Hi everyone, After a while study, I also want to start custom keyboard design: p
So, below is my first design.
Road Map:
-
Design complete: (in May) - done
-
Order Prototype: Done ( 19/5/2018)
-
Check prototype, drawing, production speed. - Done (21/6/2018)
- Open Group Buy.
Feel free to ask me anything.

Hi everyone,
I have read all the comments.
I think such a design would be very optimized production process. And I corrected the ratio to the most reasonable. You can say that it resembles Duck, but I do not recognize it as clone.
If I want to clone, why do not I silently produce and sell on the market.
However, I decided not to use the design again.
And instead of this design.
I just finished it today, I have reduced the height down front. And the overall keyboard will tilt 8 degrees.
To make things legit, I would count the time from the order of prototype until the anodizing was complete and I was holding on.
So you can evaluate the quality / production time.
And then I calculated the production time for GB.
Price will be below $ 230 (including: Case / Plate / PCB soldered)

UPDATE:
Here we go
It looks really great, far beyond my expectations.
But there are a few bugs I will need to fix.
Today is June 20. So after ~ 30 days. This is what we will get.
Hopefully 660 Owl's PCB will be OK, I can not wait any longer.

UPDATE:
PCB has finished, I will test a few points before opening GB.
