But I still hope you can test if you can.

Thanks! I will still test it if i get the opportunity. The plate uses different mount holes than mine though...

Yes. It isn't have center hole like you but it have capslock hole.

Just wanted yo say that I am talking with China about samples right now

Giorgio · « **Reply #153 on:** Sat, 25 April 2015, 04:29:03 »

People really need to see the plate and the pcb with all the switches mounted :-) just to be sure that it fits :-)))

Also... That brushed finish, as someone else said, is really too rough and ugly. I could do a better job with a cheap sand paper. Maybe you could ask for other finishing treatments? All, really all, the plates sold here are very smooth, with a very nice texture.

lolpes · « **Reply #154 on:** Sat, 25 April 2015, 08:47:13 »

If the price stays low i really don't mind if the finishing is rough, some sandpaper and done

Giorgio · « **Reply #155 on:** Sat, 25 April 2015, 09:08:10 »

Try to use the sandpaper and let's see how it goes

Since they make plates for some keyboard makers, I'm sure that they can give you any finish that you want, at the same price, a less rough one, applied with a circular motion would be better. Apple-aluminium keyboard finish would be optimum.

If the price stays the same, then sure a smooth finish is better

i'm just saying I don't mind doing it myself if it comes to that

Pietdagamer · « **Reply #157 on:** Mon, 27 April 2015, 12:59:10 »

I am defenitly interested in this, since I have been planning to build a 60% keyboard.

This plate will fit in this case right?

I will look at some different finishes. Samples are ordered, I just need to pay the shipping and they will send it.

LeandreN · « **Reply #160 on:** Tue, 28 April 2015, 00:34:43 »

Everything is on hold until I pay the shipping. Ordering ANSI advanced sample with brushed finish and ISO advanced with sand blasted finish, just to test things out. Thank you for following a long. The plan after I get the samples is to order a aluminium cast case from Pexon and test it with the plate, ordering cherry stabs and testing everything I can test.

Sorry if this is a dumb question... but will there be an option for an ANSI 150 (7u spacebar) layout?

It is just standard Poker layout. Nothing special.

Wait, what are the bend/angled plates in the background? Ö_Ö
The cutouts look non-staggered/linear to me from this angle... Are they lubing stations by any Chance?

I would be super interested in something like a standalone (GON skinny/ infinity60 case style) lubing station! :)
So if thats what it is I would be really stoked :thumb:

The angled stuff in the back is /u/Vistination's 6 key switch testers.

This is a plate and no lubeastation :-/

the mountholes have notches for top removal.

You may be interested in my Steel Switch Holder. It works quite well as a mini-lubing station. Click the leftmost image in my thumbnail for more info

Sorry Leandre for derailing your topic :P

No problem Dihedral.

I also own one of his they're are also good :) !

Sorry Lean, I know your mainly doing 60% plates and didn't mean to upset you... =/

It was hard to tell the size (of the switchtester) with the crop of the picture tho. And when I saw right angles I thought you did infinity style cases first, the noticed linear cuts and guessed lubestation.

It is okay. Sorry but this is only plates.

Yeah it looks like it in the picture, but as I said it is /u/Vistinations 6 key switch tester you can buy at sentrantpc.com.

I also recommend Dihedral's switch tester you can maybe use as a lubestation. (See the comments over)

Edit: and you didn't upset me at all

sorry if it sounds like it

FoC_Tow · « **Reply #169 on:** Fri, 01 May 2015, 16:44:03 »

Thx Lean! =) Just checked the Link, hadn't seen this one before!

And also thx Dihedral! I really like yours as a switch tester/display! =)

I would really love to have something slightly bigger (ideally about 60% size and linear) for this tho. Ill keep investigating for a bit!

Updated the OP. Let me know if you have any concerns. Hyped to get the samples :3 !

You had me on "Brazilian layout".

Count me in for some, and a possible partnership on a future crowdfunding here in Brazil.
