Not the biggest fan of the thicc bezels but certainly interested for the prospect of getting a board with no shipping charge as a local. That would be different! Also +1 for non-hotswap option.

You won't be able to screw it into the plate though, and it would just be held in by switches.

Since this is hot-swap version only, is it possible to have a stepped caps lock on this one? Still new don't know a lot of stuff.

Our plate will only support one layout as it's meant for hot swaps. It's difficult to support multiple layouts with the hotswap sockets.

When's the date? I am in!
Recommending Daily Clack for Australian / Oceanic vendor!

Although this is subject to change.Woo that's cloooose! Excited! What will the final colors be? I wanted to get the purple one. Only if the blue one is a bit lighter, like sky blue or light blue, that's what i'll get. But i really wanted to see the protos first before i decide. Sadly Grey isn't an option. That would be the safest pick.
Yellow please! If yellow makes it to the group buy then I am buying it.

As sadly i may have to let go of my Olivia++

As sadly i may have to let go of my Olivia++ We will do all colours, but it will be likely anodized. The colour will not be exact to the references. The delays on the prototype are because the manufacturers trying to get the anodized colours close.
GB Date yet?

You won't be able to screw it into the plate though, and it would just be held in by switches.Have you confirmed any other PCB's that may work in the case? I'm fine with the PCB not being able to be screwed on, but would really prefer to have a soldered version with a different layout. Thank you! EDIT: Just realized, probably not, as they'll need to be compatible with the Unified C3 Daughterboard.
How thick is the plate going to be?
Fantastic board! I filled out both interest checks, asking for blue and white. Just want to let you know I also would really love to see purple thrown in there. I think I'd end up buying one safe color and one more out there color such as purple. Fingers crossed theres no blocker, see you at the group buy !
Is this using plate mounted stabs or we praying to the gods of friction?

Do you think it affects sound/stiffness?Sent from my MotoG3 using Tapatalk
Price seems great. Design looks right up my alley but for some reason I have hard time seeing how it is in real life. Something about the steep angles from the bezels. Anyway for now I'm definitely in for this.
Is the brass base as an option confirmed?
Strange to have all of that thickness and the keycaps still stick up over the top edge, exposing the switch housings underneath. I would prefer to see the pcb/plate assembly lowered at least a milimeter to hide the switches.
Hoping an Australian vendor specifically Switch Keys is possible!
ISO?
