Hi all. So I'm still looking at stainless and PVD coating. It's really, really expensive, but I'm still kind of digging it. I'm told it's fantastically durable and all the photos I've seen make it look awesome. Because the entire assembly would also be stainless steel, the case would be
enormously heavy. Before I invest the huge amount of money required to get a prototype in Stainless Steel with PVD, I wanted to ask if literally anyone would be up for a steel PVD case if the cost were around $500-600, as I think it almost inevitably would be.
Also, I was out of town (back in Boston) for a couple of weeks and am just now catching up correspondence. Sorry I didn't answer your questions here earlier, but see below.
Just to make certain: can we expect a three degree angle on the Heavy-6 without risers?
Affirmative.
Motorsport yellow + GMK Serika gonna be lit.
Agreed. I'm actually really excited about this color/finish.
It's hard but not impossible. However next project are RF numpad and tkl bag. (2019 hhkb? )
Everything you said.
Just had a thought - can we see INSIDE the prototype? I wonder how much space is in there.
There is quite a lot of space to accommodate the sub-PCB. I have made some updates to the design as described above compared to the prototype I showed last, which includes a pretty significant change to that interior space, so I'll go ahead and wait until the next prototype comes back to me to take photos of the interior. But if I forget when I post the new prototype photos, feel free to remind me.
