Hi Everyone,

We have been working on Type65 for months and it's time to show it to you guys!

Epomaker Type 65 DIY Kit is a 65% multi-functional wired keyboard from a designed idea by Facts Eliminator. The barebones kit is designed with different features of Bridge-Gasket Mount, QMK/VIA Programmable, Hot-swappable with South-oriented Switches, PC Plate & Aluminum Case, Screw-in Stabilizers!

We have applied a new gasket type into this board - bridge gasket. This kind of gasket can add more bouncing feel to typing.
As to the badge on the right, it can be customized and engraved by different pattern. We may put on another poll to choose the patterns in the future, or not (if we do not receive enough responses in the IC form).
The PCB does not have LEDs so that won't be backlights. We've been thinking a lot on if we should add LEDs to the PCB or not. The final conclusion is that we should skip backlights for this keyboard to keep the it neat and bug-less.
Apart from the white-purple color scheme, there will also be black-orange, navy-grey and pink to suit different customized keycap sets.

If you have any other thoughts on this keyboard, feel free to fill our IC form!
