    Updated clamshell design, now multi-parted to make assembly easier. Now also able to 3d print with enough tolerance that sliding mechanism of keyboard works really well.

    Closes nicely, snug fit of keyboard into shell, still open hinge at back that need to be covered and more design elements added to round out the shape. The screen is quite thick so need to optimize for height of unit.

    View here of 3D printed components, once everything is validated I will switch to resin in high resolution, also to improve hinge durability.

    Going to change the screen holder concept, with a bezel looks much better

    Initial prototype ready, with keyboard and screen holder printed in PLA. 

    Added magnetic strip backing for easy retrieval of screen. Will be useful later as portable e-reader or lanyard display when keyboard is not required.
