Stoked about the new TMO50! Got v1 in rose gold, but I need this in my life too. It's just an amazing layout and solid quality build all around.

Just one thing. Split left shift support.

As it now offers a 2.25u left shift and split right shift, why not offer a split left shift as well? It'd offer extra compatibility for ISO layouts where split left shift is widely used (usually for a variation of <>| symbols). And since the TMO50 has enough columns, it'd actually offer full compatibility for a Nordic Dvorak layout, which is afaik hitherto unseen in the 40% community.

I'm a Swedish ISO user and I find split left shift very comfortable to use and when I'm Linux-ing, I use it extensively for writing scripts in bash as it has the pipe symbol.

Unless there are pcb/electronic reasons for excluding it, would you consider adding support for it? I think it'd only add to the versatility of the board without having to make any deductions from it.

Just my two cents. I realize I noticed the IC/GB threads way too late and understand if it'd be difficult to make changes now.

Sorry about that but I wanted something special as the designer. No FE rounds this time so had to do a one-off for myself. Ruby Red aluminium looks :fire: as well in my eyes! Originally wanted that but I have never owned a polycarbonate board and still wanted that red.

Thanks ctrl for letting us know. We somehow skipped this over without much thought but it makes sense. Upas will add this and I'll change plate a bit. I myself am an ISO user most of my life so I can't leave ISO people hanging.

Saw the prototypes in person last weekend. They are just drop dead gorgeous. The anodizing on the blue prototype is buttery smooth, with absolutely no flaw visible under naked eyes. No cracks/defects on the polycarb. They both feel great, and sound great. Nothing to complain about. Was also told phillips screws will get replaced by hex screws for the production run, so that's just niceeeee. Just a solid keyboard overall funderburker! I would be very surprised if this board doesn't sell out under one minute.

Hehe, that's great to hear man! Thank you for the nice words, warms my heart on this cold & snowy day in Latvia! :)

You are right about that, Hex over Phillips screws and also we changed out the case screws to be socket caps so they sit in deeper and are just nicer than countersunks.
Small details but that's just something that can always be improved upon!

All these small tweaks after we received prototypes makes me feel like I should get a production board as well.  :p

P.S. Extras will be available 10 hours prior to actual GB!

so if Plates and PC case bottom will only be added to base kit orders.... but the extras start 10 hours earlier... how does that work?  if you get in on the FCFS extras but don't get a base kit does the order get cancelled or something?

Yeah, plates and PC case bottom are only eligible IF you win a base kit. They can be added to your cart prior just so you get a better change on getting in. PCBs are unlimited and stand-alone though.

This is done because - you don't need a plate or a PC bottom if you don't win a full board and PCBs are stand-alone cause then if you don't win you can still get a PCB and make your own case if you know how.

Plate files will be open-sourced over the weekend as well though so if that's nice. ;)

You should have received an email both confirming your entry into the GB as well as a secondary email prompting you to choose a color (if aluminum) or Smokey/clear if poly.

A few still left on mykeyboard.eu! E-white is sold out, but alu and pc are still available. If the numbers mentioned on Discord are right, that just might be the last pc kit left.

Apparently the mail where one gets to choose color won't be sent until end of weekend from mykeyboard.eu.

I asked this previously. No, there is no way to change it to a PC plate except from buying an extra.

But hey, you can always sell the brass plate in the future if you end up not liking it.

Hey people!

Unofficially I have information that all GB spots are sold so thanks to everyone who did get in for their TMOv2 and sorry to all of those that didn't!
Once we get all the statistics together, I'll share some relevant ones here!

Replying to some questions that arose here:

Hey guys!

I truly apologize about no updates earlier but IRL responsibilities got me all tired in the evenings. But it's been 3 weeks already (!!!) since sale happened so it's probably best to give a heads up what's happening! Promise that I'll try and update in a timely manner from now on!

We sold out all 130 boards world-wide in about 4 hours! That's extremely impressive and I am truly shocked about it! I hoped that would happen but when it did, I screamed like a little girl. Very thankful for everyone that purchased a TMOv2!

So about the updates:

I don't find it surprising at all. It's a pretty unique board which strikes a clever balance between minimalism and functionality unlike anything else out there in the <60% segment.

I was getting pessimistic before GB launch because of the slightly quiet GB thread and not seeing a lot of discussion about TMOv2 so I didn't know what to expect. Would it sell out in a few seconds, couple hours or over the weekend? But I gotta agree that TMO is truly a in-between sized board. From using a 40% and 60% boards, TMO strikes a good balance between size and functionality. I really got to build my proto!  :confused:

Update 20191216

I gotta apologize once again for some silence. I hope to be a bit more frequent once 2020 starts.

