As always, please only nominate boards that have been posted elsewhere on the forum within the calendar month. Please post a quality picture of said board, and a link to where it was originally posted. This thread will be open for approximately two weeks. Happy hunting!

Wow, I think a lot of us say this but - it's a hard choice this month!

I gotta say +1 for Hyper7 just because of the massive work that went to it given it's a multiple person undertaking.  :eek:

Nontheless emenelopee's project is just as impressive and the final product is just amazingly executed! :thumb:

And that KIRA60. Nice, really really nice. :cool:

Actually, that’s a different project... more on Saturday!!


Thanks everyone for the nomination - but I couldn’t have built the board without the rest of the H7 team so massive props to them as well. I’m hoping someone at the meet can do some better pics than I am capable of!!

There has been considerable interest in the PCBs as well so there may be an IC for a small non-profit run of a revised PCB...

Hyper7 gets my vote. +1 Custom PCB with daughterboard plus a near mythical keyset with legendary status!

EVE is a damn close second - fantastic execution, ortho and a lefty numpad cluster to boot!
