Nice, looking forward to this board development, but how about sand-blasted instead of brush brass?

Not sure pc counts as a weight material. My understanding is weight material must be denser than the case material.
Will it come with a hotswap pcb?Of course! :)
Thanks for starting this IC. I'm very interested. Based on my experience with Doro67 which has a thick 3mm integrated plate, the undesirable hollow noise can be easily fixed with case foam.
Some suggestions for improvements are:
1. Please consider widening side bezels to match top and bottom for a more balanced look
2. Would be great if you can squeeze in underglow to hotswap PCB, but I understand this can be a challenge
3. Would be great if you can offer a custom case foam for noise management
4. Additional options for different case colors and finishes would be great (within reasonable variety, of course) (+1 for Navy)
5. Please make sure stabilizer cut-out accommodates 3rd party stabs like C3 Equalz, Everglide, etc. since some boards have had some fit issues
6. I'm ok with rounded edges as it adds a bit of retro feel, but not too round please
Questions/Requests:
1. Will the PCB have ESD protection?
2. Can you provide renders for bottom casing with underglow?
3. What's the typing angle?

New update... the case is no longer using an integrated plate! So as you may already be thinking, the name is no longer suited to the case, so I have created a second form for you guys to vote on which name you think is best.
Thanks for the feedback so far

Thanks for the update. Can you then add carbon fiber plate as an option? Thanks for adding my name suggestion to the new survey form!
Any chance for the hotswap version to support stepped capslock (even as stepped-only)? It would be a rara avis, the hotswap fans are always left behind when it comes to stepped capslock.Will it come with a hotswap pcb?Of course! :)

Hi everyone,
Sorry for the lack of updates.
First of all the discord server was deleted for some reason... I will come up with a solution (worst case scenario i will just make another one)
Second; not much has changed however I have given the design to KBDfans and we have gathered all the info to design the PCB, not much will be done at this point as Chinese New Year approaches. Just know that I am still working on this.
Thanks,
Dion
The discord seems still dead :( Just wonder how much on-track is this project? any estimated time of GB?
Thanks.
And I really, really, *really* would love to see that little square above the right arrow key be an actual button, not just a light-up accent. :)
Make it have a little bit of click, like a New Nintendo 3DS face button. :)

I don't really have an estimated time for the GB anymore unfortunately as I have been SUPER busy with other stuff. But I am making minor adjustments to get it sent out for the quote, then the next step is to get the PCB designed, and move forward from there.
Sorry about the inactivity and lack of updates though
This has to be the best looking 75% so far. If you can ISO I'm in.ISO will definitely be an option, don't worry!
like the weight design!Thank you! Just updated the post with some closeup renders of it
Will the little light-up square be a button? :olike the weight design!Thank you! Just updated the post with some closeup renders of it
Unfortunately not, its just and LED indicatorWill the little light-up square be a button? :olike the weight design!Thank you! Just updated the post with some closeup renders of it
Is there going to be a Discord up for this board?Sorry unfortunately not. The discord got deleted and I haven't had the time to set another one up, and I don't really see a need to as there wasn't much demand for it
will this be an unlimited GB or a FCFS sale? Would love to get this board without having anxiety to compete with others. Also, thank you for doing a 75% board, great work!It will be FCFS, but we will decide on a fair number depending on the amount of interest there is. Thanks!
will the square light be programmable?Yes, most likely through VIA
Somehow the rounded edges and the proportions remind me of the Cherry G80-11800 and 11900.
Do you have a render of the internals? What does the plate look like, and where are the mounting points?
what's the purpose of the pcb underglow? i dont think there's any light pass through if im correctIt would be there for those who purchase a Polycarb/Acrylic case

sorry, potentially nooby question here - if the pcb doesn't have per key rgb, does that mean that the square won't illuminate a coloured light?
just wondering before I fill in that new pcb form :)
do you think this'll be a good budget keyb or will this be expensive?I think it will be fairly average. Not expensive, but not cheap either. I will have a finalised price soon, so keep an eye out for that

Do you have a Discord server where I can follow this board?
Is there any sight of a possible start of the GB? :-XPCB is being designed. Case has been sent out for a quote and sample (if its ready).
will this board be sold on other vendors than kbdfans? Eu here :)
Num/Caps LED is a welcome feature, the overall design looks cool. Im mostly consernd about shipping customs on this thing if its only sold on KDBfans.
Im in if i have the funds. :))

I don't want to make any promises, but I would like to say ~2 months (but take this with a grain of salt)

Why is the only option of picking the 4 colors in this? Out of these 4 colors my favorite is; *(Your Number One Choice)Its there to see what the last colour option would be... although you may not like any of them, i just want to see what your favourite out of the 4 is so i can see what would be more popular :)
I don't like any of the 4 colors you're forcing us to pick. And I can't submit without picking?????
Like I said I don't like any of them. It'll just skew your results. Can't I also double pick the same color?Why is the only option of picking the 4 colors in this?

The logo has been decided as "Updated Font 1"
You can check the "Renders" section to see how it looks
For now, the main thing we need to be finished is the PCB. Once this is finished I will be able to give you a finalised price prediction, and the GB will progress much quicker.
Thanks!

New update;
1. First sample was made however, unfortunately there was a small mistake in the design. This will be fixed and the next sample will be made ASAP!
2. Taeha Types will be streaming a full build of the Bounce75 once the final sample is finished (Twitch (https://www.twitch.tv/taehatypes) | Youtube (https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCMHXMAeKkI6HXlPfLiYvo9g) | Website (https://www.taehatypes.com/))
Is this group buy happening, or was there not enough demand?Still happening, currently just waiting on the new samples to get done before we finish everything off for the GB
Is the intention to make an ISO compatible hotswap version, or would it just be the solder version that's ISO compatible? The options for ISO hotswap boards are extremely limited, so I'm wondering if I should just learn how to solder if I want a really nice custom mechanical keyboard.
Hope all is going well with the prototype. I'm looking forward to seeing the Taeha Types livestream.
• Watched tutorials
• Bought supplies
• Tried practice75 and a through-hole kit
• Both boards worked
• I'm an idiot - you should give it a shot

Unfortunately we won't be doing ISO hotswap, only on the solder version