So let's get to the small updates:


Onto a big one. There's no easy way to put this but we've had to make a compromise regarding polycarbonate TMOv2 cases. Our factory messaged us about their concerns that the polycarbonate cases could be prone to warping if we don't add 4 additional case screws. I had to make the decision that all polycarbonate cases will come with 8 screws while aluminium counterparts will stay unchanged with only 4 case screws, one on each of the case corners.

I understand that some of you (me included) really like the clean angled back without any visible screw holes but it's a compromise both I and also the factory is willing to make to offer a better product in the end for everyone. This change does not change the feel of TMOv2 in any way, only changes the aesthetic of the board when viewed from the back.

One last thing I would like to mention is that due to this, people that have ordered an aluminium version of the board and have ordered polycarbonate bottom as extra will have some inconsistency between the parts - aluminium top will still have 4 case screws on the corners and polycarbonate bottom will have 8 case screws rendering the 4 middle one to be left empty. This, however, won't impact the integrity of the build as the issue mostly stems from polycarbonate top becoming warped and not the bottom.

As we did order prototypes in a timely manner and had them on-hand before GB order was made I can assure that I received a great polycarbonate case that didn't show any issues but keep in mind that it's a one-off and not one of tens of PC boards that will be made during GB so before making multiple it's hard to settle on a fail rate number. We trust in the factory that if they're letting us know early on about a potential issue down the road that it's best to resolve it now before real production has started.

For everyone that has ordered a full PC TMOv2, I am truly sorry but I would like to ship a board that has no structural issues even if it means changing it visually.

Please see model photos underneath:

I think most of us who ordered PC are aware of the additional manufacturing challenges. This seems like a pretty reasonable (and desirable) compromise to me.

They really do! But the factory isn't sending out raw metal ones and I believe that anything they let through as B-stock would be redone during manufacturing anyway.

Update 20200118

Heya... Apologies for the month-long silence.

  • All GB PCBs have been delivered to Upas
  • Case manufacturing is on-schedule and anodization is done. E-white and PC boards are nearing the end of manufacturing as well. No delays up to this point, let's keep it that way! ;D
  • TMOv2 will be VIA compatible and Upas has confirmed that it's very close to being "supported" officially.
  • Plate and weight files are HERE (https://drive.google.com/open?id=1ic8eYAH4Zjk2shd9wHmYM_1vp9FCl4fz)

Also - With the help of RealLaugh (thanks, mate!) I have couple of designs for the "Here we go boys..." sticker. Go HERE (https://forms.gle/akfr7BuTjMHBVJM49) to vote on your favourite colourway/-s! I'll keep this open for a month or so.

On a side-note, I'm very thankful for everyone that is waiting for their board/-s. I've been using mine ever since I built it up during Christmas holidays and it's been a treat to use. If anyone is interested in the keymapping I use, here it is.

To nathanchere - there's 22 RGB LEDs as underglow so firstly I'd suggest programming those to work as indicators. Could look cool if maybe a bit too much to have them on all the time. :D

Hey!

Unfortunately not really updates as our factory in China has stalled work until February 17th due to Covid-19.
As far as we know most of the boards have been produced and was about to be QC'd and packed for shipment.
Covid-19 has delayed GB a bit but we're on track with ETA as we added a "safety net" on it from the start.

Also regarding the stickers. I closed the form just now (I forgot about it, my mistake).

(https://i.imgur.com/fO55O2x.png)

So there's a tie between 9009 and Dualshot. I like both of the colourways so it's even harder to chose between them. WoB I is a close second.
Given there's already a "TMO" logo sticker planned in both white and black, I'd prefer to choose one colourway for "Here we go boys...".

There hasn't been any news from the factories due to SARS-CoV-2 outbreak but they're slowly starting to work in a smaller capacity.

  • Most of the anodized boards are done.
  • Some E-white boards still need to be finished but factory out-sources this and their supplier isn't open yet.
  • PC cases are CNC'ed but need to be dyed.
  • Factory contact person is getting back on Wednesday so Upas will find out any further updates regarding the timeline only then.
  • I'm working on getting the stickers made somewhere locally for both vendors as it would be most convenient for them. Final colourways are: 1x black & 1x white TMO logo, 1x 9009 colourway "Here we boys..." sticker.
  • Artisans by Sparkle Pony will soon be shipped to vendors so they have them when it's shipping time.

