Quick question, if we submitted the form before this GB thread opened, are we all set, or do we need to fill the form out again?

Are the photos what the final finish would look like?  Seems to be kind of a brushed steel.  Would like to see what it would look like on red or black, not wild about it on the silver...looks very raw.  Of course, that may be the look that they were going for.

Is it possible to buy the keyboard without a PCB?
I want to use the Clueboard PCB, because I prefer the QMK firmware over Jigon. I am pretty tight on money right now, so the $50 saved on the Leeku PCB would help me out a lot.

I'm quite a fan of the brushed finish.
A keyboard like this in a diamond blasted stainless steel would be something quite special.

From the OP:

======================================================

No letter on the weight plate.
letter on bottom case.

======================================================

I believe "letter on bottom case" means some engraving on the bottom piece like on the LZ-CLS keyboard:

Yesssss! Still would love a Red high profile MX HHKB, but this will cease that itch for a while. We'll see which awesome creator decided to make the next one! :)

I love the Red case + Beige keycap combo, just looks so good, in my opinion! Grey too.

Dear LZ,

On the order form, I filled out the colour of Leds to be Orange or Yellow (I forgot).

PLEASE can you rectify the colour to PURPLE.  Really want the leds to be Purple, it's the only colour in which I don't have in my collection.

Really looking forward to this one, this order is for me alone and not for any other relative.

You can install adhesive front feet to level off the angle to exactly 7 or 8 degrees.  Done it before with another LZ keyboard, works perfectly without it looking bunked.

LifeZ frequently posts photos of unfinished prototypes--they've been cut and have the right shape, but no sandblasting or anodizing yet.  Hence the finish you see.

The cherry silent blacks are new, right?

Are they comparable to vint blacks in terms of smoothness and feel?

Thanks! :)

No idea tbh. I've not tried either yet but I have a vintage black board in the works and am hoping to have some silents by the time the wait for this is over.  I've read that newer cherry switches are generally pretty smooth, but it seems like hardly anyone has even used silent blacks yet so information is a bit scarce.

The only currently available keyboard using the new Silent Blacks are the RGB Pok3rs, currently selling at MassDrop.

Buy one and see how it compares to the older Blacks made years ago.  I put in an order for one Pok3r with Silent Blacks installed, just out of curiosity.

I'd love to but there's too many things I want to buy right now, and they're all keyboards.
