An Alps+MX 65% board with a left hand number pad. Designed for maximum workspace fluidity, with centered alphanumerics and a full number pad without the compromise of pushing the mouse outwards. Full ISO support with flexible layout options that include a left handed arrow cluster, split backspace, and a full 4x5 macropad in the place of the numpad. Case options with pricing that spans across the board.

Layouts below. PCB Mounted Stabs only. For those with alps concerns, I'm working on an insert for PCB Mount cherry stabs that work with alps keycaps. Hopefully those will be done before this ships and I can throw some in.




Aluminum Case - Complete Kits starting at $210.00. Inc. both risers; 4 and 9 degrees.





Revisions:


USB opening revised to take all USB cables


Matching chamfer added to bottom edge


Support tabs milled into the corners of the case


Rear leg of 9 degree riser redesigned for new rubber pads


Bottom of case milled for rubber pad recess for use with cone feet


Both 4 and 9 degree risers now sit flush with the chamfer on the edge of the case


Both risers now have the front mount thread in from the bottom. This was done as there was not enough material on the risers to form strong enough threads if threaded from the top




Note that rubber feet for the keyboard will be included. They will most likely be the translucent thin material as opposed to the thicker crosshatched black material.



Integrated Case - Complete Kits for $107.50









Revisions:
- Drilled/Slotted for cone feet to give a 10ish degree angle
- Holes for diffuser removed



Bent Plate - Complete Kits for $91.50.


Builds into something like this: (75% board as an example)
