What's the deal here? I'm guessing those random metal parts anodising samples? Do you have any more pics of the completed board? Does it take a standard 60% PCB?

Yes, these are samples and the purple one is the final sample. I haven't built that one yet since it's being given to a friend of mine to build it on stream. It does support any standard 60% pcb.

So far we have only 5 spots sold. But after talking to the factory I have until mid to late February to sell all the spots. I will keep promoting it over reddit and any other ways that I can. A buddy of mine just built his that I sent to him and his picture should be up very soon.

Sic_Alpha · « **Reply #24 on:** Tue, 15 January 2019, 17:47:10 »

Just found you on here too, asked you a few questions over on reddit posts... I'm close to pulling the trigger on this.

Can you show an image of the back where the USB cable plugs in? also a picture of what the inside of the anode looks like? Does the PCB mount to the bottom? I'm planning on doing hot-swap switches and read that plate-mount only isn't the best for that. Will it support USB-C cables? I have lots of questions because I'm new to this, and I've learned that there is wisdom in asking as much as possible before buying. I've already made a few mistakes in layout etc...

Was thinking that the purple would look nice with GMK Plum and/or GMK Hyperfuse Remix

Thanks

You can just fill another form and I can combine it manually. It will just be +$10 more. So if you're in the US it will be $40 to ship both.

Trying to get a friend on board to get another case together and save bit of shipping; hasn't panned out yet

I'm being as persuasive as I can...

Question: Is the Red Wine case color similar to the red keys that come with GMK Plum? Or would it at least compliment that set well?

The gmk plum is a bit different compared to the wine red, so i would not try to match them.
Gmk burgundy/dolch R01 should be a better match.

BserLarry · « **Reply #35 on:** Sat, 26 January 2019, 09:43:13 »

Actually I think a bit more thought could go into publicity (edit the OP):
What are your inspiration when it comes to the case design?
What are some real life shots / renders of the color options of the full keyboard not shown?
You mentioned you found 2 great anodizing shops, what are your experiences / judgements on why you think they make great anodizing?
What trademark features does the case have? (Can be an elaboration of the specs)
I think we would also appreciate more sound tests at a high quality audio and video!

Oscar2177 · « **Reply #36 on:** Tue, 26 February 2019, 07:56:14 »

Update: Chinese New Year is finally over and spots are still available. Estimated time frame of getting the cases anodized and shipped is late March or early April. All cases have already been made. Due to some reasons I plan on leaving the hobby right after the GB so I just want to sell all the spots and don't really want to make money and just sell all the boards. The price is set to $230 including pp fees.

So for anyone interested in how everything screws in or looks taken apart here are some pictures. The weight screws in to the bottom, the plate screws in to the top piece and the bottom and top piece screw in together.

Don't worry about that. My paypal does that with any invoice that I make no matter the amount of money. It will clear up in a day or two.

Hello everyone, I have just been told by the factory that the cases are done anodizing. I will be receiving photos shortly and will post them as soon as possible

Now that we are into May, is there a timeline update for when they are planned to ship to us?

I will like to have everything shipped out by the end of the month if possible without delays but everything will for sure be sent to everybody no later then june since all the cases have already been done anodized and I'll be showing the pictures shortly.

Here is a picture of all the different colors that the shop has sent me. Keep in mind the lighting is very bright in the picture and the colors are a bit darker than that.

Oof, looks nice. I take it that even if shipping may take until the end of the month, that with the boards being done anodizing that they should start shipping relatively soon?

I am sending the payment to the factory this week and once they receive it they should be getting ready to ship them to me as soon as possible.

The cases look fantastic! Thanks for the update.

Was it ever said what the shipping method will be? I'll be moving at the end of June, so depending on the expected delivery time I may need to change my address.

Hello, the shipping method will be USPS. The keyboards have just been shipped out and will be arriving to me this monday, I will start shipping them out once I receive them and post pictures of them when I get them in as well.

Mine came as an email from paypal. You should be able to pull up the invoice and find tracking on there.

Hello everyone, I apologize for not updating anyone for a bit. Been very busy last week and wasn't home to do anything, I'll be shipping the boards this week. I was able to ship out 3 boards yesterday and will be shipping the rest out this week. If anyone that wasn't able to join the GB is interested in a board feel free to contact me, I'll be selling them at GB price.

Sic_Alpha · « **Reply #103 on:** Wed, 26 June 2019, 16:00:52 »

I shall call it Donatello!

I also have Originative Hyperfuse Remix and Origins that I'm combining to use on it.

This board is beautiful and super heavy. The color is a deep purple, and looks great! Here it is with JTK Purple on White installed on it.

Added a layer of adhesive sorbothane to the plate. Anyone know how to get rid of the discoloration from the brass weight? It doesn't just wipe off.

Nice! I also added MK Ultra's foam to mine. I also added super thin layer of shelf-liner between the PCB and bottom to ensure it didnt short the switches.

I havent tried to clean off the marks from the brass on mine yet, but there are LOTS of brass cleaners and polishers out there. Just make sure you take the brass off before cleaning, because it could hurt the anodized aluminum. Or you can leave it and over time it will patina and age and get more personality.

Did you have to provide a drawing for the foam from MK Ultra? The dxf file that was provided earlier doesn't match the plate we got exactly. I'd be interested in MK Ultra's stuff. Cutting that sorbothane with an exacto was a pain!!!!

I used the 60% ANSI foam. The top/upper version doesn't have standoff holes and fit perfectly. The only issue I ran into was having to compress the plate and pcb while soldering on my switches so that they werent too thick to fit back on the case.

Finally got it all together. Really like the way it feels and sounds. Zeal60 with 3203 lubed Zealios 78g

I had to clip the stems from the switches that lined up over the brass weight screws and cover the screws with electrical tape; it was shorting out those switches; stems were puncturing black tape before I clipped them.

Just an FYI if anyone else runs into that.

wixxzblu · « **Reply #114 on:** Mon, 01 July 2019, 07:46:10 »

What do you mean by "stems" of the switches? Do you mean the contact legs that you solder or the pcb moun pegs?

And this only applies to the switches that are above the weight screws?

Yes, the legs of the switches that get soldered to the PCB. I didn't know the proper vernacular. And it only applied to the ones that came in contact with the brass weight mounting screws.
