Two cases for the CheapinoV2 split ergonomic keyboard designed by tompi. PCB footprint was obtained from the keyboard designer's GitHub, linked above.
Disclaimer:
I am completely self-taught so far as 3D modelling goes, so there are likely many things I could have done differently. That being said, I am fairly happy with how these came out.
Build notes:
- Assembly:
- For the tented version, I used M2 heat-set inserts (3mm height, 3mm diameter) to attach the base to the PCB, using 4mm M2 cap or button head screws.
- For the flat version, I used 4mm M2 screws and 4mm brass stand-offs.
- Inserting switches in the 3D printed switch plate can be tricky (my builds all used hot swap sockets)…be patient!
- I found that I had the best success inserting the middle row first, as this is where the plate flexes the most.
- Compatible with MX switches
Print details:
The pictured keyboard case was printed with:
- Sunlu PLA+
- 0.2 layer height
- Switch plate printed face down
- Auto generated supports (for RJ45 clearance)
Hope someone finds this useful! Please post pics if you print!
