monome enclosure design v4 - "companion low profile"

A low-cost, light-diy monome enclosure, named "companion low profile".

Assembled:


Parts:


Changes from previous design:

• Uses 4.5mm faceplate, and 3mm spacers directly under the faceplate to give a 7.5mm depth so the keys stick out only 1.5mm and lay flush with the surface when depressed. Bolt length changes because of this space.
  

Parts & tools needed list:

• The laser cut parts pictured above
  
• 6mm 10mm M3 metric bolts - 17 of these
• 35mm M3 metric bolts - 8 of these
  
• 7/64" drill bit
• drill
• screwdriver
• rubber feet
  

Steps:

1. Drill 17 holes on the crosses to a depth of 3mm with a 7/64" drill bit.
2. Bolt the Grid PCB to the faceplate, bolt the Logic PCB to the bottom plate.
3. Connect ribbon cables between PCBs and test that the unit works before assembly. Connect pieces and bolt the whole enclosure together from the bottom. Apply rubber feet.
   

Options:

• The three pieces that make up the faceplate, walls, and bottom plate can be any combination of colors from http://www.ponoko.com/make-and-sell/materials#9, however walls must be 6mm/0.24" deep, faceplate must be deeper than around 5mm but no more than around 7.5m faceplate must be 4.5mm deep, bottom plate must be 3mm/0.12" deep.
• Can use countersunk 35mm bolts if you want them to be flush with the underside, length and drill depth remain be the same.
• Can engrave designs on the faces of the materials, however, this means the crosses for the drill points cannot be laser engraved on the underside, you must measure and mark the points yourself.
