Title: GH60 Plate DXF?
Post by: 0100010 on Tue, 20 September 2016, 14:29:03

Anyone have a DXF for a GH60 plate (of any key layout flavor)?

You can build one on KLE (http://www.keyboard-layout-editor.com/) and then put the raw data into Swill's plate generator (http://builder.swillkb.com/).

If I do, will it have the proper screw mount locations and rounded corners?

If you select the poker plate style and rounded corners in swills builder, yes.

Happen to know what mm radius to input for the corners?

I don't, something like 3mm would probably be appropriate as it's the same as the holes.

OK, thanks!  Will look around a bit.

Is it kosher to place a costar spacebar stabilizer above the switch (near the ZXCV row), instead of below (bottom edge of the board)?

EDIT : Kind of hard to tell, but the costar stab holes are offset in this DXF above the switch, instead of below.
