From the project
weird sword keyboard
The Kopesh is an "alice-ortho" 40% (well, almost 50%...) Keyboard with (optionals) OLED and undeglow.
I've tried to give multiples options regarding mounting and plates so here you will find : - a Sandwish-mount acrylic case, where the PCB is just "hanging" and the whole thing is a stack of acrylic and (optionnaly) metal for the switchplate
- cutouts for a more slim case (just a bottom plate, switchplate) which can be made either of FR4 materials (PCB) or acrylic.
