Pretty sure I already submitted the IC form, but any chance of a red case? The red on the alu plate is really nice. Love how bright it is.

Depending on the outcome of the IC, this may be difficult.

I'm sorry, the PCB is not compatible alps. It's difficult because the PCB and plate must be changed to accommodate alps.

Is the solenoid striking fr4 or the acrylic guard somehow? And would if be feasible to have it strike a different material? Like an eraser if you need to type on the DL, or a tiny wine glass for toasting purposes? :)

If only I'd known that Cornelius r2 was happening 6 months before.. I could've at least asked for polycarbonate case
Alu is too heavy for me to carry around, maybe next time
