Description

PODS by DeskDaily

The "Pod Mounting Kit" is a mounting solution to those who want to convert their top mount boards to a more bouncy (flexy) build or those who wants to go plateless but their boards don't support it.

The design was inspired from the "SIMP Kit" by sony but I made improvements that I think will result to a better typing feel. It is going to be made with a soft material, specifically silicon, to achieve the give that gasket mount provides. I made the bottom of the pod spherical to allow more squish compared with a cuboidal shape.

Theoretically, it should be compatible to all boards (regardless of the original mounting method) but it won't be effective on tray mount boards because the standoffs will not allow the pcb to flex/bounce.

The dimensions of the POD was determined based on what I think is the common measurement that most boards uses. You can refer to the image below for these measurements.
