Thank you !
It is not perfect (nothing is), but I am happy with the result so far.
Still a third one to make
The switches are not lubed yet so it may take a while.
Then I really don’t know what I will do next…

Hi Rico,
I was wondering if you could share where you got the case manufactured. I already have a design and am now looking around for a cnc shop which has decent quality.
Hi @primuds,
For this case I went with Xometry DE (European version of Xometry US, based in Germany).
Their CNC work has been good and their anodization pretty decent.
Prices are very expensive for a one off (it is not specific with Xometry), but the more you make the lower the price.
Still looking for a recommendation on a reliable China manufacturer to make one off not too much expensive, so if somebody in this forum has good source I’d be happy to know it
Lastly here is the Winghead build 3, this was the last keyboard I had to make.
I ordered long time ago Thick Thock DL springs 62g.
Was planning to make ergo clears with them but two unexpected events came recently.
So decided to use these springs with Gat blacks with the hope I could have something similar to the Yellows (and indeed it is).
This time I bag lubed the springs with Krytox GPL 105, stems (only them) still lubed with Krytox 205g0 but with a tad thicker coating to see how it goes.
If you lube only the stem like I did (and like does @jshufelt for quite a long time), applying a thicker coat does improve the smoothess without any bad consequences.
Used same brass plate with same sorbothane+foam treatment as the other ones.
Put my last keycap set to good use, Hiney’s VOC .
Here is the result (sorry for the very bad lighting):
The collection is now complete and will very soon be dispatched to different places were they’ll have their use.
Took some pictures of the 3 brothers altogether before they live their happy life alone.
Find me to custom ,it will cost very cheap
