I arrived late to this party, but I wonder if there is any chance to get my hands on a PCB (assembled), and a plate? I may add my own switches and caps. Does it fit a standard Poker case?

I have to say that I would LOVE a metal 75% case, but that is totally out of my budget right now. I need to sell a couple of my build projects to afford that.

Its everything I ever wanted. HARD anodizing, and winkeyless setup, and of course, 75%. If I go broke from this, so be it. I won't need anything for a while

Hey Sprit,

Updated my order according to the new developments  :D

Is the metal case design more or less finalised then? Can we really mix and match with acrylic? Is it ok to order a selection of just the middle layers in acrylic for example, to add to the case later?

Hello! MrChunky!   ;)

The Uniform Bottom Flatform is actully the key in my concept.  It shares all the dimensions and holes with Metal and Acrylic.
The Metal design shares the Bottom Flatform Layer with Acrylic, as You guys seen!  :)
The Metal versions need to be finalized for the corner and edge angles.   It is 2- or 3- layered, You can mix the Layers with any material (metal, Acrylic, or any in the future)
  I will show 2-layered  Model 2 Cases for Round 2 very soon,  looking a little bit slim (hight : Model 1 (28mm),  Model 2 = (21mm),  sharing the Bottom and Middle Layer with Model 1 too! 
Model 1  & 2 Cases will be available Always, all together.   ;) 

I am focusing on Round 1 Shipping, it will end soon hopely!  :)    When each order is ready to ship, I will message each of You, so dont worry please!   :-* :-*

Hello!  Dear Pacifist !  ;)

All metal,  2-layered will be most Solid,  IMO.    (Redardless of Model 1 or 2)

TY blue, just found it. Is there a place where I can see some mockups of the layouts supported by the 60%? There is just a text reference in the OP. If I understood it well, the only changes are at the bottom row, and the splitter backspace. Is that right?

Also are there any preview pictures of the 75% case? (What exactly is an 87% layout also? I didn't really find anything when I googled it.)

Oh... whoops I was always under the impression that 75% keyboards were TKL for some reason.  :rolleyes:

Where exactly does the plate sit in an acrylic place? (Is it between top and middle or middle and bottom? or is there no plate and the middle one serves as the plate...?)
Also, are invoices for round 2 being sent out after MOQ is met?

Allo!  moreen!  ;)
You need  PCB, Switch, Case, (Plate), Stabilizer,  in my opinion.
With the 105 keycaps, You may need the Controle, Alt, and Spacebar in proper size for Quebecois.
The keypad will work OK,  as in the other ISO layout.  ( I will test it with French keycaps and OS language input,  I will tell You)

Hey Sprit!

Just wondering are the plates still under production? My order was in 1st round, has a 60% plate, 2 cases (1x60% 1x80%) and 1  60%PCB.

No hurries, just making sure they're on their way!

Keep up the good work!

Getting ready for the daunting switch work...  This process takes forever which is why my build has stalled.  I need to just buck up and do it. 

Lube, Sticker, Re-spring, Sip Sockets and LEDs...

On a brighter note, my lube station is looking pretty good.  :)

No, I bought like 20+ strips of them and clipped them all...


(well, I clipped a crap ton.  I still have a bunch in strips...)

The FaceW pcb can handle off center left shift correct?  I know it will take a custom plate but standard Poker 2 layout with off center left shift and costar stabs is possible correct?

What exactly is an off-center left shift?

I meant caps lock....for the stepped caps lock key.  I clearly haven't had enough coffee yet.

I know the feeling. :)

Yes, it supports both centered and off-centered Caps Lock, as shown in the photo infiniti posted above. :thumb:

Thanks infiniti and JD! :thumb:

Now to source the plate   :)

I want to fill the form, but I have a few questions.

What does this question mean?
Quote
Acryl Case ! - All Laser & CNC machined
(Solid 8T & 10T Structure)

What is this top plate? A plate to match key layout, like HHKB's one? I also don't understand the difference between Model 1 and Model 2.
Quote
* Model 1 (70USD) / Model 2 (58USD + Top Plate $22)

Which acrylic finish is less glossy? Matte or smooth?

Also, from where this item will be shipped and is there a way to calculate shipping prices?
