[GB] Duck Jetfire Kustom Keyboard - GB Closed - All Shipped!

[boo]

paid!

[bit-shifter]

Paid up, cheers Elton.

Could I add a further request for a silver top, black base render?

I'm currently in for silver-silver (for 9009), but may have selected a black base if a render were available.

Why is the order form still open if max orders (and beyond) have reached? Are all new orders send directly to nirvana or are they waiting to fill canceled slots?

Probably because he's had other things to do over closing it, or giving people a tiny chance considering dropouts and more.

He posted on the previous page that there were a bunch of drop outs and so he reopened the form to get some more standby slots since it hasn't been invoiced/paid yet.

Paid! This is my first custom kit. Hopefully this will be my end game keeb...

Paid, looking to adjust the stainless steel plate to aluminum. Do you guys know if there's any differences between those ?

some say that stainless steel has a harsher bottomout

There is a difference in feel. Unfortunately the Koreans are all making their plates and PCB's thicker than OTD did so there is not as much difference but aluminum is more forgiving to prolonged typing. Stainless is a firm, hard service and results in a likewise surface for the switches. IMO I would use clicky switches on stainless plates.

I didn't get an invoice?

[Shoah]

I didn't get an invoice?

You can see in the spreadsheet that not everyone has been invoiced yet. You seem to be one of them

[q1w2e3r4t5z]

Ah, currently on mobile so I didn't see the Spreadsheet. Thanks

[eyedrop]

For aluminum plate, which switches do you guys suggest?

[avid]

For aluminum plate, which switches do you guys suggest?

Normal recommendation is;
-SS: linears
-Alu: tactile, clicky.

And paid, who needs a wallet anyway?

Does anyone know deadline for order changes? Still confused with the color of cases, currently both black, haven't decided yet to keep it or to change to half black, half silver.

Usually he will say when you can't make any further changes. That's when he submits the order to Duck.

PAID!!!

Is there any estimated ship time?

[ihalatch]

I'm still not decided on the colour. Any suggestions if I want to use GMK 9009 - black or silver top?

Duck boards are hard to gauge -- some are, some aren't. Some holtites are also different sizes than others.

paid .................

[Aperture_Sci]

If someone wants to sell their spot, or if any invoices go unpaid I would like to get a spot.

[DillonHightower]

I sent an email with an order change. Once changed Ill pay up.
 thanks!

Paid. Elton, can you please change the colours to silver top and black bottom? Also for the extra plate+pcb combo, I'd like to get an aluminium plate instead of SST? Thanks.

No worries. It's all good now. Sorry.

[ihalatch]

It'll be great to see a render of the Jetfire with GMK 9009.

[DillonHightower]

paid up! now the wait begins.

[AlexG]

Anyone know what turnaround is expected to be?

Lightsaver V3 was about 5 months I think

nice! Looking great.

[jackedhardwarejunkie]

So stoked!!

[DillonHightower]

@elton5354 I made payment a few days ago, but form is not updated yet.  I just want to make sure everything went through ok

[Petch]

Good news! SA on 11 degrees is actually not that terrible!

Show Image

Bad news! With SA caps (Cherry is fine) the bottom row, especially the space bar, scratch on the inside of the bezel. It appears there is not enough clearance, might wanna inform Duck on that and keep a bit more distance in future designs. I'll probably have to swap back to GMK tonight :( Anyone else with the same problem or any ideas for solution? I might instead also just use the GMK Oblivion white spacebar, the modifiers are okay. RIP beautiful spacebar thock.

Will this be an issue with the Jetfire too?

Turns out it was just me being dumb. All I had to do was open it up again, loosen the screws of the plate and move it a bit further up as I had plenty of clearance at the top row.

That's great to hear! Despite having done exactly the same myself in the past, I didn't think to question you on it

[Petch]

Paid, RIP my bank at this time of year 

Also sent email to duck regarding swapping to black bottom/silver top... those instagram pictures looked nice

[jackedhardwarejunkie]

I can't wait. Never thought I would love a 1800 so much

[Petch]

It does look great, I'm just hoping the underglow diodes will be more evenly spread than they were in Lightsaver V3

[DillonHightower]

I am beginning to worry deadline is almost here I made payment and has not been updated on the main form. Anyone else in this situation? I’ll be pretty sad if something comes up and I miss out due to issues with processing that I’ve been asking about for over a week.