Thanks for the update funderburker!

Thanks for this info. As it stands, it was planned that TMOs would ship around late April/early May anyway as we did take into account possible delays (not of this degree though). As it stands now, I think the latest info was that the factory is doing QC but that was a little over a week ago. Given the holidays I need to check in with Upas on the status but it seems promising! :)

I've been informed from Upas that factory has QC'd everything, remade a few brass parts that were lost somewhere in-the-process and are about to ship everything out to vendors! I have no information when shipments will reach vendors so keep an eye out on their social channels BUT I'd like to add that please be patient and don't ask them every day where's your TMOv2. :D Slighty joking, slightly serious!


Stickers have been made and patiently awaiting their chance to be put inside your package as well the artisans for clear PC base kit orders. Rooting for a safe and problem-free last steps so y'all can get your TMOs!

NA orders are still in China, they've been shipped but due to COVID-19, shipping has been slow.

If other vendors receive their boards, you can use that as an indicator that the products have shipped, but that's about all.
If we're lucky, we will get them in this week and be able to ship them out! But even the estimates I receive from shipping companies typically fly by and get delayed frequently.

got mine in today... daaaaang e-white looking real nice.

For some reason I bought (in addition to the e-white kit) an extra poly bottom, PCB and plate, but not an extra top... I can't remember what I was thinking.. maybe a lighter travel board or alternate layout? was there a poly top option?  My mental failings aside, this is slick! thanks for putting together a 2nd round.

Look under add-ons on the first page of this thread. Extra bottom was just an add-on option for people that wanted underglow.

I know *how* it happened... just not sure *why*.  I probably figured I could switch the top back and forth...

Just FYI for anyone else modifying or planning on using the plate files, it's scale is x16 so make sure you scale it down x16 before you actually get a plate made.

Big Switch TMO incoming!!!!

I'm having difficulties flashing mines. QMK Toolbar detects it, but when clicking Flash, it would say no devices detected

*** Listing compatible HID devices: (must have Usage Page 0xFF31)
     - CannonKeys: TMOv2 -- CA04:70F2:0001 (8&35a7566b&0&0000)
  ! There are no devices available

Is this due to my computer not having the proper drivers?

Thanks.

Sounds more like you aren't going into the bootloader before you're attempting to flash.

there is a dip switch on the bottom of the pcb that needs to be set to 1, then you can flaash. Set it back to 0 after

Thanks for letting me know! Set to 1 and got into DFU mode.

When flashing, it doesn't detect the DFU.

I've got all the drivers installed, qmk toolbox updated them upon opening.

Is the MCU atmega3232u4?

Thank you!

Hey man, unfortunately the group buy happened last November.  The units are currently shipping out, there may be extras that would go up after all the gb units ship.

The MCU is STM32, you'll likely have to use zadig on windows to get the proper drivers installed for it.

Hey! I suggest you join mykeyboard.eu and/or Cannon Keys discord servers and join their newsletters as well. Depends where you're located as mykeyboard.eu is EU vendor and Cannon Keys being US vendor.

One last update (probably) [2020-07-03]

First of all, I'd like to thank each and every one of you for the support during the GB phase and also for being a wonderful group of people that enjoys your boards. A lot of you that have received your boards, be it from Cannon Keys, MyKeyboard.eu or AEBoards, have shared great photos and builds and each one of the boards has been just awesome! I truly feel proud of how this GB has happened and how happy and excited a lot of you have been to receive your own "tiny mechanical object".

Secondly, for the people that for some reason haven't had the chance to get your hands on one, there's a chance for you TOMORROW (Saturday, July 4th at 11 AM ETS) on Cannon Keys (https://cannonkeys.com/) as there's gonna be some extras and B-stock, as well as extra add-ons for those of you that have a TMOv2 but wants to get a PCB, plate or PC bottom. ;) If you want to be up-to-date and just chat about the board and have any other questions about extras, please visit Cannon Keys Discord server (https://discord.gg/FskZhMr).

Again - thank you for the wonderful reception and this has truly been a big thing for me and is very motivating to keep doing what I can only call my biggest accomplishment thus far. This hobby and the community means a lot to me and it's been a great journey for me and hopefully for y'all too!

Peace and stay safe,
funderburker

Thanks for all the help! I was able to flash it.

For anyone interested, I set the dip switch to 1 and had zadig opened up, then plugged in the pcb. It was able to recognize and install the drivers.

After that, you can flash it normally as any other qmk compatible pcb. I set mines up with VIA after watching Nathan's (Taeha Types) stream.
