Please have a HHKB 

What durometer value will the tadpoles be? And just to confirm they're genuine from Geon?

[daviddgm]

Based on the IC Form responses we will make the GB and HHKB option will be available.

The Prototype will be made on the next week to test tadpole/rubber shock hardness options and others checkings.

[daviddgm]

Yes, a hole of 3x3x80 mm to fill with polycarbonate for RGB underglow light.

The previous lm60 was fine. I particularly found the quality of the ano and sound to be good for the price. For your next iteration of the lm60 (if you decide to do more wkl or hhkbs) please slightly clean up the gaps that were present on the board. I understand this board is suppose to house many common 60 percent pcbs and priced relatively low but I found there to be VERY slight gaps on the wkl blockers, the side of the board, as well the top above r4. I don't know if this was the plate not positioning well. Otherwise I liked the overall design and finish and excited for this project.

Thank you for the feedback. Yesterday when I was fininshing the design of V2 plate I found the little compability issue with V1 and the plate (not our design) that caused 0.5mm gap difference.

Interested! Hope Red will come back. Also your storefront has some issues with not being able to check out the current stock to my country

[daviddgm]

For this next LM60 V2 we will add more shipping options, like forwarder in Europe. Where are you from?

I'm in the Philippines. There's a few of us here who would like to get some of the V1s too. Aliexpress wont ship to here. Would it be viable for you to set up a shopee/xiapi storefront?
