Anyone got a 105 ISO case or dead board lying around that I could acquire and refurbish with my own PCB and controller?

I'm looking to make some standard 105 key ISO layout PCB experiments. For this I'm looking for potential cases. Empty cases with reasonable PCB mounting options are ok; or something used where the electronics/PCB have irreparably died and are to be replaced are best, since I also need a set of switches and keycaps. Interested in both PCB-mount and plate-mount.

Thanks in advance.

Recently trashed lots of cases, but have one or two fugly cherry 3000 cases left. You can have one for the price of shipping (4-6€).

danke, klingt nicht schlecht. ("thanks, doesn't sound bad")

any internal parts as well, or just cases?

Only the case, but can take a look if I have anything else that you might be able to use.

Thank you, that would be useful if you can get around to it.

Basically I need a full keyboard, minus the PCB (and the cable - unless USB already).

Dear guk,

Is the case for plate-mounted or PCB-mounted switches?

It's pcb, old cherry mx 3000. Apart from that I could only offer you some old Alps keyboard, a MK-50 or a new MX3000 for cheap. Unless you want to modify a wkl case.

Thank you. How much would you want for these? I could also be interested in the wkl one. (Or does this belong to PM?)

is any of the MX ones plate-mounted by any chance? (I accidentally ordered plate-mount switches.)
