Looked at the thread name
Thought that this board will be the same as Prophet and Angel but in TKL size
Saw that it is just an isolation mount board
Disappointment was immeasurable and day was ruined
Frog TKL , Mr Suit TKL , Angle TKL , Cloudline TKL (and others whom I forgot) and now this.
My wallet can't take this any longer u_u
Pretty interesting, will await for sound tests but looks like a banger!

This keyboard ran in July. Should be shipping soon. https://mechvault.net/products/phoenix-keyboard-kit
Phoenix was named after reviving the JD45 layout for the Phoenix45. A lot of people were asking ProjectCain for a premium version. So he ran the Phoenix. Aluminum case with beautiful brass weight. I thought you should know. Gl with gb!
Can't wait for it! Hope it's unlimited similar to Prophet and Angle. Bought almost all of your boards so far!
Damn, great job.
Really hope it's unlimited. Would you consider half plate option for this, or is it not possible ?
turns out I can do more than 1 thing

Yeah, although the name isn't copyrighted, I still think it's a bit of a problem to name a keyboard the same as another one that already exists. I hope this one gets renamed so that there won't be any misunderstandings or confusion, but I won't blame the OP since it's obviously just an oversight on their part.

Phoenix (TKL) actually predates Phoenix (40%) by around a year. A private GB ran in February of this year. I can’t foresee any misunderstandings here.

The asymmetry on the screwholes are driving me crazy.

It's very deliberate in order to help the mounting system whilst being able to maintain the overall design language.
beautiful and unique, excellent all around ... i've always loved this board's unique silhouette

Now that you mentioned it I can't unsee it. Is there a way to hide the center screws? Love the bottom of the board but the asymmetry stains it.
You don't think the TKL in the title would've given it away?This keyboard ran in July. Should be shipping soon. https://mechvault.net/products/phoenix-keyboard-kit

Do you already know how heavy the 2 versions will be?
built brass base is 4.5kg and the alu is around 2.5 less so likely around 2kgFrom Discord
great work Max!

Full aluminum board is very-very far from being light :)
Board sounds lovely. Keen to get in on the public run :D
Is this board available in WK?
Oops sorry. I clearly didn't read the entire post. Sorry.

I understand there's a reason for it. It's a very clean looking board so the asymmetry really sticks out like a sore thumb to me.
Speaking of mounting system, any exploded renders available?
This looks nice. Would it be technically feasible to make the bottom screws hidden like a keycult no 2, or to use an offset USB port?
I will admit I don't love the bottom logo of the board -
Is the production version of mechstudio’s mk88 the same as that in Kwerdenker's photo's.
Like with multi layout: F12 and F13. 7U and 6.25U?
Could i also ask the thickness of the PCB? Is it 1.6 or 1.2mm?
Thanks
I will admit I don't love the bottom logo of the board - it looks kind of cheesy to me - but overall I really like the aesthetics of the board and will likely be in for a brass bottom.
To confirm, a hiney 88 w/ db will be compatible?
Will the red alu look like the bottom case in the OP? With all alu will the bottom color match the top case? Will the alu plate be the same color as the top case?
Thanks for clarifying.Will the red alu look like the bottom case in the OP? With all alu will the bottom color match the top case? Will the alu plate be the same color as the top case?
The red alu is this colour. With a full aluminium board you can choose to have the 3 parts different colours or matching
Your post definitely comes off as snide, so what’s the point in pointing out something as perhaps being passive aggressive?I have yet to try a nice implementation of sandwich gasket mount.
This is probably my best bet.
Looks good so far :thumb:
I don't think the Alu version is well priced for an Unlimited run, maybe you don't want that many people to join IDK. The premium asked for the brass option makes a lot more sense all together and this would probably the option I will go for.
More photos would also be nice (sides and usb part of the board) to have a better overall idea.
This seems a little passive aggressive to me (saying maybe he doesn't want many people to join). The pricing is incredibly fair for the quality of the design for both alu/brass. We've seen multiple unlimited GBs go above the $700-800 mark in recent times. Maybe I'm misinterpreting. ;D
