WTf, it's pretty weird. I opened the images in a new tab and I got an 403 - unauthorized error. Then I reloaded the imgur link and I was able to see them. After that, I came back to this thread and they were able to load.

Yes,pixelpusher told me that images from Imgur aren’t working On geekhack as of last night. I think the problem is just you should login imgur first before you can see that. Or might be that you have already load up than you can see those pictures.

The switch lights are all rgb.
the crack lights are rgb,but because of the colored acrylic we used, we only program red and green one for red version and blue and green one for deep blue version. Other color were hard to distinguish in our test.

Yep. Looking forward to scalpers (or people who "got it, but I just didn't feel it. Used for a day.") to resell them at $900 two weeks later.

Oh well, I'll live without it.

Not a fan of the weird/proprietary connector that means if your cat eats your cable you'll be hard pressed to find a new one that'll fit. Also not a fan of the non-programmable PCB in 2018.

$499 at that time.
Consider about the difficulty for building morstone up(because of the 136 beads we used for the crack light,we just use FPC to keep that work), we decided to assemble all of them for our customers.
So the price $523 includes switches and transportation.

This is our first keyboard kit, we do know that wireless and programmable are in high demand so we are considering about that in our next product.

If your MOQ is very low (5/10) maybe it can happen at that price.

Too expensive for me to buy for the novelty since I use an ergo board as a daily driver but this is still a super cool design!
