My new display arrived over the weekend and I took some time to take measurements and get proper fitment on my model.
I haven't decided exactly how I want to do the screen design quite yet. I have been able to flush mount the screen to the face of the model and it looks sleek as hell, but I would like it if I could still keep the lifted "bezel" that the Model 100 has.
I have mocked up both, however, the latter requires a lot more detail work as the bezel needs to be printed separately and fused to the completed shell without any gaps. I'll need to play around with it a bit more, but either way, I think it looks awesome!
Just found out my custom keyboard plate was shipped from Xometry! Once that is up and built, I should be able to do my first functional prototype.

Wait, are you also writing a T100 emulator (first image)?
Are you sure? yes | no
I wish I was cool enough to say yes! Super green when it comes to programming. This is actually my first big coding project, I’m writing the firmware for the keyboard in Python.
The image is an online emulator that I found. I’ll definitely be installing one when I am finished though!
