no pre assemble. package it all individually
do you mind telling why?

I agree with demik on this. I've felt very good about all the Duck boards I've received, which were all in separate pieces and packed individually. There will be inevitable shifting and the screws will likely come loose, causing scratches, if packaged assembled. It may not happen most of the time, but if it happens once it would be very unfortunate.

If I would like to order one set of stabs, should I PM Yongjk?

Also, could you give us a little update?

Anyone using assembly services from Yongjk interested in the Zealio purple clear switches offered in GB? Shipping these switches tracked/insured to Malaysia costs ridiculously at $30-45, so if a few geekhackers are interested we could split the shipping.

I just messaged him about it!

I'm definitely in if we can get a mini GB.

I would like to know if there's any more info. Any! Even a pic of progress.
Not too much of a rush, though. Gotta set aside money for assembly and shipping, still.

Also, anyone interested yet in doing a small Zealio GB for the Jane? I myself want to do purple 65g.

I guess screws 'll pass bottom part, plate & top part. But KMAC2 used 20 screws, 10 screws to mount top & bottom part. And 10 remain screws to mount plate in bottom part. I really curious about way to mount plate now

I just wanted to make it clear I paid shortly after the update.

Sad to see a brother go, but I'm sure your decision is well grounded. Good luck with a buyer!

Regarding layout, I'm still deciding what to do. I was thinking of doing Purple Zealios 65g for the alphanumericals and main modifiers and arrow cluster, while having MX Tactile Gray as the Esc, space bar, Function row, and Ins-Page Down. Is that too insane? I'm used to heavier switches, so I'm not sure if that's a bit overkill.
