Hey guys, just wanted to share some info and feedback since I have a round 1 E6V2, and have experienced a few GB's personally or through friends, some good (Mechmini1/SA sets, Alf, Tric, 9009, Pristine) and some ****ed GB's (M65-A, Exent, Mech27 R1), and because I see some people questioning the future of the buy!

The quality and design of the board are excellent. A product of multiple GB's under his belt.

The fact that Exclusive is so flexible on colors/design/payments, and willing to work with everyone are clear signs of a person who cares more about your product than his product.

Another huge one is being active on multiple platforms and his own thread. As in, not disappearing from anxiety when things go wrong, responding quickly, etc. In the end, its not always about the money. A simple "sorry I ****ed up the buy" will go a longer way than disappearing.

So please don't be worried friends. Exclusive will make it right! Heres my E6, cheers!

I'm also a R1 E6-V2 owner. Exclusive has been one of the best GB runners I've had the experience being a part of, I have no doubts in his ability to deliver a product you will love :)

I don't think bro gamer sets are meant to be used like this, but I plan to do so on my E6:

I have no idea what keyset I would want on mine. Black-Red-Black; any suggestions? As of now, I only have GMK Nautilus, Laser, and Red Samurai. All are already planned for a different board (Lake M60-A, Purple Espectro, Dark Red CA66, respectively).

Have you looked into GMK Demonic:



Or perhaps GMK Led Zep:

I've seen them both but they're not my cup of tea. Hoping I'm able to find something by the time this gets delivered.

I have a local place near me that does PVD coating for tools, drillbits, and such. They offer gold TiN coating, that I'm going to see if they can do on my E6 nameplate, midpiece, and weight.

Also like to add, this is my all-time  favorite 60% design and I really can't wait to use it

He might have been answering the other question? The one about needing the files for the FE's.

Oi, not sure if the R2 pcbs have any changes, but https://www.reddit.com/u/merlin36 was able to update the configuration to support the existing QMK pcbs and my QMK repo:

http://config.qmk.fm/#/e6v2/KEYMAP_HHKB

Anything can be done with the standard KEYMAP (it has all the different split keys), but if you are using one of the specific layouts you can use that instead and not have to fill your layout with KC_NO for stuff that you don't use.

If the R2 QMK pcb happens to be different, let me know and I can work on adding support for that one too.

As someone who has never used QMK, which route would be easier?

Do we have the entire space of the weight to work with, or does the E6_V2 founders edition part need to be on there as well?

Thanks for the extension, exclusive!

In an earlier post you mentioned soimething about 160 mm width (https://geekhack.org/index.php?topic=94248.msg2571034#msg2571034), whereas here it says 210 mm. Not sure which one to pick now (210 looks more correct).
Also, from the sample picture above, what do the pink outlines around the holes mean?

I asked Exclusive last month, the 160mm is the width between two screw holes, 210mm is the overall length of the weight.
He suggests me to use the 160mm area only because if your diagram/figure is larger than 160, you need to be care about where the holes will show up in your diagram.

The pink outline is just some line in CAD software to show the boundary of holes, it will not be shown on the surface of final product, and personally I think the area inside cannot be printed since the surface is not flat.
