Hello, Emil here.
Today I'm here to gauge interest on this keyboard I designed, with the help of Ai03 and BlindAssassin111.
I call it the Deltablade! I thought of an edged design for this one, in a 660 layout. (Same as Leopold's FC660M/C)
Picture of the compatibility:
The design is a Top Mount style, and the typing angle is 7 degrees.
Two of the prototypes will be made by Keyboard Streamers AlessioKb, and Alexotos.
Be sure to tune in to see the builds!
There will be three colorways:
Silver Top/Weight and Teal Bottom/Plate
Black Top/Weight and Silver Bottom/Plate
E-White Top/Weight and Black Bottom/Plate
The teal is matched to VBV, a popular teal in sets like Hyperfuse, and Delta.
We are planning to get the teal even closer, because it's not quite there yet.
Here are some photos of the prototypes made so far:
Pricing has now been determined!
Deltablade kit - $480 - Price has been modified, removing the carrying case it originally comes with.
Extras:
Aluminum Plate - $37
