I feel like this is a dumb question, but this comes with either a nerd pcb or a b87 right? Wasnt sure if that was just the compat or not.

Definitely not a dumb question, since you probably would have felt dumb when you ordered a case and realized it came with no PCB ;).

could we get an option to replace the frosted white acrylic midpiece for a clear one?

It doesn't look like there's been an update on this in a while.  I just wanted to check in and see if there are still plans for this to happen.

Yep, foggyflute is just dealing with some big IRL stuff (which obviously takes precedence) but as soon as that is all cleared up, we'll be good to go. Everything else is in place :thumb:

So obviously this project is still in a bit of a hiatus, but I still am trying to make this happen, rest assured.

Going to be looking for someone else to take over the manufacturing portion of this project. After my experiences with non-knowledgeable people, I'd optimally like to find someone on here with connections to a water-jetting place or has one that they've worked with in the past. hmu y'all

Would love to get one for my Vortex Core so I can actually get some use out of the underglow on the Atom47 PCB.

So again, with foggyflute being a persona-non-grata, if anyone here has connections to a manufacturer (preferably keyboard-knowledgeable, or at least enough themselves) I would be very appreciative since this IC got over 250 responses

The Space65 group buy (which I think should ship soon) has a carbon fiber plate.  Perhaps the person running that could point you at whoever did their carbon fiber plates (if not Airpotter, maybe Oldcat).  I'm guessing Alf, but I'm not sure of that.  You could also check with Originative about who did the carbon fiber for their run of Weaven cases.  Sorry I don't have anything more direct to offer.

I don't believe any 65% cases ever got produced.

Yeah, I've had other stuff going on so I haven't been searching super hard for anything. Reached out to a few other GB-runners here and didn't get responses so I'm really just shopping around. I do still hope to get this started eventually, though.

Ugh, i wish my lame ass ymdk96 pcb was more popular because this case would be perfect.

Well, if I find someone to do, just hmu when the buy starts and I'll see about one-off prices (though I also don't know CAD or anything so the compatibility re-design would be between you and the manufacturer)
