Haven60 by Garner
Unique & Customizable
Inspired by vintage Victorian furniture, the Haven60 gives a unique impression on the desk with its bold and curvy design.
Haven60 is designed to be compatible with standard 60% PCBs to support a wide range of layouts and allows you to use a PCB of your own preference.
This way the keyboard supports anything from split spacebar and split backspace to arrow keys and HHKB. Both ANSI and ISO.

Revamped Top Mount Concept
This mounting system provides a combination of gasket mount and top mount.
The idea is that the cylindrical rubber gaskets will allow the board's flex to be adjustable (https://imgur.com/a/kNVWkB5).

Group buy info
This keyboard is sold without PCB and comes with a plate that supports a wide range of layouts for maximum customizability.
Make sure your PCB supports the listed layouts above and have USB-C placed at the top left corner (the GH60/dz60/pok3r standard).
I have compiled a list of compatible PCBs further below, (and I'm sure there are more).
There is also a matching custom wrist rest to be offered as well as a carrying case with cutout for both the keyboard and the wrist rest!

Typing test from Alexotos: Polycarbonate plate
_________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________Flex configuration
Haven60's flexibility can be configured by simply adjusting the tightening of the plate screws, below are a few examples to show the span of possible flex.
Going for high flex requires you to skip case foam. Album here (https://imgur.com/a/kNVWkB5)
The plate is allowed to move vertically thanks to the synergy between cylindrical rubber gaskets on the screws and the top frame gasket.
This means there is less stress applied to the PCB as it isn't being bent from fixed points.
Maximum flex ~3mm screw distance (m3 screw as reference) | Polycarbonate plate | PCB foam | No bottom case foam
(https://i.imgur.com/ZCFPKTM.gif) (https://i.imgur.com/oKtmseb.jpg)
Low flex ~1.5mm screw distance (half m3 screw as reference) | Polycarbonte Plate | PCB foam | No bottom case foam
(https://i.imgur.com/hHqmFox.gif) (https://i.imgur.com/wezyytY.jpg)
No flex Screws fastened just until you start gettting a bit of resistance | Polycarbonate Plate | PCB foam | Bottom case foam

FAQ and other information
Does this keyboard include PCB?
No, the keyboard is designed to fit the standard 60% PCB's like dz60/gh60 with USB-C in the upper left corner.
Several PCBs have been tested during the prototype stage and I made a list of those that are confirmed compatible:
DZ60 rev. 3
DZ60 RGB v2 Hot Swap
BM60 RGB Hot swap
XD60
For HHKB with split spacebar these will likely fit:
H60 by Hineybush
NOP60 by Checkerboards
Plate files will be released when the units have been shipped out.

Sadly the project is cancelled due to not reaching MOQ.

Big thanks to those who supported the project anyway! I have other very exciting stuff going on. :D
I have contacted the supplier and it is a pity that the transactions were canceled, if there is any information that can be shared here, bro.

The important information was shared already. MOQ wasn't met. I asked roughly how far the shortfall was and from memory I think it was like 20-30 units. So there would still be hope to try running it again maybe. I would suggest the get rid of the two-tone colour options next time, don't have duplicates like two different choices for blue, and it would fare better.
