HHKB 60%




HHKB is a layout that I couldn't get used to for the first couple of years when I joined the hobby. Since then, I have grown accustomed to the Control key being on Caps Lock and have grown to love it.
This is my take on what I think is the most beautiful layout for 60% (with thin side bezels) keyboards.

5. FAQ



* Any chance of WK or WKL?
No, this will be HHKB only.


* What colour options will there be?
Answered in details section


* What is the strip on the bottom right blocker for?
They are indicator LEDs. The first one is for Caps Lock and the other 2 are layer indicators.


* How many units will there be?
I don't know yet at this stage.


* Do you have a sound-test?
You might be able to catch the typing sound in one of the meet-up streams but I generally don't do sound tests. If this ever gets built by somebody and they happen to make a sound test, I will add a link to it then.


* Do you have a discord?
No I don't but Epsilon Keyboards has created a channel on their server for discussions on the Lily here
