[IC] Fox Lab PCBs reproduction
« on: Thu, 02 May 2019, 14:13:12 »
This is an IC for reproducing all the previous Fox Lab PCBs including Orange 80, Time TKL, Orange 75, Leaf 80, and Leaf 60.

A round of PCBs can be manufactured whenever the MOQ for a certain PCB is met.

Please fill up this form if you need a replacement PCB for your Fox Lab boards.
Filling up this form does not guarantee you will receive the invoice in a short time.

I haven't got a formal quote yet but I plan to keep it about the same as the original price if not lower. This reproduction is not for profit.

Fantastic to hear! I might be in for a Leaf 80 PCB as they are also ALPS-compatible.

The Leaf 60 PCB is only compatible for the same board, right? It won't be cross-compatible with any other similar boards?

Hello - somewhat unrelated, but was interested in having another plate cut for my Orange 80. Any chance you could share file or consider doing plate retro plate run , also?

Very happy to see this, Senter. I'm having a couple Time plates cut for me as we spoke about over email a few months ago, this makes my life quite a bit easier.

Submitted for a Time PCB (may add another when the MOQ has been reached) as well as an extra for my Leaf 60 since I forgot to get one during GB and I probably shouldn't gamble on that.

I would be happy to help get all these boards into qmk_firmware/QMK Configurator for both the native QMK pcb and boot mapper ones. If you're interested please shoot me a message =).

Yeah I'd be happy to foot the cost and take on the process myself if plate files were made available. Just didn't know which option Senter preferred, if at all, they are his work.

I actually need a new pcb for my Orange Pad. It just stopped working one day, and I haven't been able to get it to work since.
I long for the day when I find a beamspring. (At a not insane price)

In for 1 Orange75 PCB. WOuld definitely be in for an OrangePad PCB as well if they were offered.

Also after plates for both Orange75 & OrangePad.

Thanks so much for setting this up for the current PCBs! Been having trouble finding Orange75 pcbs in the wild.

My orange80 pcb died. I think it is the usb connector that was damaged by one of the custom usb cable you can buy on massdrop.

I am going to try to repair it but I could use a new one just in case I fail.

Hey [mention]senter [/mention]

Any chance this is still active? I’d love to have 2 solderable PCBs for my Leaf60.

Gave up on my personal data filling out the form. Do hope it’s not in vain :)

Would really appreciate any update, whether it’s good or bad news!

I ported the Leaf 80 to QMK just FYI if that helps anyone. Right now it isn't pushed/merged yet but I'll post a comment when I do that this week.
Also I only added ANSI support right now, no ISO or tsangan.
