Hey, would anyone be kind enough to tell me how much the whole endeavor would cost? (or in what balllpark it runs in) before i put my finger in the gear :S
from what i understand
pcb 35
plate 15-35 (based off GB from boost and whitefire
Case =??? (i saw some made in aluminum that were like 300+ but thats a bit out of my budget range)
keys = 40-50? @ around .4 per key or something like that
and then you would need keycaps ofc...am i missing anything else?
1 PCB (includes 2 white LEDs and2 resistors) - $35
1 Plate - $25
1 Teensy (includes 1 40-pin pin header) - $16
100 switches - $65ish (I think that's what I paid to get them from 7bit)
100 diodes - $4
4 2x stabilizers for ANSI or 3 2x stabilizers for ISO or 0 for PH7BIT - (??)
1 7x or 1 6.25x stabilizer set for spacebar or 0 for PH7BIT - (??)
1 case - Depends on what you go with or can find. There are acrylic cases that would work starting at $40ish, or you could try and find another filco case.
I would think, all said and done to plan for $300 before caps.
