I'm in. How could I not be?

Rama, you realize you now need to make some swank caps to fit those two wide keys...

Aww thanks heaps Jal mate, appreciate the support!

Hahaha yeah, I do realise this :P It's definitely something I want to do - what profile is your preference?  :-*

Cherry R3? Maybe have the 2u keys as an option for your Rama cap round 3  :thumb:

R3 Cherry wouldn't really be useful for anything other than this board, no?

And if it's not SA R3 or DSA profile Rama would have to make two molds, else the right hand vertical key would look all kinda wack  :))

Sorry I meant R1, as it can be used as a backspace button as well, increasing versatility. As for the vertical 2u key, perhaps Cherry profile R1-2 (the same as the '+' numpad key)? I guess that could work!

Gotcha, R1 could be cool  :thumb:

Ooo okay, I'll look into doing a set ;)
 
UPDATE: The new pcb by Machine Industries is almost complete, it will come fully assembled sans switches :)

It now sports a Atmel 32U, same as the M10!

Hey mate, Just the ATMEGA32U version - but if you specifically want the ATTINY version as well, I have a few of the PCBs left from the prototype :)

So chuck me your order number and I'll add it in if you wish :D

Hi.  I am extremely interested in this an the other model with more switches.  My concern is the software to program it.  When you release, will you have instructions and software to configure the switches?

When will this be ready to buy?  What is the expected shipping date? Cost to ship to USA? Thank you.

Hi Oatmeal! The software, I believe, is ready to be released! And the M4 will come with instructions and software to get you started :)

The M4-A is available now and is expected to ship next month, shipping is $8.50 USD! Preorders close soon though, in the next day or so

As for the bigger model with more switches, hopefully news will be announced soon, but unfortunately for now I can say nothing until agreements are in place :"(

I'll go in on another one. I can gift it, or maybe figure out a reason why I need to have one for each hand, and make this, well, 1% easier. Would the shipping on two be less than me simply making a second order, and if so, can you adjust that/invoice me/something to that effect, or is that just a hassle?

Hey mate, if you message me I can give you a free shipping coupon if you DM me for your first order number and I'll ship them together :)

The back-end system is kinda crap so I can't adjust/edit existing orders Q_Q

Replied!

How are the numbers looking Rama? If you need more last minute orders I might be able to stretch my budget a bit and get an extra one assuming I can combine shipping with my previous order? Let me know if you're desperate for more orders  :)

Awesome, good to see it's going ahead despite not meeting MoQ, and having everything already soldered (Except switches) is also a plus for noobs like me. I'm going to use this as a controller for a Pi 3 music/streamer of sorts.

Yeah man, just really want to see it happen! The assembled PCB's are costing a lot more than the previous but it will make it a much more complete product :)

Using mine for music stuff as well, one of them at least! Gotta take photos of your pi setup when you get it :D

Oh sweet! Cannot wait to see what it looks like in your setup.

 I'd hit up some artisans on the forum for sure, I recently got CozCaps to make me a custom set for my HHKB, and I could not be happier with them. They really are amazing :O

Thanks guys!

Prototype bare PCB came in :) Will use it for test fitting whilst Machine in the UK will be testing the components.

Once it's all tested and fitted - will put the order through for the assembled PCBs!

That's pretty! Do we get to choose what colour we get or will it be Russian Roulette?

The one with the M4 will be the one I'm holding ^_^ I will probably chuck in a few with some orders though!

Mate, no worries at all! I honestly just really want to see these out there on peoples desks <3 Nothing makes me happier than seeing people enjoy the work I put out and getting feedback from the community!

Update on the GroupBuy is that the money is still transferring to the manufacturer, always scares me transferring that much money to another bank account D:

Rama what's this new stainless steel keycap on your store?
;) It's a highly polished machined stainless steel cap with PVD coating! I haven't put up the GroupBuy on Geekhack yet, but I will shortly :D
It's using a new agnostic profile which stands at 10.8MM tall and is very doped and rounded so it should be pretty nice to press :P

Awww bro :( Don't worry! I want to do a cheaper cap after this, this one is crazy expensive I realise D: Stainless Steel + Mirror polishing is a costly process, I'm actually using a watch manufacturer to get the tolerances and finishes I require :P

Trying to explore the use off different materials, I really think it's going to give a unique feeling with these. The weight, the liquidy finish, the very rounded dome that your finger will sit into. But yee, cheaper caps next!!

I would like one but this is not a great time for me :(

But yes I'm all for exploring different materials, brass and bronze are pretty decent choices, relatively machinable and weighty. Copper is nice too but rather soft. Ti 6-4 is a pretty common alloy in my line of work, would like to see one eventually in a keycap  ;D

If you really really want to make it unusual, make it out of a nickel superalloy like Inco 718 or Waspaloy, but they are a ***** to machine  :p, and I'd imagine the selection criteria for these alloys (mechanical strength and low creep at 1500K+) is probably not too relevant in a keycap context  :rolleyes:
