Re: [IC] Sofia - 60% Standard / HHKB / WKL [PRODUCTION FOR PROTOTYPE)
« Reply #300 on: Sun, 10 May 2020, 15:40:34 »
Any new updates. I am literally watching Salvun making your board on stream.

The prototype is on the Anodizer right now. We have to wait until it comes back to salvun.

Are the 5 colours in the OP confirmed? Got confused following all the colour changes in the thread. Will the number of units be limited?

I only decide that most high number in color voting before.

Lavender Silver....
I hope i could make this color but Salvun still can't get this palette

Oke going to post this here!

Update on the covid-19 related delays!

Altho Salvun has kept working during these times. A lot of the supply lines and down line processing where very disturbed.
Machining of the Sophia proto is done. And at the anodizer.
We had no control over this and I do not disagree with the anodizers desicion to put everything non critical on hold until the high experience guys are back on the floor. And for them to prioritize medical stuff over other things.

So I have conformation from the anodizer that things are starting to move again and work will start next week on all the above projects!

i just get the message from Salvun, and then we are good to continue this project

Just curious because I couldn't find a direct answer in the thread. This board does not come with a PCB right? We have to order one separately from somewhere else?

No updates for now. But i hope next week, we can start the calculation.
I just submit my PCB design to mykeyboard.eu and he is working with Maarten for the PCB. And i'd like to have the PCB with some flex cutout like Plain60 PCB

Price is estimated to be around 300-400$ depending on add-ons (with or without the pcb).

Really hoping to see Sofia in GB soon!

Yeah I'd definitely consider this for a quality 60% at a good price.

Has there been any discussion about purchasing extra pieces along with a base kit? Example being if I want to get a Standard 60% top but also grab an HHKB top, extra plate to go with that, etc
