Carrying Case

[feteru]

Does anyone know if there is a good keyboard carrying case for full-size keyboards, similar to elitekeyboards' carrying case, just for 104-key boards. I saw Mill.Dragon (Pro SC2 player) with a Razer over the shoulder one, but I would prefer it to have minimal branding.

I'm a sewing contractor with my own factory. I'm currently in the process of creating my own prototype for an all in 1 laptop/keyboard/peripherals bag. A single strap with a buckle in the middle that can be rebuckled to the bag to make it a double strap hand bag, satchel style with a window under the satchel. The upside to the design is that it's also great just for keyboards if you dont want to use the laptop spot, as the dividers will have elastic in them. That way it can just be a keyboard(s)/peripherals bag that can now hold up to 3-4 keyboards/mice/keycaps/tools and tons more instead of a laptop and 2 keyboards.

It's still in blueprints, but i have plenty of pre-made prototypes from previous bags in this style made for other customers. If you have any ideas you'd like to add to this design, look through the forums for my big thread on the subject. It's going to be pretty customizable with your choice of textiles and grommet, stitching, & buckle colors.

If you have a picture/mock-up of this design that I could see that would be awesome. That does sound cool though, because I would also want to transport my laptop and mouse.

No pictures yet, as we are a factory and we dont have alot of time to mess around with side projects. This will be the first time we have ever sold one of our own products as all we normally do is get blue prints from customers and make the blue print into a reality. Aka our slogan "From Concept to Reality"

The biggest flaw we are having as of right now with the bag design is figuring out what to do with the cables that dont detach from the keyboards in an organized fashion that makes it easy for the user. We were thinking of coils on the side of the bag with little holes. Basically you stick the keyboard in vertically then feed the cable through a little hole on the outside of the bag. Then on the outside of the bag there would be two posts which the user would wrap the cord around then Velcro shut a flap over it.

Could you not also have a long pocket, the length of the keyboard, in which you could tuck the keyboard, and then have a velcro top with periodic slits that the cable could slip through? That way, you could store the cable alongside the keyboard without having to wrap it extensively, as well as being able to simply just pull the kb out of the bag without worrying too much about the cables. Just a thought!
EDIT: Also, do you have any idea on the dimensions of the final product?

You cant underestimate the length of a full size model m board. Which is already going to make the bag pretty big.

Yeah, I guess. I meant it almost as a thin velcro strap that is flush with one side of it, and doesn't add much mass. I really don't know what your design is, so I can't say, but good luck with it!
