FJELL 60% High Profile Keyboard Case

So Smechksy. Any thoughts on a mint anodizing colour to go with the mint PCB? Also, zslane has a keycap set in the works that would look hot with this little bird.

Here you can test different combinations.

The colours are a bit off in the renders, hope to fix that soon, but you should get a general idea.

Most custom 60% PCBs should fit. I am still testing, and might have to do some compromises in terms of poker compability due to the larger plate

Please check if it fits some of those Alps compatible PCBs like Infinity 60, Leeku's Eagle/Viper PCB or Alps64.

No luck here. Checked all mail folders about 34 times just to be sure.

Looking forward to the build logs though! This is a fantastic case LeandreN! A real Beauty and a Beast in one. Hopefully you'll get some grey or black low profile cases in stock soon so I can build something while waiting for r2

Glad to still have you onboard. I am working on a newsletter so it's easier to see what's in and coming in stock.

Very fortunate to have squeaked by with a spot! I was getting OCD about how much I needed this to replace the FMJ case I just can't get into, haha. I was making plans for it before I even made it in, so I'm glad those didn't have to be put on hold.

Hi.

I am currently in contact with 3 factories that might be able to do the job of producing this case. I have some great ideas, and a large wish list for what I want this case to be.

Like I have said before, I will definitly take my time before charging the deposit. Since it is CNY and two of the three factories are placed in the east, I will have to be patient on that front. Meanwhile I am in contact with the last, and least likely place at the moment.

The samples are good, but there are still some flaws that I think are easily avoidable, machining marks mainly.

The reason for doing the draw early was to have everyone with me on the journey on making the perfect case, if I have to drastically change manufacturing, I will have to adjust the colour options, plate options etc. We are not there yet though, so no need to worry just yet.

I take time to do this only because I haven't charged any money yet, I personally think it is best to do all the work that can be done, before charging the customers, atleast in this situation.

I will share everything here, and looking forward to update you very soon
