[IC] Sleepy60 - 60% | Top/Burger Mount | HHKB | PC
« on: Thu, 17 September 2020, 15:34:10 »
Sup folks!

IC Form: https://forms.gle/56vQxMKTBdKbie22A

I'm bringing the Sleepy60 to IC today and with it I bring renders along with prototype pictures and an obligatory sound test!
I have been working on this board for the past few months now, and with a lot of positive feedback from friends/discord server members, I have decided to take it further into a mini GB.
The design was based on the style of cartoon-style pillows. I wanted something curvy whilst staying fairly minimalist, and I feel I have succeeded with this!

Features:
- 60% Tsangan HHKB layout
- 5° typing angle
- Seamless top
- Same mounting as Brutal60 (Top/Burger using O-rings)
- Internally mounted brass weight (Total weight when built ~1.1kg)
- Compatible with standard 60% PCBs - Layouts

I will be looking to bring this to GB in the next few months, with around 25 quantity (this board will only ever be ran once).

Pricing will be around $350-400 per board including international shipping, with extra plates available. I will aim to get PCBs bought in bulk for the group buy. I will ONLY be running this in HHKB and Polycarb!

I will be launching the GB on my Shopify store (soon to open), and you can join my Discord for updates (Please PM me on Discord/Reddit for questions)!

Such a cute and comfy design! And the classic top mount is really shining here, it sounds crisp and excellent. With a comfy keyset like gmk yuru or comfy pbt and some 150g springs I could just about fall asleep on this zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz

Though I'm not personally into HHKB nor 60% I feel it really suits this board, and I'll be following this to see how it all goes! Good luck with this!

The square weight tossed on kinda throws me off, could we increase the width to maybe a rectangle

I considered WKL for a while, however I felt like HHKB was the best looking for this, hence why I stuck with it.
