I'm new at building keyboards, so please excuse my ignorance. What would the assemble service include?

Solder all the switches with the type as your demand. Install all the stabilizers. You'll only need to install your keycaps after our assembling.

If I want to order 2 full kits, do I just fill out the form a second time?

Yes, please also leave a message in the second order that it's not filled by mistake.

So beautiful, I love how it's so sleek! Reminds me of my iphone! Nice  :thumb:

Not sure if this was asked already, will there be more prototypes showing a few more colours (of the outer casing at least)?
I'm not too good with visualising  :-X

Someone mentioned images of the case with keycaps -- that'll be great too.

We've only made 4 prototypes.

http://imgur.com/09E08mh Here are the photos for grey, black, and white

We also updates some photos of renders for different colors in the post

Is the black glossy?

Yes, all the cases except the white one will be glossy but only a little.

Thank you!

Will the brass weight be coated to prevent tarnishing?

Hello,

My first post in GeekHack actually! I'm really interested in ordering this board, it's so beautiful. I am still deciding which color I should choose. I have a question about the assembly option. I see you answered another poster's question about soldering the switches and installing stabilizers. My question is: must buyer provide the switches, or some stock will be provided? What switches will be available?

And a question about switch top removal option, this will allow me to change the switches installed in my board without desoldering?

Thanks so much.

How does switch selection work? Do I just tell you and you source them and I pay the extra cost?

We can provide normal switches like Gateron or Cherry MX switches. Which type do you want to use? You can PM me for details.

For switch top removable option, check the information here: http://builder-docs.swillkb.com/features/#switch-type

You will also need some tools like this: https://mechanicalkeyboards.com/shop/index.php?l=product_detail&p=1363

Those pics of the ice on the case look cool and scary at the same time.

I wouldnt want water on my board.

How white will the anodized white look? Is it a greyish white?

Are there any comparison photos?

So there will just be a small seam there instead of the gap? Or is it somehow seamless?

This board is really growing on me.

I know you're in group buy stage for this buy now, but still worth asking... Would you ever offer a angled board with normal winkeyless bottom row?

Good luck with the buy.

Remember to leave a message for the requirements of the assembling (layout, switches)

Yes, angled board is what many other people asked and it's very likely we will make angled boards the next time, but that's just one simple feature.

Right now, we're considering what's next to make. We prefer to make something new that no one did before, including new materials, new features, new layouts, new concepts, and anything will make people say WOW!

The gold color is almost identical to the gold iphone 7. Sorry I'm not able to make renders currently.  It shouldn't be too hard to imagine what the gold case looks like.
