Solenoid support? I thought I was up on most of the esoteric mods going on these days, but I can't fathom what a solenoid would be used for on a keyboard... Can somebody fill me in?

This keyboard would be perfect with the KAM Playground keycaps

I'll buy your entire stock.

Hopefully I can get the F row situation sorted out as I am considering acquiring Space Cadet.

i just had a stupid idea but would the case be able to fit a modified PC-122/M122? if so i may need one

EXOgreen · « **Reply #172 on:** Mon, 09 November 2020, 11:59:08 »

This is just my opinion, but I would much prefer it if the board had two more blockers instead of the permanently removed windows keys. I do use the windows key quite a bit, and the board already has blockers for the arrow keys portion of the board. I don't know how this affects the current board design or manufacturing/assembly process but thought I would ask for it just to give more options.

Is there life to this project? This is amazing!

TheSeaRabbit · « **Reply #174 on:** Thu, 12 November 2020, 23:22:30 »

Honestly love this. I just can't imagine what I'd fill that very top row with haha.

Fonlon · « **Reply #175 on:** Fri, 13 November 2020, 17:27:57 »

The mind boggles at all the f row options. Love it.

Needs four encoder options and two OLED placements....only then will I throw my cash vigorously at you.

This is legit cool. I want one.

Hblcats · « **Reply #183 on:** Fri, 27 November 2020, 16:09:59 »

Any chance of Alps support? If you're doing solenoid, then it would only be a whole pcb(s) and plate(s) redesign

theatomicoption · « **Reply #184 on:** Mon, 07 December 2020, 14:48:38 »

Yes!

I'm new to mechs, but registered a geekhack account specifically because I want this.

JoeyWerkz · « **Reply #185 on:** Thu, 17 December 2020, 11:28:24 »

This is a beautiful big boy! I know that this is a stretch... but would this be available with a hot-swap PCB?
Would love to have that as an option (with brass, I love brass)!

TPSM_00 · « **Reply #186 on:** Fri, 18 December 2020, 06:16:02 »

This board is so cool and I want it to become a reality, just hope I can find a keyset that works with it

I_V_I · « **Reply #187 on:** Sat, 19 December 2020, 06:58:41 »

Having my eyes on this for some time now. And after going through some of the newer designs I just wanted to tell you my appreciation for not doing another 65% keyboard. Also, I really like the innovative design. Hope this will happen and hope ill be able to get my hands on one.

This is a good first post.
You're going places.

halodub · « **Reply #189 on:** Sun, 20 December 2020, 03:49:30 »

pretty please make this. i was looking at the zenith and an external keypad or something for more F keys, but this is literally a dream come true.

stormer_kbds · « **Reply #190 on:** Tue, 22 December 2020, 11:55:08 »

This would be great BUT I need windows key and a 2U zero... can't buy it if I don't have those options. Only other thing I can find is an Austin and I missed R2 recently. Obi Won Keyboard.. you are my only hope.

this is a TKL board, were do you want your 2U zero? (The unsaver is the TKL version of the 122 keys terminal model F keyboard, IBM called it a space-saver but in modern day it is considered a behemoth

Donosir · « **Reply #194 on:** Wed, 30 December 2020, 15:58:52 »

Interested but...

Would like some renders with keycaps in and a little more effort shown in getting some more details out so we know the project isn't dead.

Guys I am sorry to have to say it but I think you are all whipping a dead horse here. The thread-starter has not posted since May 2020 and although like you all I really want this board to come alive, sadly until the main man posts to update us I would ask that you all refrain from posting until he does.

Hi.

It is not dead, very much alive. Ai and myself have been busy with some other things but things are progressing.

That is without doubt the best 1st forum post of 2021 that I have read. That baby needs to see the light of day and 2021 is the year it was designed for. I could hug you Pwner but laws forbid it so accept this air punch 'm'
