Does the BBB ACRYLIC CASE WITH RGB DIFFUSER Case come with a top plate to mount switches to? I am planning on buying a steel top plate with a winkeyless b.face x2 pcb in a group buy, do I need my own top plate?

Thanks!

Yup, layer 1 and 2 work as a plate. Here is an example: http://i.imgur.com/Bp2jf1o.jpg (source: https://www.reddit.com/r/MechanicalKeyboards/comments/3gqi6b/photos_b87_build_log_maybe_an_endgame_board/)

Awesome, thanks! If I have my own plate/pcb with switches installed to the plate, could i screw that onto this diffuser case?

Im not sure about this one, you need to wait for Hojin (the guy from WKL) to respond.

I’m not sure either.
You have to check the screw hole positions.

Thanks.

The plate should be this one by jdcarpe: http://images.bigcartel.com/bigcartel/product_images/165026944/max_w-1500/IMG-20150920-WA0002.jpg

Thanks Hojin/Gracz!

I think it doesn’t fit B.face’s other layers.

I can’t guarantee.

Please ask it to the seller of that plate.

Thanks.

Hey, I just found a case that would probably fit with the plate + B.Face PCB 😛
Here is the link: https://www.massdrop.com/buy/tex-acrylic-cnc-keyboard-case?mode=guest_open
It’s also made of acrylic. Here is a pic: https://massdrop-s3.imgix.net/product-images/texcase1.png?auto=format&fit=crop&w=761&dpr=1 I think it would look pretty cool with the B.Face PCB + that carbon plate.

Cheers

Yeah, that’s the one I was thinking of going with, with a plate. But I was wondering if the BBB WKL Diffuser case would work with a plate in case I didn’t like that acrylic one. Thanks for looking out for me!

Hi

As I said previously,
I don’t think the plate could be compatible with our other layers including diffuser.

B.face pcb could fit the plate you linked.
But our case doesn’t.

Thanks.
