so....do you have any polycarbon cases available for this as well? or right now the acryl is the only choice...
Because from what I heard, Acryl cases are kinda fragile and easy to break...and I do plan to travel with this keyboard very often...

I have been working on Polycarbon quiet a long time for my designs. 
The Big Problem with P-Carbon is too much cost for machining, almost same as Metals
But As I said in my IC,  I will do some PC too.

Looking forward to hear more about the p-carbon cases! if a GB starts I'll be the first one to check it out!

[sprit]

Model 1  PolyAcryl = PolyCarbon in Shape.  I mean the Same Design!

But Colored PolyCarbons are Too Expensive to buy under the MOQ.

We Will see!

Dear sprit, many posts from you after 2 days but still no pictures of the PCBs!!! Pictures of v0.1, v0.2... version A.87W does it even exist?
You don't have them, right? Are they not out of the factory yet? Why don't you just say so?
110% board, where's the 110% picture?
You keep spamming links and lambos, be so kind to spam some real pics. Thank you.
Discussions about cases and plates in the PCB thread, but not about the PCBs....

This is how a pcb groupbuy should look like at least when it's not produced yet, it's only natural:

They're hardly stock photos if they're photos of the actual product, admittedly they might not be the latest revision but you're making the OP out to be a scam artist. He hasn't even asked for payments yet and you're jumping all over him like a rabid dog.

[Jmneuv]

Again, read the thread.. it's simple really and not that long.

This GB is about some "special edition pcb's", i asked sprit whether he was already in possession of the items which he said he was - so naturally i ask him for a picture. That's it. You think that's stretching it? Man, you are some obedient customers.
So it's absurd to ask for an up to date pic for a multiple-thousand dollar GB? i'm baffled.

Btw, winkeyless.kr isn't his site.

p.s: that's why i put stock photos in quotes, he just took some random pics from winkeyless.

[bueller]

I've read the thread, condescend more.

Btw, winkeyless.kr isn't his site.

Do you have anything to back that up? I'd be more inclined to believe OP than some keyboard warrior with an axe to grind.

[Jmneuv]

I mean "read the relevant threads", sorry about that. It's right there in the IC:

-  Cutting-Edge Technology Design and QC  by THE CREATOR  of A.87 and MX-mini,   The FATHER of Korean Custom PCBs.

-  He is the Famous Independent PCB Designer, Mr. BeastMask  From Korea since 2005.

-  The Creator himself developed the top-of-the-line :  A.87  A.87 ps2avr,   MX-mini W,  60% Face W,    A.87 W  TKL

-  ANSI + ISO in one PCB. (concept design by sprit  in GH  for ISO users)
-  USB and PS2 Auto-detect.  3rd generation.  Open Source based.

-  Designer's Page :  http://winkeyless.kr/71

No "I" in there, i'm just reading.. not claiming anything.

(p.s: don't go all victim with "condescending" on me, you are the one dropping the heavy words)

[sprit]

   Gentleman!

IF anyone curious about these PCBs , I'd like say

1.  Read the Each IC links carefully  for Yourself = It's Confusing but one thing might be clear,  Very New PCBs ...

2.  the One Final sample PCB is at designer's hand, the other is in the factory now, still adding some new mods including firmwares, before the Production start.   http://winkeyless.kr/31   http://winkeyless.kr/76

3.  You can refer the Designer's Page, If there is anything further to find out.   http://winkeyless.kr/67    http://winkeyless.kr/66         

4. If there some questions remains,  you can wait till 1st Production and pics next week.

Why Not now?  = We will get Some Surprises, for me and for some of us.

Thanks My Fellow GH Guys!   I love You so Much!

You 100% Right!   I am Hiding Something!! 

 There was same Response in KBDmania.

I have been doing the Patents and  Design registration jobs in Korea, and in USA.
And I wish donate quite a parts of them to GH. 
So that's why ... I am hiding the Last Pics of PCBs,  Now I am just doing the Final Touch.
Sorry for some inconveniences!         

Very old prototype Pic.

Thanks for paying attention to this matter, sprit. I just don't understand why you're playing hard to catch so much.. you could have just put it in the OP.

Surprises i want from my girlfriend! In a GB i want to know what i will be paying in advance for.

