If this was low profile, maybe. When we figure out who makes the case can we ask for a low profile case, maybe in a cheaper option :P I can wish, right?

RacingRotaryA low profile case, similar to those for the poker, isn't possible with the 660 for the same reason there can't be one for a tkl board. You need that second piece of aluminum to cover up the bare plate. Between the arrows and insert/delete keys.

RacingRotaryIt's impossible because the plate of the FC660M is bent upwards on the top and bottom to form a lip that's about 4mm. I have no idea why they designed it like that but you would need a whole new plate to use a low profile case.

yehoshuaCThere is no extra security added by covering the area in between the above-mentioned sections of the keyboard. All low profile cases have a "bare plate" underneath, plate mounted or board mounted.

Jerry8I have been looking at this issue with another redditor on r/MK. The design would end up looking and functioning similar to the corsair low profile keyboard with a greater severity. The ease of cleaning underneath would be the same as if the lips were not there. Cosmetically the effect of a true low profile case may not be the same, but the design is not "impossible".

RacingRotaryA true low profile case (which people would be buying for cosmetics) is impossible. A "low" profile case with a nonuniform and fairly large lip with a large visible screw to hold it together and cover the exposed hole is possible.

Silent Holy Panda X?
I ordered some Holy Panda X switches, and I fell in love with them. They are a joy to type on. There's just one problem. The place that I use my keyboard to type the most is obviously at work, which is a problem if I want to use the Holy Panda X in the office around a whole bunch of people. I really don't want to torture my coworkers with the clack of these switches. I'd rather they still liked me. The good news is that, for me, the actuation of the Holy Panda X is the best part. I could take or leave the sound it makes; even if it is fantastic. Which leads me to my conundrum: is there another "silent" switch that feels similar to the Holy Panda X? Is there a piece I can remove from the Holy Panda X that would allow me to make them silent? Or am I going to have to wait and see if Drop will drop a Silent Holy Panda X for the in-office mech community?

Support for Alternative Layouts
This is a summary of how alternative layouts have been supported by kits such as Colevrak and Homing. It is not a discussion of alt layout performance and development, but if that interests you I highly recommend starting with Pascal Getreuer’s A guide to alt keyboard layouts (why, how, which one?). It’s a concise and comprehensive overview with links to some great sites that go deeper. He also has a separate Links about keyboards page. The Keyboard layouts doc he recommends explains layout goals and metrics in detail, summarizing the alt layouts discussed here as well as more than one hundred others. Sculpted-profile The majority of custom keycap sets are sculpted-profile (Cherry, SA, MT3, KAT, etc. - more on profiles generally here) so let’s start there. Because each row has a unique keycap shape, alt layouts require a unique keycap for each legend that moves off its QWERTY row. At first there were two The Dvorak layout was patented in 1936 by August Dvorak & William L....
