60% aliminium keyboard case , where to buy

[Colby111C]

Hi everyone

I recently wanted to get a new keyboard , i currently have a ducky one two mini , instead im thinking of modding the ducky , like new case , switches and anything really to make it good

Does anyone know where i can get an aliminium 60% keyboard case for the ducky?

This would need to be custom milled unfortunately as I am 99% sure it doesn't exist.

@ENDU would probably be able to machine you one but it's not going to be cheap, in fact, probably cheaper to just but a new keyboard like a Keychron Q series that has everything that you want.

Just my 2c worth.

Just remember not all 60% are the same so you would need to make sure it will fit your board.
KDBfans is legit so no worry there.

You just have to note the compatibility here:

Yes, CntrlshiftEsc is legit..
Great guy.

If i can give you any advise, i think you are better off getting something new.
If you want to replace switches, is your board hotswap or soldered? If its the latter, you are going to have lots and lots of fun removing all the switches and replacing them and you run the risk of damaging the board in the process.

My suggestion, get a barebones kit that meets your requirement, get the switches, stabs and keycaps you like and build a new board.

Just my 2c's

At least you'll have a case if it doesn't fit you an build a custom board 👍🏻
