I am super into this - JST cable angle and hole in weight is really great.

Damn! That's internal brass looks sexy, as well as the brushed SS weight. Hope there're options for brushed SS weight and PP plate.

hhkb version pls

I would consider 6u hhkb, but that exists on a xt board that is specifically designed around that layout. 7u hhkb may be an option but we shall see after protos, since I dont want to increase SKUs right now, but maybe closer to the drop.

I do have a true hhkb layout board in prototype too, just not with xts. Again, not saying no

PC sounded dead in this, which only makes me think PP will have even less character. I will release plate files in the future for this however

only 100 boards hurts! I like the layout a lot, will have to make sure I don't miss it

robotictomato · « **Reply #63 on:** Wed, 27 April 2022, 16:16:28 »

Really, really nice. The design is great, and I appreciate the Alps compatibility. I am definitely in on this one, or at least will try to get in on this one. The low count of 100 boards will make that a challenge - it would be great if you would consider raising that number.

Are the plates Alps compatible, or will there be separate Alps plates? I would definitely build this with Alps.

Right now I’m not too concerned about the numbers. The reason I prefer less is so I can deliver the boards faster. In the same way as my previous project, if there is significant interest I would add to the count.

That being said - I’m likely moving manufacturers (again) so to keep that price, or even close to it, numbers would have to increase. Doing all this (including testing new production lines) before the gb since I want that to run smooth.

Alps plates are being tested, but I have both variants with mx stabs and AEK/AT101 stabs (think of SGI Granite)

All that being said…100 isn’t a challenge. I try to not hype things up and let a project speak for itself, so it flies under the radar of the thocc chasers now in the hobby

I think the words "top mount" were enough to make all the thocc chaser go away. lol

granola bar enthusiast · « **Reply #67 on:** Thu, 28 April 2022, 08:32:57 »

this is a really cool idea, why did you decide to use SS instead of brass on the outside? Is it just because SS is cheaper?

Excellent, thanks for the response. I will just keep my eye on this for now! Glad to hear you are considering plates with Alps stab support for vintage sets, as well as for the newer DCS sets in the works.

Really looking forward to seeing what colors you select for this as well...

It’s definitely not cheaper

Was bored. Wanted to test it and see how it looks. Turns out very nice. The polished samples I’ve gotten are fantastic as well, will publish those soon

Love how soft and welcoming this board looks. I have been eyeing a board for my blue alps and this may be it. Great work!
