"I would be really worried about the plate bending just from normal use since it seems to be so thin."
"The 1.5 shift is a bummer, but the design makes up for it."
"I'm not sure if there will be a big adjustment on my part."
"Looks like it's gonna be way out of my price range."
"I can only say that this looks incredible and I wish I could afford one."
"I did not notice this at first! Though admittedly, I am not mad at the idea."
"I'm wondering the same thing, idk if there is even a 1.5u shift in 40s kits."
Suggestions (3)
Maybe you can consider shifting the bottom row to the left so you can use 2u left shift.
Consider ISO in your PCB and Plate.
An alternative to the generative baseplate would be to have a generative design elsewhere in the board.
Questions (4)
Will keeping my eye out for this.
How will it affect sound if the bottom is open?
Can you define the order in which the plate is 'solved' by the generative algorithm?
Is there expected flex in the plate due to its structure?
