Title: Other people projects: Clueboard, a 66% PCB that fits the FC660M case
Post by: VinnyCordeiro on Wed, 22 July 2015, 22:50:52

As stated, this project isn't mine. The original idea of its creator was to allow an ISO layout on a FC660M case (http://imgur.com/a/eILQm#0). He wrote some more detail here (https://www.reddit.com/r/MechanicalKeyboards/comments/3e9cjy/birth_of_the_clueboard_a_66_pcb_that_fits_the/).

I have found the idea interesting, but I don't know if people are willing to change Topre for Cherry/ALPS. Anyway a nice design exercise, and got rid of the non-standard Leopold space bar.

Why not use an FC660M as those are MX so not sacrificing the "sacred" cup rubber.
