Rules:

1§. Your package might be bent when it arrives, i will pack them after the packaging material i have available, but i can't make choose how the shipping company in your country treats the package. My experience from the last GB was that 60% off the plates where reported slightly bent, but after one night under a heavy book, was okay. I had a package to Asia who was totally unusable without a heatgun and other tools. 

2§. If you can't pay the invoice by the invoice deadline, i won't ship the package to you. Leave me a message if you want to extend this deadline. I can't promise anything.

Will you have PCB mount stabilizers as an option?

Yes.

I am in on this as soon as you put the order form up.

Great to hear!

[kennardsmith]

Super excited for this!

[jdcarpe]

Count me in for at least one plate. I trust the design.

Wait Can I buy one of those PCB's without getting the plate since I got one from you in the round 1 plates, and still need a pcb :x

That should work, yes Not before the GB starts though.

Sprit's PCB's are very nice. I got two and built one using one of LeandreN's ANSI plates. Once you figure out the key layout program everything works great.

I also have a b.face winkeyless board. It is similar to Sprit's but also has the option for RGB led's on the bottom controlled by a second ATTINY85. Bought these as a bare board with just the controller parts. Soldering the controller parts is extra, diodes/soldering are extra, led resistors/soldering are extra.  If you don't mind spending the time soldering it's not too expensive. It uses the same key layout editor, with more options for the RGB leds. They ship DHL so buying a single board is expensive.

Hmmmmm I might want another plate. This is what your first plate looks like with a blue SPRiT PCB: http://imgur.com/a/PnrzE

Great to have more options.

Hear that people? You can trust the design

Thanks for letting me use your design JD.

Thinking about hoping on this and using it instead of an Infinity setup. Those sprit boards are all SMD already soldered on? I assume LED's are not by default.

I'm pretty tempted to switch my pcb/plate to this build instead. Thanks!

Presoldered for 45$, pretty good price
LEDs are unfortunately not included, but I might have it as an extra option beside.

I paid $120 for my two Sprit boards shipped to the USA. This is a good deal especially if you are getting it with a plate.

[zenless]

Yeah. Going to jump on this and go with it over the infinity board build. Great deal and good layout options. Watching this thread!

A Europe based GB for a 60%, sounds amazing.
Very interested in what kind of cases you will offer.

I won`t be selling cases unfortunately. Just giving recomdations to you for your 60% build.

So what about the PCB? Are they excluded too?

PCBs will be an optional add-on with the plate. It will also be shipped with the plate

I bought several of those plastic cases from Aliexpress. They go on sale periodically, once was $17 each and then a few weeks ago it was $13 each. I bought 2 each time. In the first batch I got a black and a white. The black one was a little warped. It sit flat on a table but the left side was narrower than the right. I had to dremel out a bit of the inside so the space bar stabilizer wire (cherry plate mount) would not rub the case. The white one was just fine. In the second batch I bought 2 white ones. Both are fine. Comparing the 3 white ones the color is not consistent. Each alone looks fine but side by side they look different shades. At the price I paid I am happy with what I got.

As far as I can tell these are the same cases you can get with a third round Infinity or a KC60 on Massdrop. They look identical. I have both coming (eventually) so can compare them directly.

The hole for the DIP switch is on the small size. One switch is inaccessible on a V60. The Sprit PCB does not need this hole. There are no DIP switches on the Sprit PCB.

The only thing that these cases need is a sticker or plate to cover the ugly injection molding sprue mark on the bottom.

[faxe]

So everythings except in switch led comes presoldered? Controller, diodes, resistors for led? Really interesting althoug I just finished a build with the last plate and a winkeyless b.face pcb....

Yes that's right! Time for your second 60% build!

[TalkingTree]

How much is shipping for the PCB alone?

[Fire Brand]

How much is shipping for the PCB alone?

more than likely the exact same price as shipping for a plate, given its the same size and the weight is about the same

[norrinrad]

Ooo would be very interested in this! To run the keyboard, would I need anything else apart from switches and diodes?

A case, no diodes is needed.

Can't to see the choices of colors for the plate.

[inanis]

I too am looking forward to seeing those color options.

Seriously though, waiting for samples. Should arrive next week! We have to decide the colors though!

I want at least one option to be blue to match the new SPRiT PCB and the upcoming AUNK PCB from Vinny. But thanks for your input!

[jdcarpe]

I get that, but you never see the pcb under the plate. Plate color should match or coordinate with the case instead.

Good point. I still like blue though.

Anyway, I think I need to make a poll soon.

[mashby]

A WYSE blue would be awesome.

[LeandreN]

UPDATE:

A lot of stuff happening next week.

I am setting up the shipping system. Please leave feedback!

The order form is almost ready. Samples for the PCB, plate, springs and stabs arriving next week. A huge thanks to SPRiT.

Do any one have a site where i can make a shipping calculator to make this easy?
