Completely crazy. I'm in.
(edit) since we're talking more than $1000 per unit we're in bespoke luxury item territory - could we have plate files, or a dedicated ISO and ANSI plates at least I appreciate the standard PCB support (great future proofing), but your pursuit of perfect sound should also include the switch plate...
hello. Thank you for your attention.
We will review this positively.
I quite like this. Not sure if it 'll be in the budget though
Hello. When looking at a new endeavor, Don't necessarily have to buy it.
I feel very rewarding just for interest.
Thank you for your attention.
Thanks for sharing this project, it is one of the most interesting design-wise TKLs that have seen for a long time. Since the first day, I've been lurking and wondering how it would end up, the first prototypes. They are stunning!
It is very likely that I won't be able to buy one of the units due to its price, but I would love to try/see one someday.
I have some quick questions/suggestions from my side that you may find useful:
- Not sure which type of daughterboard you are planning to use, but would you consider using a Unified USB daughterboard? It is an open-source project and I believe it is aligned with the concept of using well-known electronics, as you are doing with the h88nu.
- Design-wise, I also would say that I would prefer to have the USB port located in a lower position. It will be safer and will be, at least to my eyes, more aesthetically pleasing.
- I've seen your answer about the aluminium middle piece, but would you consider the usage of other materials as optional?
Please continue to pursue your dream board and have some fun while doing it.
GLWIC!
Hello, thank you for the good discussion suggestion. These conversations are very helpful for progress.
1. Let's discuss positively.
2. We tried it, but we thought it was not perfect in terms of design.
3. We are not thinking about changing the material of the middle plate yet. This is our first try and we feel it's important to create what we think is best. You can try and review it later.

hello. Thank you for your attention.
I think $1000~1500 is for one-off keyboard. I suppose any keyboard groupbuy above $1000 just didn't get a reasonable quote from the manu.
Yes, not all keyboards have the same purpose.
We do not know the exact risk or QC scope for the factory.
Therefore, we plan to make all products and proceed with instock. (This method helps to eliminate all problem elements. This means small quantity. Limited budget)
In addition, there were no compromises in favor of design, material and structure processing.
This keyboard is not a universally reasonable keyboard.
