitHub, but also possibly just attached to the 'ergodox' thread that's stickied and has about a thousand posts to dredge through.

I'm running a GB for cases in metal, using the same files ... I see if I can't get them to you.

Sorry, no. They're missing. Have been for quite a while now.

Here, (https://www.dropbox.com/s/gz8ibussnyu5ibp/DXF_as_2Kver.zip?dl=0) I had somebody downgrade the .dxf to be Autocad-2000 compatible. Those are the classic files but I've got full hand (https://www.dropbox.com/s/98koo5gv25thmqi/FullHand.zip?dl=0) too.

Thanks for the link AKmalamute! With the mk.com version with the aluminum top plate, is the top layer the same but in metal? Thanks.

EDIT: Also, do you recommend classic or full-hand? Are there drawbacks to either one?

Right, it does not work any more.
There were times when it worked. I downloaded it from there.
