[GB] Alps Party 60% - Hannibal at the Gates

[CommonCurt]

Well, time to think about cases. What's everyone getting? I'm out of money, so I'm buying plastic cases from Ali Express, but I've been thinking about getting some custom wood cases made by Ianis once I'm flush again.

Since the GH60s still haven't shipped here in the US, I have plenty of 60% alu cases for my Alps 60% projects.

Hammer...  treble318... imsto... TEX... Pure CNC... Vortex...

Some of them I have multiples of. I have too many 60% cases.

Slide a Hammer this way. That case is gorgeous; it got me like        

+1 For real

I'm going to do a first test making wood cases on a cnc this week, may sell some, but will definitely share the results.

I'm looking for a wood case with the HHKB layout, if you manage to have success drop me a PM!

So far I've only made a file for a poker ii case, and haven't even tested that yet I will tell you if I make a hhkb case though

[SpikeBolt]

Would anyone be interested in swapping a HHKB Layout for an Infinity hacker style one?

I wanted to have HHKB style wooden case made but apparently that would be too expensive because of the bottom row coverings Such a bummer.

[trees]

I have way to many projects going on right now, and am looking for someone to take over my spot here if possible. I have:

Assembled PCB, Infinity plate, Quiet Clicks, and a Stab set. PM me if interested.

Am i allowed to bump this after a week? If not yell at me and ill delete it.

[BlueNalgene]

Once a week is a pittance.  Carry on, trees.

That's fine from our perspective too, if that was in question.

Unlike absyrd, I don't have a burning hatred for you. 

[tominabox1]

Sooooo You have switches and I'm pretty sure the PCBs are in.... Should I start holding my breath?

PCBs are in the US, but I don't have them yet.

the hype is getting real... 

[deductivemonkee]

How far along is the plate fabrication?

[BlueNalgene]

How far along is the plate fabrication?

Updates!

Plates - due to be complete by Nov. 23
PCBs - In the mail from Hasu, not sure on arrival date yet
Switches/Stabs - Scheduled delivery Nov. 16

Time to get excited.

Does anyone know if a winkeyless b.face BBB acrylic case would work with this pcb?

PCBs are in the US, but I don't have them yet.

I hope they will arrive safe and sound without USPS harsh handling and customs impose not much on you

[U47]

Will the plates arrive with the powder coating complete? I'd love to see a pic

Double post:

I have had three people message me asking about sending out their orders soon.  I am going to send things out as soon as the boxes are full, so if you only have switches, it will be ready to go in the near future.  This is primarily because my tiny sports car won't allow me to take too many orders to the post office per trip. 

However, I spent 12 hours in lab each of the past two days.  So by the time I get home, eat, do necessary things, etc., I'm pretty much spent.  I don't expect today to be any different.  I know that everyone is super excited about the things, and I swear I'm on it, but please be patient.  I will have time this weekend for luxuries like sleep and group buys.

[tofgerl]

You can ask the post office to pick up the packages. Might cost a bit, but will be much easier.

A good thought, and it is actually free with the USPS.  But it would require me to be at home.

What this bumbling blue water bottle is trying to say is anybody that whines about the status of their order gets a one week delay per offence :evil-devil-grin:

Edit: Comment milestone!

Ah, so thats what you used the extra money from this buy for.

I know there are a lot of Alpine Winter buyers watching this thread, and I would just like to reassure all of you that just like every responsible GB leader, I drive a crossover with lots of cargo space.

Ugh, I knew I should have just said "two-door". 

I'd like to say my car gets more **** than njbair's but it's hard to bone in these leather bucket seats. 

I'm sure he needs the space in the crossover anyway.  With the 2.5 kids, yoga mats, shopping bags, and family dog, it is difficult to still have enough room for his waning manhood.

[HoffmanMyster]

Hahahaha.

At least show us the car now, Blue.  You owe us that much.

2000 Lexus SC-300
Stock exterior
All the original options
I've made some engine updates
I've also did some custom audio mods (everything still looks stock though).
It might be the only one produced with this color combo (cinnabar pearl with a flake clear coat), but I don't have any sources for that.  The paint is original.

This is my second SC300 (RIP Gray), for good reason.  I love them to death.  They are the perfect blend of comfort and muscle.

I only have 2 kids and no yoga mats but everything else is correct, especially the part about not having room for my manhood.
