Title: [IC] Collide39 - Not Quite 30% or 40% Keyboard w/ a Macro Twist!
Post by: SpaceCatDesign on Fri, 13 July 2018, 13:16:29

Hey everyone!

SpaceCat Design is working with Maple Computing on a new and exciting project...at least we think so! :-)

Here are some renders of the keyboard in question, no point in not getting right to it, eh?

As you can see from the renders, many layouts are supported. Essentially it's a small profile keyboard with a macro (or artisan) area on the right. Our intent is to ship with PCB case/plate combination. We are also working with some well-known vendors to get cases made out of various materials.

MSRP looks to be about $60 for a fully on-board, soldered keyboard (with PCB case, of course). You would just supply and solder your own switches/stabs. It would use QMK most likely.

So, basically this is an interest check to get some feedback on things before we go any further. The form itself is here:

Thank you so much, as always. <3

I love small boards and think it’s an area with plenty of innovation left to mine. Consider two units sold to me if it goes to GB.

I can't say no to cheap innovative DIY kits like this. I like the macro pad to the right, very cool. I'm likely in.... The only thing is that ~40% boards with PCB cases are usually half that price...
