VOID40 - A 40% Ortholinear Keyboard

thingiverse

## Description The VOID40 is a handwired 40% full grid ortholinear keyboard that uses a Pro Micro as a controller. If there's any demand at all I might edit and post a 2u spacebar version. The clearance for the case and plate parts is 0.2mm (so a tolerance of +/- 0.1mm); they should fit together without any issues at all, depending on how well your printer is set up. The top element can be easily removed and other 'modules'(design ideas are welcome) can be installed. Current design includes two of these elements, as they follow: Insert & Diffuser: 8mm wide. Insert 2: 2mm wide, no need for a diffuser, it has a 0.56 top layer, it should be printed with the filled layer on the bed. ## Bill of materials 12 x M3x10 countersunk screws for the plate 2 x M3x16 cheese head allen screws for the top element hot glue for added stiffness around the joint/case ## Sidenote You will have to manipulate the items in your slicer and lay some of them flat on the printing surface. You should print the case with supports enabled everywhere and the plate parts upside down, with the ribs facing upwards. For a better finish you could sand down parts of the case (the ones that are facing up, and the modular element) and even paint them. If you're going to print and build one of these, be careful with what wire gauge you're going to use for the matrix/controller. Check how much space you have for the wires because the controller slot is a pretty tight fit.
