Is there a pricing estimate for the Kira60, trying to decide between Fjell and Paradox.

200-300 or 300-400?

Was there already a GB for the Kira75/Mir75? I need it in my life. :(

Filled out. Depending on timing, final quote, and additional details -- photos of prototype, plate/PCB/case/weight details -- I could be interested in joining. I like this case, but would definitely want to know of what it looks and sounds like, as there already seems to be a prototype available.

The plate mounting points have changed, so the sound probably changed too from this early prototype.

Planning to do another compact 1800, since this is the layout I use most of the time.

I simply meant I added a screw and they moved a bit.

It would be cool to see the iconic KIRA angles on the flat part of the side profile, its looks a little uninspired

No planned side glows, infiniti and I are not huge LED fans.

So the clear-ish looking bit where the board splits is supposed to be aluminum? I was confused as to what it is supposed to be/why it is rendered differently

Sorry, by side glows I meant the sides, front and rear. I forgot to mention the inner sides where the splits meet can possibly be plastic.

Will either of these go through beamingrobot's manu? I love the finish and color on all of the KIRA boards that went through him.

Also gonna ask for some updates on that split tkl again because that's my endgame

To clarify, it’s not “beamingrobot’s manu” because I introduced him to the factory, and I was intorduced to this factory by another designer. The KIRA60 will be made by the same manufacturer that made the v1 and EXS, and most of my other prototypes. The KN2.10 will be made by a different manufacturer.

For the split TKL we’re waiting on the PCB designer so I can finalize the case. Yes it’s going to be made by the same manufacturer that made the KIRA60s, EXS and other prototypes.

My bad with the manu, I wasn't sure how else to point out the maker of the board. I'm happy to see these great designs move closer to GB!

Yes I can make a matching numpad, I’ll ask the vendor if he wants to offer that.

Curious how you got hold of this, from down under perhaps? The name has changed a few times, at the moment I call that design the Namo.

Still have to find a suitable PCB for the compact 1800, but here's my other design for a 60%, The KIRA60 FE. These photos were taken from the factory, and hopefully I will receive the board tomorrow or the next day.
