New member looking to machine some cases

[CoreyMFG]

Hi there everyone! I am a noob keyboard enthusiast looking to join the community. Currently just using a off the shelf mechanical gaming keyboard (G710+) and a Azio at work. I have a 3 axis CNC Mill and have seen a few people asking for quotes on custom cases. I would like to help from the manufacturing side as especially now there is some free time on the CNC. I am hoping to help keep some manufacturing in the USA aswell as come up with some common solutions to machining cases. Hopefully this will result in quicker lead times, less design changes, and lower costs for everyone envolved.

Hi CoreyMFG. Welcome to Geekhack.

You might want to post your CNC ideas in the Making Stuff Together section, or if you're thinking of full-on production right away, with a plan in mind, the Interest Check section.

What switches have you got in your current boards? How do you like them?

I will make a post in the Making Stuff Together section. I dont have a design of my own, more looking to help others with theirs.

The g710+ is has Cherry mx brown switches. They are not bad overall, I  need to get something different in the future to compare to.

Sounds good. I'm sure you'll find a niche there.

What about the Azio? Have you looked at any switch testers?

MX brown is a dirty phrase for some, but loved by others. lol
