Custom keyboard
« on: Thu, 11 June 2015, 20:17:48 »
Hey, so im going to make a custom keyboard with the phantom PCB, and gateron switches.
My budget is $135 not including the Teensy 2.0, because i already have that. Here is my list so far. My biggest concern is the plate. I saw some ANSI 150 plate files floating around on this forum, but i am not sure what do do about the case. Maybe the stand off route?

Anways, heres my parts:
http://mechanicalkeyboards.com/shop/index.php?l=product_detail&p=1272 X 11 (its a 10 pack, and i want to have enough to build a numpad afterwards)
http://mechanicalkeyboards.com/shop/index.php?l=product_detail&p=536
http://mechanicalkeyboards.com/shop/index.php?l=product_detail&p=949

I want to grab that SA Carbon set pending on PMK, and pick up either a creamsicle brobot or something like that.

My only other problem is the Misc parts, like the diodes and the stabilizers... could someone nice link that to me :D

The cart you linked doesn't show anything but if you want an ANSI 105 plate/ JD style case I could make the CAD files for you.
People in the 1980s, in general, were clearly just better than we are now in every measurable way.

The dumber the reason the more it must be done
