Description

Replacement case & key caps for the ZX Spectrum 48k to use with a mechanical keyboard PCB (https://www.pcbway.com/project/shareproject/ZX_Spectrum_Keyboard.html). Saves having to cut an original case.

 

*added a second version with rounded edges as I found the original too sharp for prolonged use. I've also added better supports for the keyboard PCB which stopped it from flexing during key presses. I'd recommend using this version, _curve in title.

 

Case has all the holes, feet etc... in the same place as an original 48k so you can connect an IF1 for example. Note if using with an IF1 do not add the middle screws to secure the MB in place (the ones with the holes through the case).

 

Case is secured with 4x9.5mm #4/M3 self tapping and the MB with 3x6.5mm #4/M3 self tapping.

 

*Update 24/7/25 - I've added a second set of KeyCaps  based on my Spectrum + replacement KeyCaps. These fit the mechanic switches not the Spectrum +. I've uploaded this as a print plate.

 

Original KeyCaps are based on @junlaings Preonic KeyCaps (https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:4088851) I basically used the blank to make these.

 

To get the coloured keys and logo you need to combine:

  • keycaps_small + keycaps_small_keys
  • zxkb_top_v0.6 + zxkb_top_v0.6_sinclairlogo
