[IC]KBDfans75 v2 PCB new design

[Trousers]

I wasn't quite sure of this, but the prototype changed my mind. If the price is in any way reasonable, I think I'll get one.

The way it sounds be the same price as Gen 1's are maybe a bit cheaper? I am hopping it stays in that 170ish area.. cause its cheap enough to be reasonable but high enough quality to be more expensive.. hope that makes since.

I hope cheaper, this case should be cheaper to produce afterall

So what's the deal with the '< >' in that layout? That is just a red flag to me.

It's one of the optional layouts. If you don't like that layout don't use it and build it with the regular 75% layout.

I must be mistaken. The render is intentionally missing the "< ," key? If so, why? Maybe I'm missing something here... Having both a command and a period is pretty necessary  :p.

The render is showing a optional layout with it adding in a number pad. It can still be built like a normal 75%

That's my bad. I didn't consider how the numpad cuts into punctuation columns. Interesting concept, but I think I'll stick with the standard 75% Thanks for the clarification.

any news when this will go on sale?

will it be group buy or from stock?

This is what I'm curious about as well! Holding off on other keyboards if this is reasonably close.

The layout is interesting, but I'd WAY rather have one like this custom "75% + 1" build: https://geekhack.org/index.php?topic=75880.0

That would be endgame for me!

[schoolbus]

is this still active?

[Zuology]

I just want the 5 degree diamond case in 75% size like they teased months ago.

[japancakes]

Has anybody out there seen an actual build of this new layout with the numpad? I'm really tempted to do a hot swappable build similar to the layout but add back ">" and "?" and get rid of the right shift completely.

I have not seen one of these built yet! I do know he recently started advertising the plates on his website for it. The only down fall is you have to remove a stand off from the case according to his guide... which to me is a bit daunting of a task.

[Zuology]

Has anyone heard if there's been any further news/progress on a 75% 5-degree case or similar? He teased it sometime last year and I'm assuming the new plate layout that requires the cutting of a standoff will be addressed in future 75% case design...

[schoolbus]

Bring back this case design!
