More design details about Khadas Tone Board

[bunkbail]

I could design a case and share the file. It takes a bit of time and effort though. Would be nice to know how many people are interested.

Count me in.

I would like input as to what it should look like. Maybe modeling it off of other good looking electronics gear. Think I should make a new topic for this?

Yes make a new thread for it, it will be a asset to us too as well as a kindness to those in need on a box for this excellent board.

Do similar board with xlr outs...

Uh. It's a non balanced design.

I'd be interested in a case.

@Ben1987 @willow Can I screw the Tone Board directly to the base of your DIY case if I take out the middle plastic part? The VIM and the Toneboard seem to have similar screw location

Thanks, ordered one board and one diy case from Aliexpress this week. I’ll see what I can do to fit the Tone Board in the case without the VIM. I will post pictures when my both the board and the case is here. Looks like I’m gonna need to find my own pcb spacers. Anyone know what the bottom screw cap thingy (the ones at the tip of the case feet) might be called in the shop?

Posted a thread regarding the possibility of creating a 3D printable case design for the Tone Board.

In the meantime, would these undrilled/raw "cases" suffice: a wooden box.

We'll open source, but it will take some time .

I'd be in a for a couple of cases if you make them available. I'd love to see something brushed aluminum but figure a 3d printed version might be more economical.

 

[Deleted member 3566]

Same. Put it in a simple, black, aluminium box, or any simple box for that matter, and it's an instant buy from me.

 

[amirm]

How much will you guys pay for an aluminum box?

I'll happily pay $10-15 more for the Khadas being sold with it, honestly.
