You decide your plate we make it :)

Do you have the supported layouts that your standard plate supports?

Yes ofcuse. Our standard is 60 / 65 but you can order universal plate, 60 support 7u space / iso ender / arrow etc...

Does your standard 60 plate only support ANSI layout or it's a universal plate? If so what kind of layouts does it support?
If I order a 60 plate only supporting a certain fixed layout, does it account in to MOQ of all 60 plates?

If I were to pick one type of switch to go best with titanium, would the optimal type be linear, clicky, or tactile?

Can you elaborate on what your standard 65% plate is?  Will it fit a Tada68, or is that something I would need to provide files for?

How would you estimate the cost for a 96 key plate?  Is it just the total cut path length?  Also, does anyone know where I can find the hole layout for a Melody96?  :)

Ah... you may misunderstand :D. We will make a plate which you prefer. If you like fixed layout so send us your layout (or we will draw following your detail).

Our MOQ count on pieces. If there are 20 Numad plate so we will count it as 20 pieces and we reach first MOQ :).

Update 1 (12th Dec, 2018): 8 pieces have been fill.

In my opinion, i will use Linear and Tactile with DSA Profile.
If you prefer "sound" you should pick Clicky + Brass + SA Profile. Best annoying at all  :p

How would you estimate the cost for a 96 key plate?  Is it just the total cut path length?  Also, does anyone know where I can find the hole layout for a Melody96?  :)

For 96 and 1.5mm thickness, the cost is as same as TKL $95.

We can draw Melody96 for (we can borrow it for measuring :D)

Can you elaborate on what your standard 65% plate is?  Will it fit a Tada68, or is that something I would need to provide files for?

Depend on which case do you use, we will make a plate for you such as: Dolphin Linger :). You just fill a form then we will contact to identify which you like.

Will you be able to make a CA66 plate? The file is in here: https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1ayHWOCF4nN07iZgkdtTF0jnV8DYwZcH3

Ofcuse we can, Fill a form then we will contact you with a CAD CA66 Plate files.

How/when do I send you my CAD file? Should I email it to you as soon as I fill out the GB form, or should I wait for you to email me first?

In the form, you can leave your link in table of decribe more about your plate.Fill out the GB form first :).

Hi, is it possible to request:
1.) Polished Finish
2.) 3mm plate, but with 1.5mm on the switch cutouts for the switch to clip on
3.) Custom key layout but standard 60% size using KLE only (I don't know how to CAD)

TIA!

Hmm... I use almost always Cherry profile. The type of switch this works best with determines what shape I get. If I were to use this for Silent Blacks, I would get it for my Jane. If I were to use Holy Pandas or Novelias, I would get the 910 layout.

In next 3 months, we don't have plan to run another round.

Next our product is 65 with built in bluetooth (in QA Progress) and Titnium Case (in very end complete) so if you miss this time you still join when we run Titanium Case :).

Do you by chance have a winkeyless b.87 top plate CAD file handy or can you get one? I've got some of the files that Hojin posted a while back, but my solidworks doesn't agree with .dwg files and support hasn't been able to help me yet :/ I'd just do it from scratch, but I'm out of town for an extended business trip so I cant take measurements either.

http://blog.winkeyless.kr/208

I'm looking for layer 2t on the b.87 with a stepped caps lock and a split right shift so I can run a 1.75u and a 1u. I'm going to use a standard ANSI bottom row on it as well and would ideally use just the 1.25

I've got an old plate that has cracks in the acrylic and I think a Ti plate would look pretty stellar as a replacement, if you can help me out I'll almost certainly buy one.

Anyways, thanks
Tom

I am planning on ordering 3 or 4 plates with different layouts.  Would I have to fill out the form separately for each layout?

Also, if I pay for a custom logo, do you still stamp yours on the plate?

I have helped you to draw it b87 2t. checked attachment :).

It looks pretty good but maybe I'm seeing things. It looks like the F row is spaced too high up, as if it's got the same spacing as a filco when it's actually .25u vertical separation. My quick math is telling me it should be about 23.8125 mm center to center from the number row to the F-row, can you confirm that your drawing is measuring that?

Do you by chance have a winkeyless b.87 top plate CAD file handy or can you get one? I've got some of the files that Hojin posted a while back, but my solidworks doesn't agree with .dwg files and support hasn't been able to help me yet :/ I'd just do it from scratch, but I'm out of town for an extended business trip so I cant take measurements either.

http://blog.winkeyless.kr/208

I'm looking for layer 2t on the b.87 with a stepped caps lock and a split right shift so I can run a 1.75u and a 1u. I'm going to use a standard ANSI bottom row on it as well and would ideally use just the 1.25

I've got an old plate that has cracks in the acrylic and I think a Ti plate would look pretty stellar as a replacement, if you can help me out I'll almost certainly buy one.

Anyways, thanks
Tom

Solidworks is familiar to me, just send me sldprt.

You can fill out a form or send me via email: tamdht@gmail.com

I'd like to, but since the files were posted on winkeyless' site as DWG and I'm unable to open them, I'm unable to convert it to a sldprt.

I'll see if I can dl a program to edit it as a 2d file in the mean time.

I pick a measure from a link you leaved here. Im sure that a space between Num and F are 0.25 u.

Well sweet deal then, I'll fill out the order form in a day or two when I get back home. I think that with a heat anodize fade will look stellar.

Thanks a ton!

Would it be possible to create a bent TKL case with these? Do you have the equipment needed for the bending? Something like this:

Just submitted the form! I think I missed a detail on my submission. The .dxf is a template for what I want but I wrote exactly what UI wanted. 

Looking forward to this!  ^-^

Great! Would you be able to help design the plate? I'm also not sure which PCB I should get for this.

First of all you need to pick which pcb yoh will use or which layout you prefer at least. I will design your plate depend on your choices.

Thicker plate is expensive.

There are a includes cost:
60% or 65% and 1.5mm: $65
2mm: $115
2.5mm: $125
3mm: $135
3.5mm: $145
4mm: $155
4.5mm: $175
5mm: $195

Hope this help you much.

Just remember that cherry switches won't click into a plate over 1.5mm thick. "Thicker" plate designs (5mm) have been milled to depth where the switches click in.

Just remember that cherry switches won't click into a plate over 1.5mm thick. "Thicker" plate designs (5mm) have been milled to depth where the switches click in.

And it's important that they clip in if you have a tray mounted board.  When they don't clip in, the plate can/will slide down the switches and there's not much you can do about it other than add some supports in between the plate and PCB that are exactly the right thickness.
