You solder the RGB LEDs directly under the same LED holes for Cherry switches.

I tried doing that but it turns off the LEDs from the top. The multi colored leds are only displaying red. How does that work? Do I have to give up backlighting on the top to have multicolored at the bottom?

Got it!

posted too soon

@Sprit : Any ETA before new orders will be accepted ?

Update: fixed in most recent version of the firmware (ps2avrU_firmware_V1.7_150215.zip). Thanks @showjean, the author of ps2avru for the super quick response and fix!

-- old post about issue in Mac OS X --
I'm getting some issues on Mac OSX (tested on yosemite hackintosh, mavericks hackintosh, yosemite macbookpro. works on windows 7 and in bios). It was working fine until a few days ago, when it started to skip keys. Replugging fixed it. However yesterday, even that fix stopped working. Keypresses are now out of order, repeated incorrectly (eg. typig "hello" quickly sometimes -> "ehlo"), or plainly skipped whenever I type faster than ~20 wpm.

I've tried swapping usb cables, adding a powered usb hub, changing computers, resetting keymap, flashing both GKP and NKRO firmwares.

Anyone else seeing these problems? Any ideas on how to fix this, short of porting over tmk? Not really happy considering this is my first custom keyboard and I'm speed limited to 20wpm

Right. I'm a victim of the other group buy. Paid over a year, and I have yet to receive my stuff.

Don't get caught by the pic. You might end up throwing money to receive nothing in return.

Regardless of whether this ever gets resolved I'd still never recommend buying from him just because of how poorly this one has been run. There are plenty of places to get PCB's and cases, no need to be buying from people who can't follow through on their word.

Out of curiosity, do you know a place that sells 100% or more PCBs? I have not been able to find anything above a 80% :/

I think you should open a thread also on Deskthority, a lot of users over there are not active on GH. And I'm sure a few will be interested in this.

Polycarb plate, this sounds interesting, it's also 5T like the acrylic one?

Thanks! I will try make a time to renew my post on DeskThority.

Polycarboante Plates feel harder, more solid to Acrylic with same thickness, as we experience in our daily life with bottles, cups, plastic boxes.
CNC machined Polycarb plates had failed MOQ in the GB last year, but for 60% only this time. MOQ = 20

chalks · « **Reply #375 on:** Sun, 26 April 2015, 13:28:13 »

Sorry if this seems like a silly question. Is this just a preorder for pcb and plate? I ask because the order form also mentions cases, switches, springs, stabilizers etc. Would it be possible to order those at the same time?

And if it does include cases, how much do they cost? Unlike all the other items on the form there's no dollar amount for them.

Thanks

Some more questions.

1. What sort of case is shown in the photos tagged rpeterclark? It has a thinner bezel than cases in the other photos?

2. What switches and springs are needed to get close to a Topre switch feel? I realise it won't be exactly the same as the mechanisms of Cherry MX and Topre are completely different.

rpeterclark's case looks like an aluminum Tex without the front lip. Massdrop sold them in blue, black, and silver.

1. TEX silver looks impressive in rpeterclark's build.

2. Topre feel may get with : my 55g - 60g possibly. I have HHKB original, HHKB pro, Pro2, sold Type S. As you say they are very different from Cherry MX.
I've tried my MX springs be cushiony at bottom out. I love the feels of Topre - Ninja's Walking.
