I’m now working at the new prototype that will look more like the end result. The PCB design for this is done, the 3D models are done and I’ve arranged a CNC-milling machine I can use (thanks to Hoepner-Hoepner).
This week I will create the new case and send the PCB design to the factory to get the result in next week. I’ll then assemble the PCB and make the new prototype.
The next challenge is the push buttons. I decided not to go for the standard silicone buttons (as you can see I still did in the rendering blow). Reason for this is that I (and others I talked to) prefer the tactile push buttons which are easier to press and give this nice ‘click’-feedback so you know you actually pressed something. I’m testing 4 different buttons right now
