I'm hoping to gauge interest in a project like this. I find the switches interesting and I think it would be fun to develop an aluminum case and PCB for the switches.
Of course I don't yet have any designs worked up yet. I wanted to see if anyone even cared besides myself before I invested time and resources into the design
I've only put limited thought into the idea but the basics would include:
- low profile CNC aluminum base with a tilt
- basic backlight support (assuming these little switches support it)
- fully assembled PCB (integrated MCU)
- support for capslock indicator
- standard 60% layout.
let me know your thoughts. I haven't a clue about potential costs yet and I won't even speculate.
