Building keyboards with lasers #Keyboards @KbdNews
Keyboard Builders’ Digest writes about building keyboard cases using vector graphics software and a laser cutter. Such cases can be found in applications like Raspberry Pi layered acrylic enclosures but lend themselves very well for keyboards as demonstrated by Ming-Gih Lam.
I was captivated by the cases designed by Qlavier and Switch Couture, particularly their sleekness and versatility of using stacked acrylic. This inspired me to invest in a laser cutter to try my hand at crafting similar cases myself. The added benefit? No need for complex 3D software – just good old 2D vector graphics which I was already familiar with.
Mapping out the layers can be one of the more challenging tasks.