Edit: As usual your links reveal nothing new, it's just a smokescreen.

Hope you understand that you're asked specific questions, as gb organizer you're asking a lot of trust from the community.
Also it's not only you doing us a favor, 1st: you probably make some money from this and 2nd: through us your project will come to life and spread to kb fans.. so i think it's kinda mutual.

I just hope you will deliver pics/material before you start collecting money.

No problem !  I Love Jmneuv !! 

I Read Your Passion in Your Personal Messages!!   I want clear all the Obstacles away in our custom kbd Life. 
It have been my goal in kbd hobby for a long time.  That's why I wrote : Alps PCBs will come soon.

You have some misunderstandings  on my Project,  My Jmneuv   

1.  We are waiting the MOQ now.

2.  I want collect money as late as possible!   =   to get move from  PCB v1.2 to v1.3 in between.

3.  I don't need any Investment from the outer world. 

4.  You'd better wait the 2nd wave of GB.

3.  I don't need any Investment from the outer world.

Does that mean production before collecting?

There's no room for misunderstanding: pics or it didn't happen.

No one is forcing you to buy anything. As sprit said above, maybe you just want to sit this one out, eh? Otherwise, let's cool it with the constant badgering the OP for pics, etc., okay?

keep your pants on, brother. when its time to pay and there is no pics or you are not satisfied with anything, then just don't buy it. get a KMAC or something, those have tons of pics for your pleasure before paying.

[kektr0city]

So ummm, my entry in that googledoc got deleted.  I put a new one in, but peoples might wana make sure they're still on the list.

That goes without saying, would prefer to have that cleared up before that time comes, is all brother.

[sprit]

Btw, winkeyless.kr isn't his site.

p.s: that's why i put stock photos in quotes, he just took some random pics from winkeyless.

Hum....  It's The designer Mr.BeastMask's site and  He is my Friend. As I put on IC 

http://www1.kbdmania.net/xe/market_info/7508028  Its U version (ANSI Only)

I asked him the supporting holes in June, July, Sept, Oct, and it's name should be 괴수-sprit Holes. 

   
Everybody knows that in KBDmania.   
Oct.18, We met up at my home and having dinner and made Agreement to provide ANSI+ISO New version with the Latest Firmware and some major mods, for GH. 
I announced this in Korea. http://www1.kbdmania.net/xe/photo/7577370

Anyway I did advised you, My Friend ; Read IC carefully.
This is quite a messy GB,  but I wish we get some good things in the messy mud. Actually We want a Big One! 
The IC Started on Oct.19,    This Topic Started on Nov.06.   Is This a slow, lazy move?
I'm usually a messy man. 
Let's Smile !      Cheers!  Cheers!  GH!

but ugh...how long more is this gonna take before we can see the actual unit's pic and also metal case's pic 

[sprit]

Dont Worry! kektr0city   Surely I did mistake !   I will look into the backups!   =  (added  :  I got email notice whenever the file changed, and I looked into History logs, no problem with Your entry now. Surely I might be the man who did deletion!

This is a GB  Reservation for MOQ check.  To Set the Production Schedule with the Factories.

Making a PCB needs a good Quantity, ie  MOQ.
for a certern Size of Raw PCB plate... all Filming, Alignment, Etching, Cleaning, Drilling,  Coloring, Soldering set ups, Auto SMD soldering, cleaning....Silk screen printing....  Boot Loader, Firmware load, .Keymap load ..  etc. etc.

I have confidence in sprit, one thing I would suggest is maybe work with some other member who's native language is Engligh to express the official stuff of the GB better, such as a proper Google Form, structured and clutter-free OP.

You have to understand that like you many other members are not native English speakers and when your broken English is read by such members, things can sound quite different, not trying to be rude, but just giving a suggestion.

And people, we need more 75% and full-size PCB orders!

[elllit]

*scratches head* I still am new to all this... but what's a 110%?

If I learned correctly (from reading a lot of stuff here at GH) 60% is a keyboard without F-Keys and everything 'right of the return key' (num pad, arrows, and so on). Add some more keys to get to 70%, 75% and so on and you will eventually reach 100%.

So 110% adds what keys?

Anyways, I'm in for a 60%.
