Also want to add this: If you order assembly service, you should not order "DIY" PCBs. DIY means you're going to assemble everything yourself, including the SMD components.

If you need to change your order, please submit a request using this form.

Thanks! :D

should we be putting all other information in the comments section? aka like layout we want and LEDs

i want the hhkb layout, but i think i want a normal right shift instead of a small pure one, just because it's a pain to get a 1.75x shift key for keycap sets. i might map the fn down to one of the meta keys instead.

don't want to be annoying :D
i live in Serbia, Europe, and we don't have paypal here. i can only pay with VISA Virtuon. will this be possible?

if yes, i will also need help with order form:
Quote
Switches and stabilizers (stabilizers are in sets, each set is enough for 1 whole keyboard. Switches are per switch)
Costar stabs, Plate-mounted, PCB-mounted cherry stabs (specify spacebar wire size). The switch color you want. FORMAT: quantity x item
if i want a poker layout, is this how it should look:
61 x mx blue
1 x plate-mounted stabilizers

thanks!

Sorry, not trying to ignore you, but I don't know if that's possible or not. tjcaustin will be invoicing and collecting payments, and he is only accepting payment via Paypal. Perhaps komar007 might be willing to accept your payment, as he is located in Poland, and would be shipping your order. But you would have to ask him directly.

Hmm.. also, for the Assembly Service... it's a radio button. I've ordered 2 boards and want them both assembled. so thats $25 x 2. Should this have a Qty field? Or just put that in the Comments/notes?

I think the bulk of the instruction is going to be in the Comments/notes field. Layout, switch configuration, etc. The rest of the fields are mainly useful for consolidating the orders.

If you want a plate (optional), the one you want is not on the order form, yet. WFD needs to update the form with the "HHKB" plate. Other than that, you need a GH60 PCB (not DIY), 60 switches, and stabilizers (PCB mount Cherry). Assembly service if you don't plan to solder the switches (and install the optional plate) to the PCB. Not sure what you mean by "with Cherry MX Brown switches and MX black for the keyboard."

Is doesn't have to, the translation from standard key codes to actual letter happens on the OS side, so no need to worry.

Sent an update to my order in support of split backspace Pure plate :)

One more question. I can, through this group buy, get everything except the case and keycaps? I see that WFD has a case thing going soon too. Do I need to source some keycaps or can I basically just camp out in this thread and wind up with a complete working keyboard?

It's really cool to see this happen, what with all the people coming together to get it all done. You guys are great.

Sorry, for Poker layout (any with 1.25) get 6.25x wire.

Also, for 1.50 layouts, get 7x wire.

Yes, plate mount stabs including Costar will work with all these plates. You might need to do a little bit of sanding or grinding, as the plate is 0.0625" thick, and Costar spec is for 0.060"

WFD said;

blablabla...

EDIT: oops what am I thinking, I'm second-guessing myself haha. There's already a Pure-style plate with 1.5x modifiers that will work in a HHKB layout. It just doesn't have a split backspace. If you truly want a split backspace for the 1.5x pure plate, mention this in the comments section of your order. if there are more than a couple, I can make a separate plate for it. Dorkvader already PM'ed me about this.


I'm confused.
What should people who want truly HHKB layout (split Backspace) plate do?
Wait for form update? Order with comment?

Yes, ask for 7x wire in the switch/stabilizer section. You can find 7x spacebars (and 1.5x mods) with the tsangan kits on every keycap set GB.

Sent you a PM with your current order.

Yes, this is correct. You can also put your desired layout in the comments section, in case others want a plate with the same option, we will know how many are interested.

There's this option on the order form: ANSI 1.5x (pure shift) plate quantity, short R-shift, WKL and HHKB compatible

Isn't this what you're talking about?

If we want Dragon's case for the hhkb layout and top, are we going to have to order everything seperate? i am hearing that if we want to get Dragon's future case (which looks like the best option for the hhkb layout) we will have to order all gh60 parts separate and un-assembled, and then build it ourselfs? what is going to be the actual process?  do i need to order the case first or the parts? how will they be integrated together?

JD could I get an order review as well. I should check it and in a few days I'll make sure I've got it updated/correct. A lot of info on here has got me thinking I jumped the gun on my order.  :p

Sent you a PM with your order. :)


If we want Dragon's case for the hhkb layout and top, are we going to have to order everything seperate? i am hearing that if we want to get Dragon's future case (which looks like the best option for the hhkb layout) we will have to order all gh60 parts separate and un-assembled, and then build it ourselfs? what is going to be the actual process?  do i need to order the case first or the parts? how will they be integrated together?

You should order the GH60 parts now, and you can order WFD's case later, when he starts the GB for it. It will have an integrated plate available, but you can also use these plates with his case, as they have the standoffs for it. If you use the plate (or no plate) from this GB, all you would have to do to install it in his case is use a few screws to assemble it. Or you could wait, and someone will be able o assemble everything, including the integrated plate, for you after the cases ship.

If you want the same setup as a Poker, you should order the GH60 PCB, 61x MX Clear switches, 1x Cherry PCB mount stabilizers, and assembly service (if desired). Poker plate is optional. You would have to source a case for it outside the GB.

I think I messed up my form, should have read the thread first (the switches and stabilizers section) Should I submit a new one?
