As cool as it looks how i set up up the aluminium top and bottom and acrylic center it was a complete waste, the layers are rough, has stains on it, has to be dremeled to fit the pcb on the 2nd layer, and its just all around lower quality compared to the acrylic. i'm actually going to replace the top and bottom back with acrylic so that it is lighter for travel.
I hope someone comes around and makes a new case for the ergodox, maybe cnc, i dont know. Maybe i should stop being so damn lazy and do it myself. even as a limited run of lets say a dozen cases i am sure people would buy them, with over 300 ergodox sold there is bound to be people like me that dont like the case. no offense to litster though, he still has made amazing things.
so i am ashamed of myself for how much money i have thrown at stuff the last year and i need to work on selling some stuff soon, but that being said i may drop the $155 for a third one of these without the switches and put the kit in a safe of some sort just in case something happens to the 2 i have (stolen, broken, fire, etc), this thing is that much of a game changer for me and although i cant say this with complete certainty, it is absolutely possible this could be the last chance to buy the ergodox as a complete kit.
