Title: Minorca and Sebright design evolution thread
Post by: AlexAtPanc on Wed, 08 March 2017, 09:21:16
Figured this would be good for posterity, if anyone gives a **** about the design progression involved with these boards.

I'll start with a few pics and update with theory as time allows.

Mk. VI Minorca with some sweet artisans. Not pictured: My purple cheddarcap because it was sprucing up a different build.

New prototype!

PCB project is coming along incredibly well. I'm getting new protos done with additional edits to the case, but these are going to include an integrated switchplate and optional diffuser.

More pics to come. I'm working on the "henhouse" (backers edition) builds. I'm QCing, blasting, sanding, color treating, assembling, more QCing, and testing them all out before they roll out the door.

Minorca and Sebright 40% milled aluminum prototypes have landed, and they look great!
