some pics of mockup 1 (red) & mockup 2 (just arrived, white)

connection to bottom, will be at a different place and will be cleaned up. but to give an impression.





mockup 2

changelog:
-magnets to slightly different position
-added toh-triggerfinger
-connection to bottom part to different position
-reducing size of base-pcb
-screw holes to clamp pcb to shell
-alignment dimples (holes) for both positions
-added chamfer to camera and flash

overview


dimples for alignment



connection between parts, added screwholes


waiting for bigger magnets


screws to secure pcb



comments and thoughts
-dimples work perfect for aligning the kb, feels very solid
-as a concequence, the opening/closing is not feeling less awesome, have to reshape dimples
-magnets apparently have to stay a week (or longer?) at customs
-connection between parts works, but needs refining, more details on that later
-screws to secure pcb look cool
