Resources

Special thanks to

  • Elaine for Unikorn. Allowed me to publish the Unikorn-inspired case as open source and encouraged me
  • Of course, I also show my respect and gratitude to yuktsi
  • coarse for PCB review and kind support. His great work has refined the PCB well

Also I should mention

  • OTD for 356 Mini. Origin of O-ring gasket mount style
  • Evy for Plain60 series. I used it as a reference for my PCB design. They also answered my miscellaneous questions
  • ai03 for MX_Alps_Hybrid and random-keyboard-parts.pretty. Also got a lot of help from his discord server
  • overset for JP01. The idea of publishing the case design on Onshape. After seeing their great work I switched from fusion360 to Onshape
  • Rhuk gave me a lot of advice on keyboard design and manufacturing
  • Maker Keyboards suggested adding a plate cutout to remove the PCB using a keycap puller
  • And many community members for giving me advice and feedback, thanks!
