Yep. I'm down. It would be cool if there could be a fun color like MHKB Fabulous Teal or something. Also wouldn't say no to a PC one. While I'm asking for stuff, how about R2 Esc. and R1 Delete as RAMA or similar quality metal artisans, like the titanium ones Evan sold a couple months back.

yeah space grey is getting a frosty reception right now, which is a shame because it's the most versatile (imo). sound off in the IC form with what colors you wanna see and i'll be monitoring the situation closely on whether it'll get replaced.

lol u made me feel so old, that only about 3 years ago! i remember that, but at ~2.8lbs unbuilt, i think one-handed shots in crowds should be harder and i recommend setting your Campsite down before photo ops.

What cap set is that in the first pic, goes great with the blue (and would match Cajal too

)

I think I'm interested if a PCB is made available with it.

Edit: Ignore my first IC submission. I mentioned Hammerhead but I've checked and I can't get the keys for this layout

Yep, there goes WB yet again. Awesome. Gotta love that weight design.

Also, where the cool ranch at!? Render with that would fire.

harlekein · « **Reply #24 on:** Wed, 15 July 2020, 08:58:28 »

The backspace isn't an issue if you don't absolutely need to join GB's for endless set reruns with decreasing compatibility or color picker of the month celebration.

Madrai · « **Reply #25 on:** Wed, 15 July 2020, 12:58:52 »

Looking forward to Cajal, and looking forward to this.

Nvmbra · « **Reply #26 on:** Wed, 15 July 2020, 14:39:54 »

I'm definitely in and I would like to see the option to add a PCB to the case too.

I hope you will consider black as an additional colour.
It's neutral and I think it will go well together with the simple and elegant look of the case.

Filled in the form.

Edit: Grammar

Aw, was hoping for a 50% after Cajal. In any case GL with IC, looking great for the minivanners.

Edit:
That engraving on the back is sick btw.

If I add a color, a purple like Drank is definitely what I'm leaning towards....

I also made a Walletburner Industries Discord today, so people can keep track of my projects and stay up-to-the-minute with updates and get quick answers questions. I'll still be attending all my posts and channels, but this will be an additional route for info if people want it. Come hang out: https://discord.gg/qBs5bRU.

This is just a case for currently existing PCBs. See the list of compatible PCBs in the first post.

this buy includes no PCB, but there are multiple revisions of the TheVan PCBs that it should be compatible with. As far as I know, all of them support QMK, some VIA, and span some miniUSB and some USB-C ports. I am in talks with TKC about offering PCBs at the time of sale to make things more convenient for people who don't already own a PCB for it.

Looks good! Very interested in this. My MiniVan came without a plate, and the wobble is horrible because of the hotswap sockets. This case would be an awesome upgrade!

Also, I put my GMK Camping on it, so I definitely can't skip a case called "Campsite"

thanks for the support! bad news tho, GMK Camping never had a 40% kit.... So that might be tough or you'll have to resort to incorrect legends to make it work. either way, thx!

No, it did not. But I made it work (sort of).

Very much yes! I'd planned on doing much experimenting with my MiniVan, but by the time it arrived the company was gone. I might just have to get a few color options.

Would be 100% in if it came with a PCB! Been trying to look for the PCBs you mentioned in the original post but can't seem to find any info on them. Even if TKC offered the PCB separately through their own site I would be in too.

hey yall

thanks for your enthusiasm and yes, i will plan to offer the revised TKC Minivan PCBs alongside this buy if possible. three prototypes are currently in production and i will take pictures when they arrive.

Looking forward to it. If it was mhkb layout it would be the perfect case for me. \
But I will probably join the GB!
