OK I have finished the CAD...again.

I've cut a few things and applied cheaper solutions to more expensive items; hopefully this will make it cheaper without changing its nature too much, it's all down to the quotes I get back in the end.

Revised the way to connect aluminium and plastic

Changed the standoffs for more affordable ones...not a fan but hey...

Removed clamp for power switch

Replaced power switch with a cheaper reset switch ( it does the same thing) but it costs £3

Removed the sleeve/braiding from the power switch

Removed the sleeving/braiding from the keyboard

Reduced the amount of punching required in the aluminium

I'll email the CAD files and wait for a quote.

Thanks! :)


Is this to reduce your cost, or is it to reduce retail price? Because I thought the price was arbitrarily chosen:
