I am definitely in for the brass plate ;) Makes things helluva lot easier for me if you guys offer a good quality one along with the case.

Brass plate sample. Not sample but you guys can see the finish. Also the thickness
Show Image

What we gonna offer is 1.5mm thickness brass plate:D

Wow that TKL looks nice, is that something that will come in the future?

By any chance you'd offer that same Everest White finish to other color?

Looks like white is the only option. See another prototype pic from Alf. Took with a cellphone with low light, white balance is likely off a bit, and not a whole lot of detail. High quality pics forthcoming soon.

Thanks! Can't wait for more pics. More pics are always good 😁😁. Could you also get some pics of the grey(green-ish) color as well? How much of the green touch are we looking at here?

Dumb question - would this fit an Anne Pro / POK3R PCB?

I’m thinking Purple Case + RGB 60% + Laser Blocknet & Kobe  :)
Anne pro can't fit.
Poke3r PCB Should be ok?! Anyone got idea?

So I did some more digging on this.

Looks like the screw locations match, but is a little bit thicker because of rgb pcb. This means it’ll sit a hair taller off the screw bosses, but since this is a high profile case, it won’t be an issue. A reddit user confirmed this on the same question (in regards to POK3R RGB in high-profile cases in general)

Which means I’m in for a purple one!  :thumb:

1) 1.5mm thickness brass plate to give strong and stable support.

2) Polish the surface after cnc.

3) Surface passivation treatment after polishing to prevent oxidization.(can last at least half of year)

4) Mail to you and enjoy it:p

To use both cable/bluetooth double mode, I think you need to buy a Bluetooth enabled PCB, such as YD60BLE, or the much-anticipated DDMilli
(available on KBDfans I think).

That's really strange since shipping to Sweden was $39, and UK is $38.

Well, it is somewhat well known that ALF puts in as much material as he could... Not a bad thing. Have you heard about the 8KG board he built?

At some point later this year maybe (either a DC60 Lux or DC65 Lux).

I have been pushing ALF for a Sandwich 65% that inherits the merits of DC60, but note that I think the price point will be close to a Fjell. This time for DC60 he is purposefully pricing at his marginal cost to showcase the community the top-notch quality of his products. "Not going to make money out of DC60, but to gain good international reputation," as he said to me the other day.

So any idea when the Brass plate option will be available to order, would it be part of our current order later on? How much do you think it will be? hopefully no more than 40usd.
