[GB][CLOSED] LeandreN Round 4, 60% kits, HHKB and winkeyless plates

[LeandreN]

LeandreN, can you show the numbers of PCB orders in the chart?
We'll get an idea about the MOQ.

Added!

[ideus]

What colors will be available for the happy plate?

[LeandreN]

What colors will be available for the happy plate?

The orders are open.

I think we have 4 or 5 colours available. The best is to check the ordering form, as I can't remember.

Lovely.

I don't dare to jinx, but what if the unthinkable happens?
If we don't meet the MOQ with one PCB color, will you automatically shift to the other color?

I will update here in that case. I would really like to hit MOQ on both. I also have to put my own order in at the end

Black, blue, orange, red and silver.

Alright then.

[TalkingTree]

I would really like to hit MOQ on both.

Indeed, especially since there's the logo on the silkscreen.

I also have to put my own order in at the end

Sounds like a massive order.

[ideus]

Ordered.

[Kalp1]

4x 2u stabilisers are included in each stabiliser package.

Great !

[heedpantsnow]

Are the cf plates +35 or +45?  The form says 30+35=75. It's possible that I'm an idiot or missing something though.

[LeandreN]

The base price of plates are 30. And they are supposed to be +45 to make a total of 75.

I will have to edit the form.

Ok thanks.

these look like they support alps switches but just wanted to double check, do they?

[TalkingTree]

I guess not, 1u cutouts would but Cherry PCB stabilizers' wouldn't.

The GON PCB definitely does not support ALPS as far as I know.

[cmd]

I tried sifting through some of the pages but couldn't come to a conclusion. Are the HHKB plates steel?

-Thanks!

[phosphoric]

is shipping $7-35 based on where i am in us or is it $35? not sure how the range is calculated, and living in the continental united states has spoiled me in terms of shipping costs.

[kaeeeede]

I don't know if my order submitted or not. I hit submit or whatever it is at the very end but my internet likes to cut in and out and after that it just gave me a blank page. I guess we'll see in a little bit. Just a simple order for black HHKB, black PCB, and a stab.

[endeavour90]

Are there any recommendations for keyboard case to match with orange plate?

[spanyam]

Are there any recommendations for keyboard case to match with orange plate?

You could take a look at Ziptyte's cases. Just a few posts above, LeandreN said he's working with Ziptyte and can get a colored plastic case for $45 shipped to CONUS.

EDIT: How're we doing on MOQ after one day, LeandreN?

[captsis]

Ordered!

Got your order

Around 15$ to the states for one kit.

Only aluminium

[Atredl]

Ordered! Black PCB for an all black everything build.

[Diokhan]

ordered orange hhkb plate + orange pcb

[JaccoW]

Put in my order. One of each color PCB!

Would these work with GONs bluetooth option?

Yes, but they are not included in this GB.

I have a question, I will be using your parts for my first keyboard build.
What else should I need?

Got the following in the mail/groupbuy etc:
- PCB & plate & stabs from this buy
- Switches
- switch leds

Can I add the switches just like that to the pcb?
Or will I need some extra parts?

Case and keycaps AFAIK diodes/resistors are presoldered but you should check

They do come presoldered so you're good. The PCB is like a Poker so it'll fit any standard 60% case, depending on your layout keycaps shouldn't be an issue.

Will I be needing a controller (teensy?) or is that included as well?

Controller is also presoldered, mb

Thank you for the help!
Now off looking for a soldering station

[GoatMaster]

Ordered. Thank you for this GB!

[Xiro7]

Ordered. I went with Orange PCB + carbon fiber plate. I have some extra Zealios switches to put on this thing.

Do you all have recommendations for a nice 60% aluminum case I could pick up for this thing? I was thinking something in silver or orange.

[Diokhan]

the massdrop case wouldn't look nice with the hhkb plate right?
Corners would look weird

I was looking at the Tex 60% aluminum cases: https://mechanicalkeyboards.com/shop/index.php?l=product_detail&p=629

I have a blue one for my Danger Zone set and it looks really nice. It is pretty much a flat bottom case, so really uncomfortable to type with unless you have a good wrist rest.

I like having an angled case

[SJHL]

The HHKB plates are : covered 1.5u - 1u - 1.5u - 7u - 1.5u - 1u - covered 1.5u
1.75u + 1u or 2.75u shift on the right side.
ANSI only.
Covered means you can't put a switch there.

I think you meant 1u - 1.5u - 7u - 1.5u - 1u for HHKB plates?

Just want to make sure that I'm reading it right..

Ordered orange pcb and orange plate. Anyone know how can I get orange aluminium case that will match this pcb and plates?

[LeandreN]

The TEX aluminium case in orange will fit the plate pretty good.

Tex aluminum cases can come with feet to angle it, so that won't be a concern.
