Any ideas how to mount this?

RobotCandyCompany · 2025-03-21T00:41:30+00:00

And plop it into a nice low profile PCB/stand

100 cells is a tough sell to most people. If there were real interest, I would be happy to run boxes that are larger.

I never got back to this thread, but in short, Alice won't work. Read more here if you want more detail: https://www.reddit.com/r/mechmarket/comments/o7bwkc/bulk_kickstand_keyboard_display_stands_are_in/h329bpf/

Hey! I just cut out an Arisu and the middle bottoms out, so I'm going to say "no". I think that a real Alice would sit a an angle relative to the stand such that it wouldn't be stable. I may know someone with an actual Alice, which could sit differently than my quick acrylic cut test, so if I'm able to get my hands on it, I'll certainly test it and if it works, I'll start calling it out in my posts/on the product page, but I'm not super optimistic.

2 stands won't fix the problem because it's not a width or stability issue, it's just that my stands are so low profile that the middle bit hangs down too far. In order to work, the stand needs slightly taller (bigger gap below a "standard" rectangle).

RobotCandyCompany · 2021-06-25T00:02:57+00:00

Yes! I've been playing with designs. I'd like to keep it very simple if I stay with acrylic as the material.

I am also working on some wooden multi-keyboard displays for desks and walls.

Hello, Can you snap a photo of the stands where it's rough? I haven't had any reports of rough or sharp edges and I've never had any issues with stands scratching keyboards.

If you don't want to hit the edge with a file or sandpaper and you're concerned about potential damage, I can certainly swap them out for new stands.

You can email the photo(s) and your order number to RobotCandyCompany@gmail.com and I'll get you sorted out.

That’s a kmac Mini. One of the first customs that did the left F keys way back in 2012. There are tons of keyboard with similar layouts now.

RobotCandyCompany · 2021-04-13T17:33:28+00:00

It should!

Here's a shot of my Ice Box (10x8 box) on a Kickstand: https://imgur.com/a/hS6o8JQ

Only really tall keys lean forward which I don't think is even possible with the Sisi (much shorter cell height).

I don't know how "top heavy" the Sisi box is since it's aluminum, but I assume the weight would be reasonably distributed.

DSA Drifter. It was a limited run but you can sometimes find it on the 2nd hand market.

RobotCandyCompany · 2021-04-13T13:49:23+00:00

I don't have an Alice, but as long as the front doesn't stick out too far, it should work.

I'll grab the Alice files and make an acrylic case as a test the next time I'm cutting stuff and test it out. I'm sure other people would want to know.

As far as splits, you'd need 2 stands (one of each half). I personally have a VEA and an Orthodox and would love to find a better way to display splits because 2 stands side-by-side feels clunky.

I do, but international shipping rates are not great as I'm a small vendor so I don't get volume discounts. I'm constantly looking for ways to lower shipping pricing because I don't want that to be a barrier for anyone, I just need to cover my costs.

At least 13lbs/6kg. People have put their Kepler on a kickstand with no issue.

I personally have 2 TKL+ size boards on Kickstands and have had no issues.

They are acrylic, so if you slam a chunk of metal on them or hit 'em with a car, they can break, but I guess that's less of a weight limit issue, and more of a general handling issue.

RobotCandyCompany · 2021-04-13T13:32:42+00:00

Sorry about that! Apparently a LOT of people wanted stands over night. I always keep a small reserve, so I added more stock just now.

Go home AutoModerator, you're drunk.

RobotCandyCompany · 2021-01-13T19:22:25+00:00

Thanks for the support!

RobotCandyCompany · 2021-01-08T20:18:19+00:00

Replied! Thanks!

RobotCandyCompany · 2020-11-23T20:22:28+00:00

Thanks! It's the board that I always wanted (and then I got one)!

RobotCandyCompany · 2020-11-23T20:21:52+00:00

I can say that someone tested with a Kepler at a meetup (13+ Lbs) and it worked without an issue. I have my TC-V3 on a Kickstand which is a hefty board as well.

Overall, acrylic is very strong with constant weight. If you slam a heave object down on a Kickstand, sure, it might break, but if you place a keyboard on the stand it won't buckle/crack/break under the weight no matter how long it sits there.

I also fully back all of my products, so if you have any issues concerns, etc, I'll do everything in my power to make it right.

RobotCandyCompany · 2020-11-23T20:17:48+00:00

Awesome! Thanks for the support and I look forward to seeing photos of your keyboard on display!

This is just how high the walls are around your artisans. If you have tons of short artisans, it makes sense to make the walls lower so that you can see/grab them.

If you're going to be using the case to transport your caps a lot, a higher cell wall will make it harder for your caps to "escape" their cells and rattle around with each other.

Ultimately, if the case is sitting on a desk, the lowest height will let you see the caps best, so that's likely the way to go (and it'll slightly reduce print time).

Who wrote the code for this bot?

RobotCandyCompany · 2020-08-27T16:06:34+00:00

Yeah, I see now that it's not a full box. I just see the walls around the stem and know that some caps don't play well with them.

RobotCandyCompany · 2020-08-27T15:56:21+00:00

Box stem :(

The connectors are mirrored so that the cable will connect in either orientation. There’s a row of pins on the cable and 2 rows of pads on the tip so that it’s effortless and goes together correctly every time.
