[Resolved] Searching for a 60% PCB, suggestions wanted :-) (Went with Cascade60)

Thats crazy. Ive been on my Tofu60 build that uses the DZ60 and haven't had any issues but it has been less than a year.

GH60 and satan60 is not really around anymore afaik. There's plenty of good 60% projects these days. A few examples: Plain60 (open sourced)/H60/AN-C/instant60, all are solid PCBs. I'd start by looking for 60% PCB's at your local vendors.

I have a project here that's open sourced if you want to DIY: https://github.com/4pplet/waffling60
You can also buy them here if you don't want to DIY: https://4pplet.com/products/waffling60

The GH60 is definitely around, Techkeys https://techkeys.us/products/gh60 still carry them and they were always a distributor for GH60

I like your PCB design, and really like the split spacebar support (which also works nicely with the standard HHKB layout!). Might bite the trigger after some more research. : )

I use about 8 keyboards with 4 different computers and constantly mix them up. So I don't really consider that's reason.

I realized that you have the Tina A, which uses a 6u spacebar. That limits your PCB selection a bit and unfortunately, you won't be able to use the waffling60 in the Tina A since it does not support 6u. Make sure you get one with 6u support. I'd say the GH60 is a bit dated with USB-mini and uses some switch rotations where it's not really needed, but it's still a solid PCB.

Hm, strange.

Amanda-Topfast:
this TF60 is OK for you
