    Finally plateless xt after Jubi

    However, not a fan that you can see the two different colors from all sides. If Top and Bottom have different colors, I would rather only see bottom color from behind only and from side. Looks kinda weird to me otherwise.

    Sand is a grey?

    Bottom always silver and Top is the mentioned colors?

    Color samples, bottom and top pic are the same colors?

    Hope price can be reduced with GB.

    The top and bottom aluminium cases are the same colour, I think the silver piece you are referring to is the stainless steel weight along the edge and the polycarbonate piece. I am right in thinking that?

    Sand is a tan colour.

    Yes both colour samples are the same colours, just in different lighting conditions and a different order.

    hell yeah, this is very cool. that's a smart design to allow for traditional o-ring mount, always cool to see new approaches to mounting

    corner blockers (hhkb style) would be a nice option to have for layout - (i find my hands naturally gravitate towards that)
    love the XT column on a 60

    Very interesting! Plateless O-ring seems fun, curious how that feels. Love the look and the small lip at the front of the board!

    I always thought Gummy O-Ring and Plateless, two of my favorite things, were mutually exclusive.

    You, sir, are a mad genius. I don't have 500 bucks but GLWIC, this really looks and sounds like a premium board that deserves that price.
