Is the internal brass weight still off center like in one of the IC thread photos?

It looks like that has to be a fairly slim battery, especially if going with tray mount. Is that photo the end product, or are there plans to make a recess in the battery compartment or raise the standoffs for tray mount in height a bit?
Thanks for the indepth and thorough answers! It's very much appreciated! I'm definitely considering buying one!Would you consider selling the Bluetooth PCB on its own?
I just ordered Yok Red Pandas for my red G60 with a red plate. https://novelkeys.xyz/collections/frontpage/products/yok-red-pandasHopefully Red Cadet gets made.

No idea what i'm gonna do for the board yet, lol. I got the WKL NCR grey w/ dark bottom.Keyset choices: OG dolch, kekkon dolch, 9009 r1, muted, wob, honeywellI think 9009 would look pretty cool with the warm tone of the NCR ano.

Would you be able to post a couple of photos showing SA keycaps mounted in the case using the top-mount option?It would be really helpful to know if the bottom of the keycaps are visible, as i want my next case to have the caps sit quite low in the caseSent from my Pixel XL using Tapatalk

( I think it would the same for SA ) Edit. A few more here with cherry profile on top mount of the new prototype (Attachment Link) (Attachment Link)

I will talk to Scott and see. WIll keep updating.
G60 + CF Plate +Rubber Gasket + Holy Panda: Typing test!Not a valid vimeo URL
Folks, I've been exchanging comments with oldcat and scottwei, and it seems like if we beg hard enough and make enough noise, Scott MIGHT include gaskets that could be used for the G60.So, please +1 for gasket inclusion!

My question is: do you really like metal cases? In the cold days of the winter, there's nothing that irritates me as much as a cold keyboard. This would be an insta buy for me, if it was made of solid and cheap plastic. Plastic even sounds better.
Update: Scott said in discord that he will add a gasket kit for G60 buyers. Great news, and have fun! (Attachment Link) (Attachment Link)

In reference to the gasket, normally gaskets are custom cut to shape and flat. Not to be overly critical but just adding a round piece of rubber in the kit doesn't add much value. Rubber gaskets can be laser cut but tend to be expensive.

G60 was not initially designed to be a Gasket mount board, but top/tray dual mount. It's just people are requesting that in discord and Scott experimented and found pretty good results Consider it a freebie bonus

Does it deaden the sound or something?
Do you have any pictures of the no blocker version?
Hey Scott, any chance I can cancel my order that I paid for? Turns out I need the funds more than I thought..
