Well, submitted a form for HHKB teal/black/teal w/ silver plate. I'll worry about consolidating the money later.

Normally don't like 60, but the design for this board has really grown on me. That teal is one of the best colors I've seen a board done in.

Classic beige/blue from OCO (the 2013 one)

Retiring my Filco.

Might pick up KB&CO for my birthday if it's still in stock in April.

You mentioned in the IC that Rose Gold was offered. Do I select MAO and type in Rose Gold?

Looks like rose gold wasnt picked. The point of the IC was to choose what 5 colors were being offered. Rose Gold seems to not be one of them.

Ah thanks! That's unfortunate.

Went with silver top/bottom, brass tag, middle, and weight, and PC plate. Never done a PC plate before, but I'm hoping it'll feel nice with Zilents, which I plan on using for this.

A few questions:

Are there photos of how MAO compares to plain silver?

The name plates in this photo set https://imgur.com/gallery/PVgSp seem to use different fonts, can I send you a vector file or specify a font, or is that font obligatory?

Here's a bad photo of Mao, but it shows how grey it is IRL (not mine)

There is a render, but that looks shiny, i believe the brass will be blasted like the midcase. But there was no brass in R1 so no photos exist yet i don't think.

__foo_ · « **Reply #34 on:** Mon, 26 February 2018, 01:45:24 »

Is the default PCB Bootmapper or QMK supported?

There was no pic

Just for R2 . You can let the brass be shiny or like r1 sandblasted

InvidiousIgnoramus · « **Reply #37 on:** Mon, 26 February 2018, 02:39:40 »

Fingers crossed on getting that all brass.

ak_xf1re · « **Reply #38 on:** Mon, 26 February 2018, 02:43:18 »

Shame there's no red option for the middle or the name tag to match my E8, but I went for Brass instead.

I've sent you an email regarding some address situation excluisve.

Looking forward to it

InvidiousIgnoramus · « **Reply #43 on:** Mon, 26 February 2018, 08:56:41 »

I assume we will tell you our options for brass at a later time, yes? And can we get things engraved on the Founder's Edition's Weight, or no?

I really wanted a blank weight but forgot to write it in the form. Is this an option only if an extra weight is purchased? I don't want to bother you with custom engravings so I figured getting a blank one and finding a shop locally would be best.

Puddsy, thanks for your reply to my question in the IC regarding MAO vs anodizing. It was very helpful. I know it's been mentioned that the MAO is gray-ish in real life, but I'm wondering if it's more gray or more white. I put in an order for the MAO top and bottom case, but now I'm second guessing that choice after seeing a couple pictures (maybe bad lighting?).

Quote from: iamacicada on Mon, 26 February 2018, 02:13:09

I'd highly recommend anodized aluminum over MAO for this keyboard, at least with this new (dark) green and blue that i currently have on hand.

The anodising on this thing is miles miles better than the E8 and feels super smooth IRL. Here's just a ****ty shot of the alu surface and i don't think it does the board justice at all.

Edit: oh and to avoid confusion this is NOT the dark blue that will be used for the GB, its just a 'regular blue' prototype

Out of curiosity, why the anodized over MAO? I know they're different finishes, but the texture is different isn't it?
