Note: it's not a free model, costs about $9.35

I thought this was pretty cool design though, definitely something I've wanted to have before.

If it’s a good model that someone put time into designing I’m ok paying for it. My time isn’t free either. But I do submit some of my designs for free just because I want people to get use out of something I did.

Edit: Plus I would love this setup for work…. a tiny little cyber deck. Could be useful in a data center for setup and whatnot. A tiny crash cart.

This logitech keyboard looks cool but the quality is horrible.

[-] krolden@lemmy.ml 1 points 11 hours ago

Yeah theres so many low profile mechs that would be awesome in this

Don't bing that evil on us.

I didn’t think it could get any bigger. I was wrong.

That's just a laptop with extra steps.

Linux native laptop

Yes but this way you can have both without needing a second device

[-] dharmacurious@slrpnk.net 11 points 1 day ago

It's way better than a laptop. I can't hold a laptop and play games with the ease I can pop this out of it's case and use.

The render looks nice, the print, less so.

[-] Fubarberry@sopuli.xyz 5 points 1 day ago

True of most 3d prints unfortunately, although ultimately it comes down to your printer.

[-] anguo@lemmy.ca 4 points 1 day ago

You can also design and orient it in a way that avoids overhangs and makes for a better print. I think this looks great, but doesn't really look like something designed to be printed on an FDM printer (on first sight).

This is cool as fuck and very cyberpunk.

Bruh why do you think the Steam Deck is called that in the first place?

[-] Grimpen@lemmy.ca 4 points 1 day ago

Yes, but Valve just evoked a cyberdeck, OP took it the rest of the way.

I've got a 60% mechanical keyboard I use with my SD a lot, some street if combined carry case would be cool.

[-] averyminya@beehaw.org 1 points 10 hours ago

The Steam Deck almost annihilated the cyberdeck subreddit lol

[-] Walk_blesseD 2 points 1 day ago

Yeah fair enough

[-] TropicalDingdong@lemmy.world 14 points 1 day ago

I dont like that they designed around the pebble, which doesn't have onboard rechargable batteries.

The mxmini would have been a better design choice and is about the same size. Dead ass if they had something like this built with the USB C hub as part of the design, I'd be buying it right now. The biggest criticism I have of the steam deck is the case. It seems like they could have designed it to be a stand fairly easily.

[-] dharmacurious@slrpnk.net 2 points 1 day ago

That's what I'm saying. I hate taking it and a laptop when I know I'm gonna be somewhere for hours. If they made the case like a stand, with room in it for a small keyboard and mouse, I could basically just have the one device for everything I need.

$10 isn't bad. I wonder if there's foss examples. Are the keys rubber dome?

If they're not specified, they're most likely regular membrane.

[-] magikmw@lemm.ee 3 points 1 day ago

I have it, it's membrane. It's pretty good for the price.

[-] Xanthrax@lemmy.world 2 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago)

Oh, I know that keyboard! It still reminds me of the ebox remote keyboards. I forgot mini/ accessory keyboards like that exist.

[-] dharmacurious@slrpnk.net 3 points 1 day ago

If anyone wants to print this and sell me one, I would be very, very game for that.

[-] technomad@slrpnk.net 2 points 22 hours ago

Why not use a print service?

[-] 6gybf@sh.itjust.works 3 points 1 day ago

Just want to charge with default case closed

Ah yes, the opposite of ergonomic layout. Perfect for some carpal tunnel infused trigger finger.

That’s very cool
